Bounds for the combinations of Neuman-Sándor, arithmetic, and second Seiffert means in terms of contraharmonic mean (Q370293)

Summary: We give the greatest values \(r_1, r_2\) and the least values \(s_1, s_2\) in \((1/2, 1)\) such that the double inequalities \(C(r_1a + (1 - r_1)b, r_1b + (1 - r_1)a) < \alpha A(a, b) + (1 - \alpha)T(a, b) < C(s_1a + (1 - s_1)b, s_1b + (1 - s_1)a)\) and \(C(r_2a + (1 - r_2)b, r_2b + (1 - r_2)a) < \alpha A(a, b) + (1 - \alpha)M(a, b) < C(s_2a + (1 - s_2)b, s_2b + (1 - s_2)a)\) hold for any \(\alpha \in (0, 1)\) and all \(a, b > 0\) with \(a \neq b\), where \(A(a, b)\), \(M(a, b)\), \(C(a, b)\) and \(T(a, b)\) are the arithmetic, Neuman-Sándor, contraharmonic, and second Seiffert means of \(a\) and \(b\), respectively.
