On Two Problems Posed by Kenneth Stolarsky
نویسندگان
چکیده
Solutions of two slightly more general problems than those posed by Kenneth B. Stolarsky in [10] are presented. The latter deal with a shape preserving approximation, in the uniform norm, of two functions (1/x) log coshx and (1/x) log(sinhx/x), x ≥ 0, by ratios of exponomials. The main mathematical tools employed include Gini means and the Stolarski means.

Discriminants of Chebyshev-like Polynomials and Their Generating Functions
In his paper of 2000, Kenneth B. Stolarsky made various observations and conjectures about discriminants and generating functions of certain types of Chebyshev-like polynomials. We prove several of these conjectures. One of our proofs involves Wilf-Zeilberger pairs and a contiguous relation for hypergeometric series.
متن کاملA RATIO ASSOCIATED WITH 0(x) = n
Let $(x) be Euler's totient function. The literature on solving the equation cj)0) = n (see [1, pp. 221-223], [2-5], [6, pp. 50-55, problems B36-B42], [7-11], [12, pp. 228-256], and the references therein) can be viewed as a collection of open problems. For n = 2, we essentially have the problem of factoring the Fermat numbers. Another notorious example is Carmichaels conjecture [3, 7] that if ...
متن کاملSlow Beatty Sequences, Devious Convergence, and Partitional Divergence
Sequences ( nr ) for 0 < r < 1 are introduced as slow Beatty sequences. They and ordinary Beatty sequences (for which r > 1) provide examples of sequences that converge deviously (which at first might seem to diverge), as well as partitionally divergent sequences (which consist of convergent subsequences).
متن کاملComputer aided solution of the invariance equation for two-variable Stolarsky means
We solve the so-called invariance equation in the class of two-variable Sto-be valid. We recall that, for pq(p − q) = 0 and x = y, the Stolarsky mean S p,q is defined by S p,q (x, y) := q(x p − y p) p(x q − y q) 1 p−q. In the proof first we approximate the Stolarsky mean and we use the computer algebra system Maple V Release 9 to compute the Taylor expansion of the approximation up to 12th orde...

Keywords: Fuzzy measure Sugeno integral Choquet integral Stolarsky's inequality a b s t r a c t Recently Flores-Franulič, Román-Flores and Chalco-Cano proved the Stolarsky type inequality for Sugeno integral with respect to the Lebesgue measure k. The present paper is devoted to generalize this result by relaxing some of its requirements. Moreover, Stolar-sky inequality for Choquet integral is ...
