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…

For the two-parameter Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\alpha,\beta}$ with $\alpha > 0$ and $\beta \ge 0,$ we consider the question whether $|E_{\alpha,\beta}(z)|$ and $E_{\alpha,\beta}(\Re z)$ are comparable on the whole complex plane. We show…

We prove two inequalities for the Mittag-Leffler function, namely that the function $\log E_\alpha(x^\alpha)$ is sub-additive for $0<\alpha<1,$ and super-additive for $\alpha>1.$ These assertions follow from two new binomial inequalities,…
This article deals with the ratio of normalized Mittag-Leffler function $\mathbb{E}_{\alpha,\beta}(z)$ and its sequence of partial sums $(\mathbb{E}_{\alpha,\beta})_m(z)$. Several examples which illustrate the validity of our results are…
It is well-known that measures whose density is the form $e^{-V}$ where $V$ is a uniformly convex potential on $\RR^n$ attain strong concentration properties. In search of a notion of log-concavity on the discrete hypercube, we consider…
This paper is devoted to the study of the $M$-Wright function ($M_{\alpha}(t)$) which is the inverse Laplace transform of the single-parameter Mittag-Leffler (ML) function ($E_{\alpha}(-s)$). Because $E_{\alpha}(-s)$ can be viewed as the…
In this survey we discuss derivatives of the Wright functions (of the first and the second kind) with respect to parameters. Differentiation of these functions leads to infinite power series with coefficient being quotients of the digamma…
