Abstract

For fixed s1s\geq 1 and t1,t2(0,1/2)t_{1},t_{2}\in(0,1/2) we prove that the inequalities Gs(t1a+(1t1)b,t1b+(1t1)a)A1s(a,b)>AG(a,b)G^{s}(t_{1}a+(1-t_{1})b,t_{1}b+(1-t_{1})a)A^{1-s}(a,b)>AG(a,b) and Gs(t2a+(1t2)b,t2b+(1t2)a)A1s(a,b)>L(a,b)G^{s}(t_{2}a+(1-t_{2})b,t_{2}b+(1-t_{2})a)A^{1-s}(a,b)>L(a,b) hold for all a,b>0a,b>0 with aba\neq b if and only if t11/22s/(4s)t_{1}\geq 1/2-\sqrt{2s}/(4s) and t21/26s/(6s)t_{2}\geq 1/2-\sqrt{6s}/(6s). Here G(a,b)G(a,b), L(a,b)L(a,b), AG(a,b)AG(a,b) and A(a,b)A(a,b) are the geometric, logarithmic, arithmetic-geometric and arithmetic means of aa and bb, respectively.
