We characterize real and complex functions which, when applied entrywise to square matrices, yield a positive definite matrix if and only if the original matrix is positive definite. We refer to these transformations as sign preservers.…
In a recent paper a class of infinite Jacobi matrices with discrete character of spectra has been introduced. With each Jacobi matrix from this class an analytic function is associated, called the characteristic function, whose zero set…
The object of the present paper is to introduce and investigate two new general subclasses ${{S}^{*}}C(\alpha ,\beta ;\gamma )$ and $T{{S}^{*}}C(\alpha ,\beta ;\gamma )~~(\alpha, \beta \in [0,1),~\gamma \in [0,1])$ of the analytic…
Ultrafunctions are a particular class of functions defined on a Non Archimedean field E. They have been introduced and studied in some previous works. In this paper we develop the notion of fine ultrafunctions which improves the older…

A function of positive type can be defined as a positive functional on a convolution algebra of a locally compact group. In the case where the group is abelian, by Bochner's theorem a function of positive type is, up to normalization, the…

We define generalizations of the multiple elliptic gamma functions and the multiple sine functions, labelled by rational cones in $\mathbb{R}^r$. For $r=2,3$ we prove that the generalized multiple elliptic gamma functions enjoy a modular…
The aim of this note is to provide a new identity connected with the Gauss hypergeometric function. This is achieved using results of certain combinatorial identities and a hypergeometric function approach.
Hypergeometric functions of complex matrices were introduced by James in multivariate statistics. These special functions play many roles in random matrix theory. The main goal of this paper is to suggest a new use for them as holomorphic…
The goal of the first part of this note is to get an explicit formula for rotation number and Mather $\beta$-function for ellipse. This is done here with the help of non-standard generating function of billiard problem. In this way the…

The hypergeometric zeta function is defined in terms of the zeros of the Kummer function M(a, a + b; z). It is established that this function is an entire function of order 1. The classical factorization theorem of Hadamard gives an…
The classical beta function B(x; y) is one of the most fundamental special functions, due to its important role in various fields in the mathematical, physical, engineering and statistical sciences. Useful extensions of the classical Beta…
In this paper we introduce new generalizations of the zeta function, the Tricomi functions; their main properties are studied. This opens the way to a deeper, better application of these functions both in the theory of special functions,…

Positive definite matrices abound in a dazzling variety of applications. This ubiquity can be in part attributed to their rich geometric structure: positive definite matrices form a self-dual convex cone whose strict interior is a…
This work has a purpose to collect selected facts about the completely monotone (CM) functions that can be found in books and papers devoted to different areas of mathematics. We opted for lesser known ones, and for those which may help…
Integral representations of hypergeometric functions proved to be a very useful tool for studying their properties. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we extend the known representations to arbitrary values of the parameters and…
