Abstract |
|
The log-concavity of the Hölder mean of two numbers, as a function of its index, is presented first. The notion of -cevian of a triangle is introduced next, for any real number . We use this property of the Hölder mean to find the smallest index such that the length of an -cevian of a triangle is less than or equal to the -Hölder mean of the lengths of the two sides of the triangle that are adjacent to that cevian. |
