      The authors establishes certain operator inequalities that arise when the resistors in the Wheastone bridge in circuit theory are replaced by resistance boxes; when nonnegative numbers are replaced by positive operators on Hilbert space. They show that the geometric mean of two positive operators is the unique fixed point of a certain operator mapping that arises from consideration of the Wheastone bridge.
