On some Hardy type inequalities involving generalized means [PDF]
Publicationes Mathematicae Debrecen, 2015 We discuss properties of certain generalization of Power Means proposed in 1971 by Carlson, Meany and Nelson. For any fixed parameter (k,s,q) and vector (v_1,...,v_n) they take the q-th power means of all possible k-tuples (v_{i_1},...,v_{i_k}), and then calculate the s-th power mean of the resulting vector of length C_n^k.

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT It is increasingly recognised by global research that extending out‐of‐home care (OOHC) until at least 21 years of age is the policy reform most likely to advance improved outcomes for care leavers. In recent years, all eight Australian jurisdictions (States and Territories) have introduced forms of extended care programs.

Jessen's functional, its properties and applications
Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2012 In this paper we consider Jessen's functional, defined by means of a positive isotonic linear functional, and investigate its properties. Derived results are then applied to weighted generalized power means, which yields extensions of some recent results,

New Quantum Estimates of Trapezium-Type Inequalities for Generalized ϕ-Convex Functions
Mathematics, 2019 In this paper, a quantum trapezium-type inequality using a new class of function, the so-called generalized ϕ -convex function, is presented. A new quantum trapezium-type inequality for the product of two generalized ϕ -convex functions is ...
