On Copson’s inequalities for \(0< p<1\). (English) Zbl 1503.26049

Summary: Let \((\lambda_n)_{n \geq1}\) be a positive sequence and let \(\varLambda_n=\sum^n_{i=1}\lambda_i\). We study the following Copson inequality for \(0< p<1, L>p\): \[\sum^{\infty}_{n=1} \left(\frac{1}{\varLambda_n} \sum^{\infty }_{k=n}\lambda_k x_k \right)^p \geq \left( \frac{p}{L-p} \right)^p \sum^{\infty}_{n=1}x^p_n.\] We find conditions on \(\lambda_n\) such that the above inequality is valid with the constant being the best possible.
