Given two functions \(f,g:I\rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) and a probability measure \(\mu \) on the Borel subsets of [0, 1], the two-variable mean \(M_{f,g;\mu }:I^2\rightarrow I\) is defined by
$$\begin{aligned} M_{f,g;\mu }(x,y) :=\bigg (\frac{f}{g}\bigg )^{-1}\left( \frac{\int _0^1 f\big (tx+(1-t)y\big )d\mu (t)}{\int _0^1 g\big (tx+(1-t)y\big )d\mu (t)}\right) \quad (x,y\in I). \end{aligned}$$This class of means includes quasiarithmetic as well as Cauchy and Bajraktarević means. The aim of this paper is, for a fixed probability measure \(\mu \), to study their equality problem, i.e., to characterize those pairs of functions (f, g) and (F, G) for which
$$\begin{aligned} M_{f,g;\mu }(x,y)=M_{F,G;\mu }(x,y) \quad (x,y\in I) \end{aligned}$$holds. Under at most sixth-order differentiability assumptions for the unknown functions f, g and F, G, we obtain several necessary conditions in terms of ordinary differential equations for the solutions of the above equation. For two particular measures, a complete description is obtained. These latter results offer eight equivalent conditions for the equality of Bajraktarević means and of Cauchy means.

关于二变量一般函数均值的相等性
给定两个函数\(f,g:I \ rightarrow \ mathbb {R} \)和概率度量\(\ mu \)的[0,1]的Borel子集,两个变量的均值\(M_ {f ,g; \ mu}:I ^ 2 \ rightarrow I \)由
$$ \ begin {aligned} M_ {f,g; \ mu}(x,y):= \ bigg(\ frac {f} {g} \ bigg)^ {-1} \ left(\ frac {\ int _0 ^ 1 f \ big(tx +(1-t)y \ big)d \ mu(t)} {\ int _0 ^ 1 g \ big(tx +(1-t)y \ big)d \ mu(t) } \ right)\ quad(x,y \ in I)。\ end {aligned} $$此类手段包括拟算术以及柯西和Bajraktarević手段。本文的目的是,对于一个固定的概率测度\(\ mu \),研究它们的相等性问题,即表征那些对(f, g)和(F, G)的函数对。
$$ \ begin {aligned} M_ {f,g; \ mu}(x,y)= M_ {F,G; \ mu} {x,y)\ quad(x,y \ in I)\ end {aligned } $$持有。在未知函数f, g和F, G的最多六阶可微性假设下,我们用常微分方程式为上述方程的解提供了几个必要条件。对于两个特定的措施,获得了完整的描述。后面的结果为Bajraktarević均值和Cauchy均值的相等提供了八个等效条件。
