Let $V,W$ be complex inner product spaces. Suppose $T: V to W$ is a linear map, then we define
$$|T|:=supv$$ where $|v_V|:=sqrtlangle v,vrangle$ and $|Tv|_W:=sqrtlangle Tv,Tvrangle$.

          $begingroup$

          For $k = 1$, the inequality becomes an identity. So, start with the special case $k = 2$:
          $$
          beginarrayll
          & ||U_1 U_2 - V_1 V_2||\ \
          = & ||U_1 U_2 - V_1 U_2 + V_1 U_2 - V_1 V_2||\ \
          = &
          || ( U_1 - V_1) U_2 + V_1 (U_2 - V_2) || \ \
          leq & ||( U_1 - V_1) U_2 || + ||V_1 (U_2 - V_2) ||.\
          endarray
          $$

          (The last inequality is the triangle inequality.) Now, since $U_2$ is unitary, we have $||U_2|| = 1$, so
          $$
          || ( U_1 - V_1) U_2 || leq || U_1 - V_1 ||.
          $$

          A similar bound obtains for $||V_1 (U_2 - V_2) ||$.



          This should give you enough "building blocks".:)
