Abstract Hoerl and McCormack demonstrate that although animals possess a sophisticated temporal updating system, there is no evidence that they also possess a temporal reasoning system. This important case study is directly related to the broader claim that although animals are manifestly capable of first-order (perceptually-based) relational reasoning, they lack the capacity for higher-order, role-based relational reasoning. We argue this distinction applies to all domains of cognition.

In this paper, firstly we prove an integral identity that one can derive several new equalities for special selections of n from this identity: Secondly, we established more general integral inequalities for functions whose second derivatives of absolute values are GA-convex functions based on this equality.

Quasi Convexity

In this paper, we give a new concept which is a generalization of the concepts quasi-convexity and harmonically quasi-convexity and establish a new identity. A consequence of the identity is that we obtain some new general inequalities containing all of the Hermite-Hadamard and Simpson-like type for functions whose derivatives in absolute value at certain power are p-quasi-convex. Some applications to special means of real numbers are also given.

Full Solution

The paper presents sufficient conditions for certain functions to be convex. Functions of this type often appear in Markov decision processes, where their maximum is the solution of the problem. Since a convex function takes its maximum at an extreme point, the conditions may greatly simplify a problem. In some cases a full solution may be obtained after the reduction is made. Some illustrative examples are discussed.
