Abstract: |
An identity for the Chebychev functional is presented in which a
Riemann-Stieltjes integral is involved. This allows bounds for the
functional to be obtained for functions that are of bounded variation,
Lipschitzian and monotone. Some applications are presented to produce bounds
for moments of functions about a general point g and for moment
generating functions.;
