Optimal Bounds for Neuman Means in Terms of Harmonic and Contraharmonic Means

الملخص EN

For a,b>0 with a≠b, the Schwab-Borchardt mean SB(a,b) is defined as SB(a,b)={b2-a2/cos-1(a/b) if ab.

In this paper, we find the greatest values of α1 and α2 and the least values of β1 and β2 in [0,1/2] such that H(α1a+(1-α1)b,α1b+(1-α1)a)

Similarly, we also find the greatest values of α3 and α4 and the least values of β3 and β4 in [1/2,1] such that C(α3a+(1-α3)b,α3b+(1-α3)a)

Here, H(a,b)=2ab/(a+b), A(a,b)=(a+b)/2, and C(a,b)=(a2+b2)/(a+b) are the harmonic, arithmetic, and contraharmonic means, respectively, and SHA(a,b)=SB(H,A), SAH(a,b)=SB(A,H), SCA(a,b)=SB(C,A), and SAC(a,b)=SB(A,C) are four Neuman means derived from the Schwab-Borchardt mean.
