Nov 19, 2009 at 19:25 comment added Theo Johnson-Freyd The harmonic mean is the arithmetic mean conjugated by x \mapsto 1/x.
Nov 19, 2009 at 15:54 comment added Michael Lugo It was so trivial that I didn't want to actually sit down and do it, and so I was afraid there was some reason it wouldn't work (say, that x -> 1/x isn't monotone).
Nov 19, 2009 at 15:46 comment added Mark Meckes No perhaps: it's a trivial exercise to show this works.
