Computer aided solution of the invariance equation for two-variable Gini means

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Our aim is to solve the so-called invariance equation in the class of two-variable Gini means Gp,q:p,qinR, i.e., to find necessary and sufficient conditions on the 6 parameters a,b,c,d,p,q such that the identity [G_{p,q}�ig(G_{a,b}(x,y),G_{c,d}(x,y)�ig)=G_{p,q}(x,y) qquad (x,y in R_+)] be valid. We recall that, for peqq, the Gini mean Gp,q is defined by [G_{p,q}(x,y):=(dfrac{x^p+y^p}{x^q+y^q})^{frac1{p-q}}qquad (x,y in R_+).] The proof uses the computer algebra system Maple V Release 9 to compute a Taylor expansion up to 12th order, which enables us to describe all the cases of the equality.
