Losonczi. As an application, a chain of inequalities of ratio of bivariate means is established. Copyright q 2009 Zhen-Hang Yang.

Introduction Let Φa, b and Ψc, d be bivariate means. For what means Φ and Ψ does the following inequality Φ a, b Ψ a, b ≤ 1.1 Φ c, d Ψ c, d hold true? where b d a, b, c, d 0, ≥ ≥ 1. 1.2
