A metric space (X,d) is monotone if there is a linear order < on X and a constant c>0 such that d(x,y) < c d(x,z) for all x<y<z in X. Properties of continuous functions with monotone graph (considered as a planar set) are investigated. It…

In this paper, we investigate the complete monotonicity of R\'enyi entropy along the heat flow. We confirm this property for the order of derivative up to $4$, when the order of R\'enyi entropy is in certain regimes. We also investigate…

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…

We show that a large collection of special functions, in particular Nielsen's beta function, are generalized Stieltjes functions of order 2, and therefore logarithmically completely monotonic. This includes the Laplace transform of…

We prove that the function $g(x)= 1 / \bigl( 1 - \cos(x) \bigr)$ is completely monotonic on $(0,\pi]$ and absolutely monotonic on $[\pi, 2\pi)$, and we determine the best possible bounds $\lambda_n$ and $\mu_n$ such that the inequalities $$…
