Title: Some inequalities for operator (p,h)-convex functions.

Abstract: Let p be a positive number and h a function on R+ satisfying h(xy)h(x)h(y) for any x,yR. A non-negative function f on K(R+) is said to be operator (p,h)-convex if 

f([αAp+(1α)Bp]1/p)h(α)f(A)+h(1α)f(B)

holds for all self-adjoint matrices A,B of order n with spectra in K, and for any α(0,1)

In this talk, we study properties of (p,h)-convex functions and prove the Jensen, Hansen-Pedersen type inequalities for them. We also give some equivalent conditions for a function to become an operator $(p,h)-convex. In applications, we obtain Choi-Davis-Jensen type inequality for operator (p,h)-convex functions and a relation between operator (p,h)-convex functions with operator monotone functions.
