Several new cyclic Jensen type inequalities and their applications

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2019
We present some fundamental results and definitions regarding Jensen’s inequality with the aim of obtaining new generalizations of cyclic refinements of Jensen’s inequality from convex to higher order convex functions using Taylor’s formula.

The Applications of Functional Variants of Jensen's Inequality

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces and Applications, 2013
The paper is inspired by McShane's results on the functional form of Jensen's inequality for convex functions of several variables. The work is focused on applications and generalizations of this important result. At that, the generalizations of Jensen's

Cauchy type means for some generalized convex functions

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2021
In this paper, we establish Jensen’s inequality for s-convex functions in the first sense. By using Jensen’s inequalities, we obtain some Cauchy type means for p-convex and s-convex functions in the first sense.

New estimates for generalized Shannon and Zipf-Mandelbrot entropies via convexity results

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2020
Shannon and Zipf-Mandelbrot entropies have several applications in various fields such as ecology, statistics, physics and information theory etc. The aim of this article is to utilize some results of Jensen’s inequality for convex functions and to ...

Further Refinements of Jensen’s Type Inequalities for the Function Defined on the Rectangle

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
We give refinement of Jensen’s type inequalities given by Bakula and Pečarić (2006) for the co-ordinate convex function. Also we establish improvement of Jensen’s inequality for the convex function of two variables.

Generalizations of Shannon type inequalities via diamond integrals on time scales

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2023
The paper generalizes Shannon-type inequalities for diamond integrals. It includes two-dimensional Hölder’s inequality and Cauchy–Schwartz’s inequality, which help to prove weighted Grüss’s inequality for diamond integrals.

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Preferential trading in agriculture: New insights from a structural gravity analysis and machine learning

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

Reducing the gap of Jensen's inequality by using Wirtinger inequality

open access: yes, 2012
In the last decade, the Jensen's inequality has been intensively used in the context of time-delay or sampled-data systems since it is an appropriate tool to obtain tractable stability conditions expressed in terms linear matrix inequalities (LMI ...

Internet use and adolescent development: A conceptual model integrating behavioral and contextual theories

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the digital era, adolescent development is deeply embedded in the cyber environment. Despite ongoing debate on the benefits and/or risks that Internet use brings to adolescents in empirical studies, conceptual and theoretical discussion on the influences of the intensity and modalities of Internet use is peripheral.
