We answer the question: for α,β,γ ∈ 0,1 with α  β  γ  1, what are the greatest value p and the least value q, such that the double inequality L a,b Aαa,bGβa,bHγa,b p Lqa,b holds for all a,b 0 with a/b? Here Lpa,b, Aa,b, Ga,b, and Ha,b denote the generalized logarithmic, arithmetic, geometric, and harmonic means of two positive numbers a andb ,respectively. 1.Introduction Fora/bpis∈de?nedRthegeneralizedby logarithmicmeanLpa,boftwopositivenumbersaandbwith ?  1/p ? ap1?bp1 ? ? ? , p/0, p/ ?1, ? ? ? p1a?b ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? 1/b?a 1 bb Lpa,b  p0, 1.1 , ? ?e aa ? ? ? ? ? ? ? b?a ? ? p ?1. ? ?
