Synopsis

The inequality of Ganelius states that, for suitable functions f and g on an interval [a, b], [inf f + var f]sup ∫ jdg, where the supremum is taken over all sub-intervals J of [a, b]. A more general version of this inequality is derived as well as certain related generalized mean-value theorems.
