Sharp geometric mean bounds for Neuman means (Q1725350): Difference between revisions

Summary: We find the best possible constants \(\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \beta_1, \beta_2 \in [0,1 / 2]\) and \(\alpha_3, \alpha_4, \beta_3, \beta_4 \in [1 / 2,1]\) such that the double inequalities \[ G(\alpha_1 a +(1 - \alpha_1) b, \alpha_1 b + (1 - \alpha_1) a) < N_{A G}(a, b) < G(\beta_1 a + (1 - \beta_1) b, \beta_1 b +(1 - \beta_1) a), \] \[ G(\alpha_2 a +(1 - \alpha_2) b, \alpha_2 b + (1 - \alpha_2) a) < N_{G A}(a, b) < G(\beta_2 a + (1 - \beta_2) b, \beta_2 b +(1 - \beta_2) a), \] \[ Q(\alpha_3 a +(1 - \alpha_3) b, \alpha_3 b + (1 - \alpha_3) a) < N_{Q A}(a, b) < Q(\beta_3 a + (1 - \beta_3) b, \beta_3 b +(1 - \beta_3) a), \] \[ Q(\alpha_4 a +(1 - \alpha_4) b, \alpha_4 b + (1 - \alpha_4) a) < N_{A Q}(a, b) < Q(\beta_4 a + (1 - \beta_4) b, \beta_4 b +(1 - \beta_4) a) \] hold for all \(a, b > 0\) with \(a \neq b\), where \(G\), \(A\), and \(Q\) are, respectively, the geometric, arithmetic, and quadratic means and \(N_{A G}\), \(N_{G A}\), \(N_{Q A}\), and \(N_{A Q}\) are the Neuman means.
