Interpolations of Jensen's Integral Inequality [PDF]
Weighted and unweighted interpolations of general order are given for Jensen’s integral inequality. Various upper–bound estimates are made for the differences between the interpolates and some convergence results derived.

Generalizations of the Jensen–Mercer Inequality via Fink’s Identity [PDF]
We generalize an integral Jensen–Mercer inequality to the class of n-convex functions using Fink’s identity and Green’s functions. We study the monotonicity of some linear functionals constructed from the obtained inequalities using the definition of n ...

ABSTRACT Research on how to leverage high‐performance work systems (HPWS) and other strategic human resource management (HRM) systems to improve performance outcomes has long been a cornerstone of the HRM discipline. This study offers a comprehensive mapping of the field through bibliometric analysis and a thematic synthesis of 3503 peer‐reviewed ...

On an Open Problem by Feng Qi Regarding an Integral Inequality [PDF]
In the article, a functional inequality in abstract spaces is established, which gives a new affirmative answer to an open problem posed by Feng Qi in Several integral inequalities which appeared in J. Inequal. Pure Appl. Math. 1 (2000), no. 2, Art. 19.

In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the discrete Jensen inequality to be satisfied for real (not necessarily nonnegative) weights. The result generalizes and completes the classical Jensen–Steffensen inequality. The validity of

ESG Performance and Credit Risk: Evidence From Chinese Manufacturing Companies
ABSTRACT This study investigates the effect of corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance on credit risk using a sample of manufacturing firms listed on China's Shanghai and Shenzhen A‐share markets from 2009 to 2021. Employing fixed effects, the generalised method of moments, and instrumental variable models, we find that ...

Inconsistency of the Capital Asset Pricing Model in a Multi‐Currency Environment
ABSTRACT The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is a widely adopted model in asset pricing theory and portfolio construction because of its intuitive nature. One of its main conclusions is that there exists a global market portfolio that each rational investor should hold in proportion to the risk‐free asset. In this paper, we demonstrate theoretically

Generalized integral Jensen inequality
In this paper we introduce necessary and sufficient conditions for a real-valued function to be preinvex. Some properties of preinvex functions and new versions of Jensen’s integral type inequality in this setting are given.

A uinivariate extension of Jensens inequality
The result in this paper explains some of the qualitative nature of Jensen's inequality. It is shown that the more disperse the distribution of a random variable is, the smaller is the expectation of any concave function of it. This result can be used to show the inadequacy of some current methods of reporting environmental data by using geometric ...

Identifying Peer Effects in Networks with Unobserved Effort and Isolated Students
ABSTRACT Peer influence on effort devoted to some activity is often studied when effort is unobserved, and the researcher instead observes an outcome that combines effort with other shocks. For instance, in education, achievement measures such as GPA reflect both effort and idiosyncratic GPA shocks.
