Characterizations of the equality of two-variable generalized quasiarithmetic means (Q2059965)

In this paper, the authors study the classes of two-variable functional means that extend Hölder, Gini and Stolarsky means in a natural way. These classes are the two-variable Bajraktarević, Cauchy and quasiarithmetic means. They derive and prove when the two-variable Bajraktarević and Cauchy means will be equal to the class of two-variable quasiarithmetic means under higher-order differentiability assumptions. The results obtained further extends the previous work of \textit{H. Alzer} and \textit{S. Ruscheweyh} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 129, No. 9, 2655--2662 (2001; Zbl 0979.26015)] which asserts inclusion instead of equality.
