Complete Monotonicity of Logarithmic Mean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In the article, the logarithmic mean is proved to be completely monotonic and an open problem about the logarithmically complete monotonicity of the extended mean values is ...

General monotonicity

open access: yes
This article employs techniques from convex analysis to present characterizations of (maximal) $n-$monotonicity, similar to the well-established characterizations of (maximal) monotonicity found in the existing literature. These characterizations are further illustrated through examples.

Monotonicity Results for Arithmetic Means of Concave and Convex Functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
By majorization approaches, some known results on monotonicity of the arithmetic means of convex and concave functions are proved and generalized once ...

A Generalized Sum-Difference Inequality and Applications to Partial Difference Equations

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2008
We establish a general form of sum-difference inequality in two variables, which includes both two distinct nonlinear sums without an assumption of monotonicity and a nonconstant term outside the sums.

Stochastic monotonicity and duality for one-dimensional Markov processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The theory of monotonicity and duality is developed for general one-dimensional Feller processes, extending the approach from [11]. Moreover it is shown that local monotonicity conditions (conditions on the Lévy kernel) are sufficient to prove the well-

On the study of a class of variational inequalities via Leray-Schauder degree

open access: yesFixed Point Theory and Applications, 2004
We present existence results for general variational inequalities without monotonicity or coercivity assumptions. It relies on a Leray-Schauder degree approach and provides additional information about the location of solutions.

Monotones in General Resource Theories

open access: yesCompositionality, 2023
A central problem in the study of resource theories is to find functions that are nonincreasing under resource conversions — termed monotones — in order to quantify resourcefulness. Various constructions of monotones appear in many different concrete resource theories. How general are these constructions? What are the necessary conditions on a resource

Generalized Equilibrium Problem with Mixed Relaxed Monotonicity

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
We extend the concept of relaxed α-monotonicity to mixed relaxed α-β-monotonicity. The concept of mixed relaxed α-β-monotonicity is more general than many existing concepts of monotonicities.

Monotonicity and Inequalities for Ratio of the Generalized Logarithmic Means [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Let c > b > a > 0 be real numbers. Then the function f(r) = Lr(a,b)/Lr(a,c) is strictly decreasing on (−∞,∞), where Lr(a, b) denotes the generalized (extended) logarithmic mean of two positive numbers a and ...
