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…
Using the ideas of Deninger, we prove that the Artin $L$-functions coincide with such of the noncommutative tori. This result can be viewed as the Langlands reciprocity for noncommutative tori.
In this work we prove that if an entire function $f(z)$ is of order strictly less than one and it has only negative zeros, then for each nonnegative integer $k,m$ the real function…
Euler's gamma function is logarithmically convex on positive semi-axis. Additivity of logarithmic convexity implies that the function sum of gammas with non-negative coefficients is also log-convex. In this paper we investigate the series…

Complete monotonicity, Laguerre and Tur\'an type inequalities are established for the so-called Kr\"atzel function $Z_{\rho}^{\nu},$ defined by $$Z_{\rho}^{\nu}(u)=\int_0^{\infty}t^{\nu-1}e^{-t^{\rho}-\frac{u}{t}}\dt,$$ where $u>0$ and…

The comonotonic maxitivity property of functionals frequently appears in the characterization of fuzzy integrals based on the maximum operation. In some special cases, comonotonic maxitivity implies monotonicity of functionals. The question…
