Some special cases on Stolarsky’s means

In this paper we observe that one-parameter Stolarsky’s means (SM) are deduced from both the Mean Value Theorem for derivatives (MVTD) and the Mean Value Theorem for definite integrals (MVTI), and we study their elementary properties as the parameter varies.

Description
Summary:In this paper we observe that one-parameter Stolarsky’s means (SM) are deduced from both the Mean Value Theorem for derivatives (MVTD) and the Mean Value Theorem for definite integrals (MVTI), and we study their elementary properties as the parameter varies. In the subfamily of SM having a natural number as parameter, we geometrically interpret one of them in particular as a real elliptic cone. We link SM having the integer power of a prime number as a parameter to classical means (i.e., harmonic mean, geometric mean, arithmetic mean, power mean). Finally, from an extension of Flett's Theorem (FT), we derive the expression of a new mean that is a upper bound of the arithmetic mean.
