Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new class of functions known as coordinate strongly convex functions. We discuss the relation between strongly convex functions and coordinate strongly convex functions. Also, we present some natural properties of coordinate strongly convex functions. We present Slater’s, Jensen’s and converse of the Jensen inequalities in discrete as well as integral versions for coordinate strongly convex functions. Furthermore, we present Hermite–Hadamard’s type inequalities for coordinate strongly convex functions.
