In an inner product space, two vectors are orthogonal if their inner product
is zero. In a normed space, numerous notions of orthogonality have been
introduced via equivalent propositions to the usual orthogonality, e.g.
orthogonal vectors satisfy the Pythagorean law. In 2010, Kikianty and
Dragomir [9] introduced the p-HH-norms (1 ? p < ?) on the Cartesian square of
a normed space. Some notions of orthogonality have been introduced by
utilizing the 2-HH-norm [10]. These notions of orthogonality are closely
related to the classical Pythagorean orthogonality and Isosceles
orthogonality. In this paper, a Carlsson type orthogonality in terms of the
2-HH-norm is considered, which generalizes the previous definitions. The main
properties of this orthogonality are studied and some useful consequences are
obtained. These consequences include characterizations of inner product
space.
