A Characterization of Convex Functions [PDF]
Let $D$ be a convex subset of a real vector space. It is shown that a radially lower semicontinuous function $f: D\to \mathbf{R}\cup \{+\infty\}$ is convex if and only if for all $x,y \in D$ there exists $\alpha=\alpha(x,y) \in (0,1)$ such that $f(\alpha

Geometric convexity of the generalized sine and the generalized hyperbolic sine [PDF]
In the paper, the authors prove that the generalized sine function $\sin_{p,q}(x)$ and the generalized hyperbolic sine function $\sinh_{p,q}(x)$ are geometrically concave and geometrically convex, respectively.

Uniqueness of nontrivially complete monotonicity for a class of functions involving polygamma functions [PDF]
For $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$, let $f_{m,n}(x)=\bigr[\psi^{(m)}(x)\bigl]^2+\psi^{(n)}(x)$ on $(0,\infty)$. In the present paper, we prove using two methods that, among all $f_{m,n}(x)$ for $m,n\in\mathbb{N}$, only $f_{1,2}(x)$ is nontrivially completely ...

A mean value theorem for systems of integrals [PDF]
More than a century ago, G. Kowalewski stated that for each n continuous functions on a compact interval [a,b], there exists an n-point quadrature rule (with respect to Lebesgue measure on [a,b]), which is exact for given functions.

In this article, we introduce the notions of generalized fractional integrals for the interval-valued functions (IVFs) of two variables. We establish Hermite-Hadamard (H-H) type inequalities and some related inequalities for co-ordinated convex IVFs by ...

Monotone and convex H*‐algebra valued functions
Classical theorems about monotone and convex functions are generalized to the case of H*‐algebra valued functions. Also there are new examples of a vector measure.

Increasing property and logarithmic convexity of functions involving Dirichlet lambda function
In this article, with the help of an integral representation of the Dirichlet lambda function, by means of a monotonicity rule for the ratio of two integrals with a parameter, and by virtue of complete monotonicity and another property of an elementary ...

A note on an inequality for the gamma function
Some inequalities for the Wallis functions are proved. The results of this paper are consequences of some characterization of convex functions. A generalization of a result of Boyd (1) and an extentlon of an inequality of Gantschi (3) are obtained.
