Inequalities for differentiable mappings and applications to special means of real numbers and to midpoint formula. (Q1412591): Difference between revisions

The author proves certain inequalities of Hadamard type for convex mappings. We quote the following result: Let \(| f'|\) be convex on \([a,b]\). Then \[ \Biggl| M_f(a, b)- f\Biggl({a+b\over 2}\Biggr)\Biggr|\leq {b-a\over 8} (| f'(a)|+| f'(b)|) \] (\(M_f(a,b)\) denotes the integral means of \(f\) on \([a,b]\)). Some applications for special means of two arguments are also pointed out. However, these results are not compared to the existing relations in the theory of means.
