    Abstract:

In this paper is defined an $n$-inner product of type $langle mathbf{a}_1,dots ,mathbf{a}_nvert mathbf{b}_1cdots  mathbf{b}_nrangle $ where $mathbf{a}_1,dots ,mathbf{a}_n$, $mathbf{b}_1, dots ,mathbf{b}_n$ are vectors from a vector space $V$. This definition generalizes the definition of Misiak of $n$-inner product [2], such that in special case if we consider only such pairs of sets ${  mathbf{a}_1,dots ,mathbf{a}_1}$ and ${  mathbf{b}_1cdots mathbf{b}_n}$ which differ for at most one vector, we obtain the definition of Misiak. The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality for this general type of $n$-inner product is proved and some applications are given.
