Converse Jensen-Steffensen inequality (Q657829): Difference between revisions

The authors prove a converse of the Jensen-Steffensen inequality, along with two related inequalities. The equality cases are also investigated. We quote only the following result: Let \(f;[c,d]\to [a,b]\) be a continuous and monotonic function. Then for any continuous and convex function \(g:[a,b]\to \mathbb{R}\) one has the inequality \[ {1\over d-c} \int^d_c g(f(t))\,dt\leq g(a)+ g(b)- 2g\Biggl({a+b\over 2}\Biggr)+ g(\overline f), \] where \(\overline f={1\over d-c} \int^d_c f(t)\,dt\).
