Polynomial selections and separation by polynomials [PDF]
Necessary and sufficient conditions under which two real functions defined on the real interval can be separated by a polynomial are given. An immediate consequence of the main result is the existence of the polynomial separation of convex functions of higher order. Another application is some Hyers-Ulam-stability-type result.

Gautchi's ratio and the Volume of the unit ball in R^n [PDF]
Let Omega(n) be the volume of the unit ball in R^n. We formulate as an infinite product the gamma function ratio gamma(x+1/2)/gamma(x),x>0, which allows us to reproduce and /or produce a variety of formulas and inequalities, some of them seemingly new, concerning Omega(n-1)/Omega(n),and (Omega(n))^2/Omega(n-1)Omega(n+1)

Dominance in the family of Sugeno-Weber t-norms [PDF]
The dominance relationship between two members of the family of Sugeno Weber t-norms is proven by using a quantifer elimination algorithm. Further it is shown that dominance is a transitive, and therefore also an order relation, on this family of t-norms.

The Proof of Alzer's Conjecture on Generalized Logarithmic Mean [PDF]
In 1987, Alzer posed a conjecture on generalized logarithmic mean, which was introduced by Stolarsky in 1975. To prove Alzer's conjecture, Lou posed a conjecture on generalized inverse harmonic mean in 1995. By proving Lou's conjecture, the paper yields Alzer's conjecture finally.

A short extension of two of Spira's results [PDF]
Two inequalities concerning the symmetry of the zeta-function and the Ramanujan $\tau$-function are improved through the use of some elementary considerations.

Some refinements of Hermite-Hadamard inequality and an open problem [PDF]
We presented here a refinement of Hermite-Hadamard inequality as a linear combination of its end-points. The problem of best possible constants is closely connected with well known Simpson's rule in numerical integration. It is solved here for a wide class of convex functions, but not in general. Some supplementary results are also given.

Certain inequalities involving the k-Struve function [PDF]
We aim to introduce a $\mathtt{k}$-Struve function and investigate its various properties, including mainly certain inequalities associated this function. One of the inequalities given here is pointed out to be related to the so-called classical Tur\'an type inequality. We also present a differential equation, several recurrence relations, and integral

Monotonicity patterns and functional inequalities for classical and generalized Wright functions [PDF]
In this paper our aim is to present the completely monotonicity and convexity properties for the Wright function. As consequences of these results, we present some functional inequalities. Moreover, we derive the monotonicity and log-convexity results for the generalized Wright functions.

Approximation and bounds for the Wallis ratio [PDF]
In this paper, we present an improved continued fraction approximation of the Wallis ratio. This approximation is fast in comparison with the recently discovered asymptotic series. We also establish the double-side inequality related to this approximation.

Gasper's determinant theorem, revisited [PDF]
Let $n \ge 2$ be a natural number, $M$ a real $n \times n$ matrix, $s$ the sum of the entries of $M$ and $q$ the sum of their squares. With $\alpha := s/n$ and $\beta := q/n$, Gasper's determinant bound says that $ |\det M| \le \beta^{n/2}$, and in case of $\alpha^2 \ge \beta$: $$|\det M| \le |\alpha| \left(\frac{n\beta-\alpha^2}{n-1}\right)^{\frac{n-1}
