Relative Information Functions and Their Type (a, ß) Generalizations.
We prove here that the Poincaré-Sobolev pointwise inequalities for the relative rearrangement can be considered as the root of a great number of inequalities in various sets not necessarily vector spaces. In particular, new interpolation inequalities can be derived.
Some properties of strongly Wright-convex functions are presented. In particular it is shown that a function f:D → ℝ, where D is an open convex subset of an inner product space X, is strongly Wright-convex with modulus c if and only if it can be represented in the form f(x) = g(x)+a(x)+c||x||², x ∈ D, where g:D → ℝ is a convex function and a:X → ℝ is an additive function. A characterization of inner product spaces by strongly Wright-convex functions is also given.
We present comparison theorems for the weighted quasi-arithmetic means and for weighted Bajraktarević means without supposing in advance that the weights are the same.
