Half quasi-Cauchy sequences

Abstract

A real function $f$ is ward continuous if $f$ preserves quasi-Cauchyness, i.e. $(f(x_{n}))$ is a quasi-Cauchy sequence whenever $(x_{n})$ is quasi-Cauchy; and a subset $E$ of $\textbf{R}$ is quasi-Cauchy compact if any sequence $\textbf{x}=(x_{n})$ of points in $E$ has a quasi-Cauchy subsequence where $\textbf{R}$ is the set of real numbers. These known results suggest to us introducing a concept of upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy continuity in the sense that a function $f$ is upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy continuous if it preserves upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy sequences, and a concept of upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy compactness in the sense that a subset $E$ of $\textbf{R}$ is upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy compact if any sequence of points in $E$ has an upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy subsequence. We investigate upward(respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy continuity and upward (respectively, downward) half quasi-Cauchy compactness, and prove related theorems.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
