Inequalities and Monotonicity of the Ratio of the Geometric Means of a Positive Arithmetic Sequence with Unit Difference
Qi, Feng
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, v34 n4 p601-607 Jul 2003
For any nonnegative integer "k" and natural numbers "n" and "m," the equations presented in this paper demonstrate the inequalities obtained on the ratio for the geometric means of a positive arithmetic sequence with unit difference, where alpha epsilon [vertical bar]0,1[vertical bar] is a constant. Using the ideas and methods of Chen (2002), Kuang (1999), and Qi and Guo (2000), the author further generalizes these inequalities and obtains additional inequalities of the ratio for the geometric mean of a positive arithmetic sequence with unit difference and monotonicity results.
