Proof The sufficiency property is obvious. We prove the necessary property of the condition by mathematical induction in the following. For , there exists such that for any , . Since for (),

Without loss of generality, we estimate the case of , e.t.

Lemma 5 Suppose that , (), , , , , (≥0) is a measurable function of −λ-degree in such that
If are measurable functions in (), , then (1) for (), we have

Proof (1) For (), by the Hölder inequality (cf. [18]) and (7), it follows
For , by the Hölder inequality again, it follows
(14)
Then by (7), we have (12). (Note: for , we do not use the Hölder inequality again in the above.) (2) For , (), by the reverse Hölder inequality and in the same way, we obtain the reverses of (12). □
