Exploring nine different proofs of a famous logarithmic inequality
Annals of Mathematics and Computer Science(2024)
摘要
This article explores and analyzes nine different proofs of a fundamental logarithmic inequality, say "log(1+x)/x ≥ 1/ (1+x/2) for x>-1". Some proofs are already published; others are new or consider new approaches or new angles of research. They are based on various techniques, such as differentiation, series expansion, and the application of well-known inequalities such as the primitive, Cauchy-Schwarz, logarithmic mean, hyperbolic tangent function, Jensen, and Hermite-Hadamard inequalities. A graphical work illustrates some results. Therefore, our study clarifies the different mathematical foundations of this seemingly straightforward but important inequality and goes beyond it with some new material.
