We derive local and global monotonic quantities associated to $p$-harmonic functions on manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature. As applications, we obtain inequalities relating the mass of asymptotically flat $3$-manifolds, the…

The problem is considered as to whether a monotone function defined on a subset P of a Euclidean space can be strictly monotonically extended to the whole space. It is proved that this is the case if and only if the function is {\em…

We prove that Riemann's xi function is strictly increasing (respectively, strictly decreasing) in modulus along every horizontal half-line in any zero-free, open right (respectively, left) half-plane. A corollary is a reformulation of the…

In this paper, a new proof of the Positive Mass Theorem is established through a newly discovered monotonicity formula, holding along the level sets of the Green's function of an asymptotically flat $3$-manifold. In the same context and for…

It was recently proved by Fischer, Keller, and Pogorzelski in [Integr. Equ. Oper. Theory, 95(24), 2023] that the classical discrete $p$-Hardy inequality admits an improvement, and the optimal $p$-Hardy weight $\omega_{p}$ was determined…

We consider positive solutions to $\displaystyle -\Delta_p u=\frac{1}{u^\gamma}+f(u)$ under zero Dirichlet condition in the half space. Exploiting a prio-ri estimates and the moving plane technique, we prove that any solution is monotone…

Let $d\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $\gamma_i\in [0,\infty)$, $x_i\in (0,1)$ be such that $\sum_{i=1}^{d+1} \gamma_i = M\in (0,\infty)$ and $\sum_{i=1}^{d+1} x_i = 1$. We prove that \begin{equation*} a \mapsto \frac{\Gamma(aM +…

The main purpose of this note is to construct two functionals of the positive solutions to the conjugate heat equation associated to the metrics evolving by the conformal Ricci flow on closed manifolds. We show that they are nondecreasing…

New asymptotic relations between the $L_p$-errors of best approximation of univariate functions by algebraic polynomials and entire functions of exponential type are obtained for $p\in (0,\iy]$. General asymptotic relations are applied to…

The most important open problem in Monotone Operator Theory concerns the maximal monotonicity of the sum of two maximally monotone operators provided that Rockafellar's constraint qualification holds. In this paper, we prove the maximal…

We consider two operations on the Mittag-Leffler function which cancel the exponential term in the expansion at infinity, and generate a completely monotonic function. The first one is the action of a certain differential-difference…

We characterize of the $q$-Bernstein functions in terms of $q$-Laplace transform. Moreover, we present several results of $q$-completely monotonic, $q$-log completely monotonic and $q$-Bernstein functions.

Using the Bernstein theorem we give a simple proof of the complete monotonicity of the three parameter generalized Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\alpha, \beta}^{\gamma}(-x)$ for $x \geq 0$ and suitably adjusted parameters $\alpha$, $\beta$…

A real arithmetic function f is multiplicatively monotonous if f (mn) -- f (m) has constant sign for m, n positive integers. Properties and examples of such functions are discussed, with applications to positive hermitian…

We show that any periodic with respect to normal subgroups (of the group representation of the Cayley tree) of finite index $p$-harmonic function is a constant. For some normal subgroups of infinite index we describe a class of…

A real valued function $f$ defined on a real open interval $I$ is called $\Phi$-monotone if, for all $x,y\in I$ with $x\leq y$ it satisfies $$ f(x)\leq f(y)+\Phi(y-x), $$ where $\Phi:[0,\ell(I)[\,\to\mathbb{R}_+$ is a given nonnegative…

In previous works, an approach to the study of cyclic functions in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces has been presented, based on the study of so called \emph{optimal polynomial approximants}. In the present article, we extend such approach…

We prove that a continuous function $f:(0,\infty) \to (0,\infty)$ is operator monotone increasing if and only if $f(A \: !_t \: B) \leqs f(A) \: !_t \: f(B)$ for any positive operators $A,B$ and scalar $t \in [0,1]$. Here, $!_t$ denotes the…

Let $\varphi$ be a normal state on the algebra $B(H)$ of all bounded operators on a Hilbert space $H$, $f$ a strictly positive, continuous function on $(0, \infty)$, and let $g$ be a function on $(0, \infty)$ defined by $g(t) =…
