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.

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.

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.

By using Fink’s Identity, Green functions, and Montgomery identities we prove some identities related to Steffensen’s inequality. Under the assumptions of n-convexity and n-concavity, we give new generalizations of Steffensen’s inequality and its reverse. Generalizations of some inequalities (and their reverse), which are related to Hardy-type inequality. New bounds of Gr u ¨ ss and Ostrowski-type inequalities have been proved. Moreover, we formulate generalized Steffensen’s-type linear functionals and prove their monotonicity for the generalized class of ( n + 1 ) -convex functions at a point. At the end, we present some applications of our study to the theory of exponentially convex functions. .

We continue investigation of soft breaking of BRST symmetry in the Batalin–Vilkovisky (BV) formalism beyond regularizations like dimensional ones used in our previous paper [JHEP 1110, 043 (2011)]. We generalize a definition of soft breaking of BRST symmetry valid for general gauge theories and arbitrary gauge fixing. The gauge dependence of generating functionals of Green's functions is investigated. It is proved that such introduction of a soft breaking of BRST symmetry into gauge theories leads to inconsistency of the conventional BV formalism.

In this paper, generalized Green’s functions for second-order discrete boundaryvalueproblems with nonlocal boundary conditions are investigated, where the necessaryand sufficient existence condition of discrete Green’s function is not satisfied and nonlocalboundary conditions are described by linear functionals.
