AbstractThis paper gives extensions and improvements of Sherman’s inequality forn-convex functions obtained by using new identities which involve Green’s functions and Fink’s identity. Moreover, extensions and improvements of Majorization inequality as well as Jensen’s inequality are obtained as direct consequences. New inequalities between geometric, logarithmic and arithmetic means are also established.

New inequalities for the general case of convex functions defined on linear spaces which improve the famous Jensen's inequality are established. Particular instances in the case of normed spaces and for complex and real n-tuples are given. Refinements of Shannon's inequality and the positivity of Kullback-Leibler divergence are obtained.

AbstractIn this paper, first we present some interesting identities associated with Green’s functions and Fink’s identity, and further we present some interesting inequalities for r-convex functions. We also present refinements of some Hardy–Littlewood–Pólya type inequalities and give an application to the Shannon entropy. Furthermore, we use the Čebyšev functional and Grüss type inequalities and present the bounds for the remainder in the obtained identities. Finally, we use the obtained identities together with Hölder’s inequality for integrals and present Ostrowski type inequalities.

We generalize an integral Jensen–Mercer inequality to the class of n-convex functions using Fink’s identity and Green’s functions. We study the monotonicity of some linear functionals constructed from the obtained inequalities using the definition of n-convex functions at a point.

AbstractWe obtain mainly by using Jensen's inequality for convex functions an integral inequality, which contains as a special case Shun's generalization of Hardy's inequality.

AbstractSome inequalities in terms of the Gâteaux derivatives related to Jensen’s inequality for convex functions defined on linear spaces are given. Applications for norms, mean f-deviations and f-divergence measures are provided as well.

In the year 2003, McD Mercer established an interesting variation of Jensen’s inequality and later in 2009 Mercer’s result was generalized to higher dimensions by M. Niezgoda. Recently, Asif et al. has stated an integral version of Niezgoda’s result for convex functions. We further generalize Niezgoda’s integral result for functions with nondecreasing increments and give some refinements with applications. In the way, we generalize an important result, Jensen-Boas inequality, using functions with nondecreasing increments. These results would constitute a valuable addition to Jensen-type inequalities in the literature.
