New generalizations of Popoviciu type inequalities via new green functions and Fink’s identity

Abstract

We formulate new identities involving new Green functions. Inequality of Popoviciu, which was improved by Vasić and Stanković (1976), is generalized by using newly introduced Green functions. We utilize Fink’s identity along with new Green’s function to generalize the known Popoviciu’s inequality from convex functions to higher order convex functions. Then we construct linear functionals from the generalized identities and formulate the monotonicity of these functionals utilizing the recent theory of inequalities for n-convex functions at a point. New upper bounds of Grüss and Ostrowski type are computed.
