SCHUR POWER CONVEXITY OF GINI MEANS
Yang, Zhen-Hang;

Abstract
In this paper, the Schur convexity is generalized to Schur $\small{f}$-convexity, which contains the Schur geometrical convexity, harmonic convexity and so on. When $\small{f}$ : $\small{{\mathbb{R}}_+{\rightarrow}{\mathbb{R}}}$ is defined as \$f(x)
