Review text

Two refinements of Hadamard's inequalities for convex functions are presented. Let \(f\) be a convex function on \([a,b]\) and let \(\alpha,\beta\) be real numbers with \(\alpha\beta \geq 0\) and \(\alpha + \beta >0\). Then \[ f\left( \frac{a+b}{2}\right) \leq \frac{1}{(b-a)^2} \int_a^b\int_a^b f\left( \frac{\alpha x+\beta y}{\alpha+\beta} \right) dx dy \leq \frac{1}{b-a} \int_a^b f(x) dx . \] In addition, if \(\alpha \) is a continuous mapping of \([a,b]\) into \(R_{+}\) then \[ f\left( \frac{a+b}{2}\right) \leq \frac{1}{(b-a)^2} \int_a^b\int_a^b f\left( \frac{x+y}{2}\right) dx dy \] \[ \leq \frac{1}{(b-a)^2} \int_a^b\int_a^b \left(f\left( \frac{x\alpha(x)+y\alpha(y)}{\alpha(x)+\alpha(y)} \right)+ f \left(\frac{x\alpha(y) + y\alpha(x)}{\alpha(x)+\alpha(y)}\right)\right) dx dy \] \[ \leq \frac{1}{b-a} \int_a^b f(x) dx. \]
