We present some monotonicity results for Dirichlet $L$-functions associated to real primitive characters. We show in particular that these Dirichlet $L$-functions are far from being logarithmically completely monotonic. Also, we show that,…

This paper studies the problem of testing whether a function is monotone from a nonparametric Bayesian perspective. Two new families of tests are constructed. The first uses constrained smoothing splines, together with a hierarchical…

In this paper our aim is to show some mean value inequalities for the modified Bessel functions of the first and second kinds. Our proofs are based on some bounds for the logarithmic derivatives of these functions, which are in fact…

In this short note we prove a conjecture for the interval $(0,1)$, related to a logarithmically completely monotonic function, presented in \cite{BG}. Then, we extend by proving a more generalized theorem. At the end we pose an open problem…

This paper considers various integrals where the integrand includes the log gamma function (or its derivative, the digamma function) multiplied by a trigonometric or hyperbolic function. Some apparently new integrals and series are…

We offer new proofs, refinements as well as new results related to classical means of two variables, including the identric and logarithmic means.

A refinement of the Hardy inequality has been presented by use of superquadratic function.

We investigate conditions for logarithmic complete monotonicity of a quotient of two products of gamma functions, where the argument of each gamma function has different scaling factor. We give necessary and sufficient conditions in terms…

In this manuscript, we present the complete monotonicity of functions defined in terms of the poly-double gamma function \begin{align*} \psi_2^{(n)}(x) = (-1)^{n+1} n! \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(1+k)}{(x+k)^{n+1}}, \quad x > 0, \ n\geq 2.…

We provide approximations to the prime counting function by various discretized versions of the logarithmic integral function, expressed solely in terms of the harmonic numbers. We demonstrate with explicit error bounds that these…

In this article, we define a special function called the Bigamma function. It provides a generalization of Euler's gamma function. Several algebraic properties of this new function are studied. In particular, results linking this new…

We introduce a gamma function $\Ga(x,z)$ in two complex variables which extends the classical gamma function $\Ga(z)$ in the sense that $\lim_{x\to 1}\Ga(x,z)=\Ga(z)$. We will show that many properties which $\Ga(z)$ enjoys extend in a…

In this work we establish a connection between two classical notions, unrelated so far: Harmonic functions on the one hand and absolutely monotonic functions on the other hand. We use this to prove convexity type and propagation of…

In this paper, we continue studying the properties of $\gamma$-semi-continuous and $\gamma$-semi-open functions introduced in [5].

This paper considers some integrals where the integrand comprises the log gamma function or the digamma function multiplied by exponential or trigonometric functions.

In this article, we present a new two-dimensional generalization of the gamma function based on the product of the one-dimensional generalized beta function and the one-dimensional generalized gamma function. As will become clear later,…

We consider differences between $\log \Gamma(x)$ and truncations of certain classical asymptotic expansions in inverse powers of $x-\lambda$ whose coefficients are expressed in terms of Bernoulli polynomials $B_n(\lambda)$, and we obtain…

In this article, we prove that convex functions and log-convex functions obey certain general refinements that lead to several refinements and reverses of well known inequalities for matrices, including Young's inequality, Heinz inequality,…
