Description
Summary:<p>Abstract</p> <p>In this paper, we extend some old and give some new refinements of the Jensen-Steffensen inequality. Further, we investigate the log-convexity and the exponential convexity of functionals defined via these inequalities and prove monotonicity property of the generalized Cauchy means obtained via these functionals. Finally, we give several examples of the families of functions for which the results can be applied.</p> <p>2010 <it>Mathematics Subject Classification</it>. 26D15.</p>
