Generalization and sharpness of the power means inequality and their applications. (English)
[J] J. Math. Anal. Appl. 312, No. 2, 637-652 (2005). ISSN 0022-247X

The main results of the paper sharpen the classical well-known inequalities between power means. As a consequence, the inequality $$ \left(\sum_{i=1}^n x_i\right)^n \le (n-1)^{n-1} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i^n + n\big(n^{n-1}-(n-1)^{n-1}\big)\prod_{i=1}^n x_i $$ is proved for all $x_1,\dots,x_n>0$, $n\ge2$, which was conjectured by {\it W. Janous, M. K. Kuczma} and {\it M. S. Klamkin} [Problem 1598, Crux Math. 16, 299--300 (1990), per bibl.]. The methods of the paper are analytic and use majorization and Schur-convexity. Some geometric applications are also obtained.
