For two positive real numbers $x$ and $y$ let $H$, $G$, $A$ and $Q$ be the harmonic mean, the geometric mean, the arithmetic mean and the quadratic mean of $x$ and $y$, respectively. In this note, we prove that \begin{equation*} A\cdot G\ge…
We characterize continuous, symmetric and homogeneous means $M$ that can be represented in the form \begin{equation*} \frac{1}{M(x,y)}=\int_0^1 \frac{dt}{N\left(\tfrac{x+y}{2}-t\tfrac{x-y}{2},\tfrac{x+y}{2}+t\tfrac{x-y}{2}\right)}.…
Harmonic, Geometric, Arithmetic, Heronian and Contraharmonic means have been studied by many mathematicians. In 2003, H. Evens studied these means from geometrical point of view and established some of the inequalities between them in using…
For functions defined on the $n$-dimensional hypercube $I_n (r) = \{{\bm{x}} \in \mathbb{R}^n ~\vert~ \vert x_i \vert \le r,~ i = 1, 2, \ldots , n\}$ and harmonic therein, we establish certain analogues of Gauss surface and volume…
It is proved that harmonic functions are characterized by harmonicity of their spherical means, for which purpose the iterated spherical means are used. The similar characterization of solutions to the modified Helmholtz equation…
We give an upper bound for the weighted geometric mean using the weighted arithmetic mean and the weighted harmonic mean. We also give a lower bound for the weighted geometric mean. These inequalities are proven for two invertible positive…
We investigate the representation of homogeneous, symmetric means in the form M(x,y)=\frac{x-y}{2f((x-y)/(x+y))}. This allows for a new approach to comparing means. As an example, we provide optimal estimate of the form (1-\mu)min(x,y)+ \mu…
We characterize $p-$harmonic functions in the Heisenberg group in terms of an asymptotic mean value property, where $1<p<\infty$, following the scheme described in Manfredi et al. (2009) for the Euclidean case. The new tool that allows us…
We establish sharp $L^p$ integral mean estimates for $(\alpha,\beta)$-harmonic functions on the unit disk. Explicit bounds for the functions and their partial derivatives are obtained in terms of boundary data, by means of the associated…
If $\sigma$ is a symmetric mean and $f$ is an operator monotone function on $[0, \infty)$, then $$f(2(A^{-1}+B^{-1})^{-1})\le f(A\sigma B)\le f((A+B)/2).$$ Conversely, Ando and Hiai showed that if $f$ is a function that satisfies either one…
The harmonic numbers and generalized harmonic numbers appear frequently in many diverse areas such as combinatorial problems, many expressions involving special functions in analytic number theory and analysis of algorithms. The aim of this…
Let $K,M,N$ denote three bivariate means. In the paper, the author prove the asymptotic formulas for the gamma function have the form of% \begin{equation*} \Gamma \left( x+1\right) \thicksim \sqrt{2\pi }M\left( x+\theta,x+1-\theta \right)…
A new characterization of harmonic functions is obtained. It is based on quadrature identities involving mean values over annular domains and over concentric spheres lying within these domains or on their boundaries. The analogous result…

In this paper, we present the greatest values $\alpha$, $\lambda$ and $p$, and the least values $\beta$, $\mu$ and $q$ such that the double inequalities $\alpha D(a,b)+(1-\alpha)H(a,b)<T(a,b)<\beta D(a,b)+(1-\beta) H(a,b)$, $\lambda…
This paper investigates the concept of harmonic functions of bounded mean oscillation, starting from John-Nirenberg's pioneering studies, under a renewed formalism, suitable for bringing out some fundamental properties inherent in it. In…
We begin by shortly recalling a generalized mean value inequality for subharmonic functions, and two applications of it: first a weighted boundary behavior result (with some new references and remarks), and then a borderline case result to…
In this paper we introduce the quadratic weighted geometric mean for invertible elements x, y in a Hermitian unital Banach star-algebra and provide some inequalities for this mean under various assumptions for the elements involved.
