Characterizations of minimal elements of upper support with applications in minimizing DC functions

open access: yesOpen Mathematics
In this study, we discuss on the problem of minimizing the differences of two non-positive valued increasing, co-radiant and quasi-concave (ICRQC) functions defined on XX (where XX is a real locally convex topological vector space).

A completely monotonic function involving the tri- and tetra-gamma functions

open access: yes, 2010
The psi function $\psi(x)$ is defined by $\psi(x)=\frac{\Gamma'(x)}{\Gamma(x)}$ and $\psi^{(i)}(x)$ for $i\in\mathbb{N}$ denote the polygamma functions, where $\Gamma(x)$ is the gamma function.

Inequalities, asymptotic expansions and completely monotonic functions related to the gamma function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper, we present some completely monotonic functions and asymptotic expansions related to the gamma function. Based on the obtained expansions, we provide new bounds for Γ(x + 1)/Γ(x + 1/2) and Γ(x + 1/2)

EXPONENTIAL CONVEXITY OF THE FAVARD'S INEQUALITY AND RELATED RESULTS

open access: yes, 2017
A b s t r a c t: In this paper we prove positive semi-definiteness of matrices generated by differences deduced from unweighted and weighted Favard's inequality. This implies a surprising property of exponential convexity of this differences which allows

Decreasing and complete monotonicity of functions defined by derivatives of completely monotonic function involving trigamma function

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica
In this study, using convolution theorem of the Laplace transforms, a monotonicity rule for the ratio of two Laplace transforms, Bernstein’s theorem for completely monotonic functions, and other analytic techniques, the authors verify decreasing property

A refinement of a double inequality for the gamma function

open access: yes, 2011
In the paper, we present a monotonicity result of a function involving the gamma function and the logarithmic function, refine a double inequality for the gamma function, and improve some known results for bounding the gamma function.Comment: 8 ...

An involution inequality for the Kullback-Leibler divergence

open access: yes, 2017
. Let Rt := t P + (1− t)Pι , where t ∈ (0,1) , P is a probability measure, and Pι is the push-forward image of P under a measurable involution ι . An inequality involving the Kullback–Leibler divergence of Rt from P is given. It is shown that the role of

Some inequalities associated to the ratio of Pochhammer k-symbol

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we study some ratios of the Pochhammer k -symbol. We prove some sharp inequalities for the ratio of Pochhammer k -symbol by Multiple-correction method. Mathematics subject classification (2010): 33B15, 26D07, 26A48.
