Means and convergent sequences
摘要
We generalize a theorem of Housen Li and Markus Haltmeier (which was stated for the arithmetic mean) to the following result: Let M be a strict, continuous and monotonous k-mean on an interval. If each element of a sequence in this interval is bounded from above by the mean of the preceding k elements then the sequence is convergent. Furthermore, we give counterexamples if the mean fails to fulfil the imposed conditions.
