Functions Like Convex Functions

Journal of Function Spaces, 2015
The paper deals with convex sets, functions satisfying the global convexity property, and positive linear functionals. Jensen's type inequalities can be obtained by using convex combinations with the common center. Following the idea of the common center,

Integrating ESG Into Business Strategy: Evidence on Firm Performance From European High‐Materiality Industries

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into corporate business strategy has become progressively important, particularly for firms operating in high‐materiality industries where nonfinancial risks are more pronounced. This study examines the association between ESG performance and firm performance among European

A Refinement and a divided difference reverse of Jensen's inequality with applications [PDF]

, 2016
A refinement and a new sharp reverse of Jensen's inequality for convex functions in terms of divided diferences is obtained. Applications for means, the Hölder inequality and for f-divergence measures in information theory are also ...

Beyond a Technocentric Transition: A Diverse Economies Perspective for Social Justice in Circular Economy Business Models

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circular economy, dominated by capitalocentric, technocentric, and eco‐modernist discourses, risks perpetuating systemic injustice because of its limited consideration of the social and of what is possible. In this article, we examine how social justice can be embedded into circular business models (CBMs)—key drivers of the circular ...

Improved Hermite–Hadamard Inequality Bounds for Riemann–Liouville Fractional Integrals via Jensen’s Inequality

Fractal and Fractional
This paper derives the sharp bounds for Hermite–Hadamard inequalities in the context of Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals. A generalization of Jensen’s inequality called the Jensen–Mercer inequality is used for general points to find the new and ...
