The two-functional conjecture says that if a function f analytic and univalent in the unit disk maximizes Re{L} and Re{M} for two continuous linear functionals L and M, L is not equal to cM for any c>0, then f is a rotation of the Koebe…
We present explicit expressions for multi-fold logarithmic integrals that are equivalent to sums over polygamma functions at integer argument. Such relations find application in perturbative quantum field theory, quantum chemistry, analytic…
In this paper, the necessary and sufficient conditions in order that a smooth mapping F be a dependence of a complete solution of some second-order ordinary differential equation on Neumann conditions are deduced. These necessary and…
We prove a matrix trace inequality for completely monotone functions and for Bernstein functions. As special cases we obtain non-trivial trace inequalities for the power function x->x^q, which for certain values of q complement McCarthy's…
For an analytic and univalent function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}:=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$, the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ are defined by $\log \frac{f(z)}{z}= 2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…
This note completely resolves the asymptotic development of order $2$ by $\Gamma$-convergence of the mass-constrained Cahn--Hilliard functional, by showing that one of the critical assumptions of the authors' previous work (Leoni, Murray,…
For various function spaces of the form gU or U+gV, U and V e.g. almost periodic functions AP, (bounded) uniformly continuous functions BUC, UC, g(t) = exp(it^2), their properties are discussed, especially a Loomis type condition (Delta)…
An inequality, which combines the concept of completely monotone functions with the theory of divided differences, is proposed. It is a straightforward generalization of a result, recently introduced by two of the present authors.
In the paper, after reviewing the history, background, origin, and applications of the functions $\frac{b^{t}-a^{t}}{t}$ and $\frac{e^{-\alpha t}-e^{-\beta t}}{1-e^{-t}}$, we establish sufficient and necessary conditions such that the…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for Lipschitzness of the Lempert and Green functions are found in terms of their boundary behaviors.
We prove the complete monotonicity on $(0,\infty)^n$ for suitable inverse powers of the spanning-tree polynomials of graphs and, more generally, of the basis generating polynomials of certain classes of matroids. This generalizes a result…
A family of recently investigated Bernstein functions is revisited and those functions for which the derivatives are logarithmically completely monotonic are identified. This leads to the definition of a class of Bernstein functions, which…
The necessary and sufficient conditions for a class of functions $f:\mathbb{Z}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_q$, where $q \geq 2$ is an even positive integer, have been recently identified for $q=4$ and $q=8$. In this article we give an…
In this note we find optimal one-sided majorants of exponential type for the signum function subject to certain monotonicity conditions. As an application, we use these special functions to obtain a simple Fourier analysis proof of the…
In our previous work we found sufficient conditions to be imposed on the parameters of the generalized hypergeometric function in order that it be completely monotonic or of Stieltjes class. In this paper we collect a number of consequences…
In this paper, we investigate the monotone property of the continued fractions $G(m,\lambda)$ as a function of $m$ and $\lambda$. In particular, we obtain new inequality for the relative continued fractions.
In this short note we prove that, if (C[a,b],{A_n}) is an approximation scheme and (A_n) satisfies de La Vall\'ee-Poussin Theorem, there are instances of continuous functions on [a,b], real analytic on (a,b], which are poorly approximable…
In this paper we prove some monotonicity, log--convexity and log--concavity properties for the Volterra and incomplete Volterra functions. Moreover, as consequences of these results, we present some functional inequalities (like Tur\'an…
The logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ of an analytic and univalent function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$ are defined by $\log \frac{f(z)}{z}= 2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…
Let $x_1,...,x_n$ be a list of real numbers, let $s :=\sum_{i=1}^{n}x_i$ and let $h:\mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a function. We gave a necessary and sufficient condition for $s>h(n)$ (respectively, $s<h(n)$). Let $G=(V,E)$ be a…
