In this paper, we present some monotonicity rules for the ratio of two power series $x\mapsto \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_k x^k / \sum_{k=0}^\infty b_k x^k$ under the assumption that the monotonicity of the sequence ${a_k/b_k}$ changes twice.…
Let $f$ and $g$ be both continuous functions on $\left( 0,\infty \right) $ with $g\left( t\right) >0$ for $t\in \left( 0,\infty \right) $ and let $ F\left( x\right) =\mathcal{L}\left( f\right) $, $G\left( x\right) =\mathcal{L }\left(…
An elementary, but very useful lemma due to Biernacki and Krzy\.{z} (1955) asserts that the ratio of two power series inherits monotonicity from that of the sequence of ratios of their respective coefficients. Over the last two decades it…
In this note we prove a condition of monotonicity for the integral functional $ F(g) = \int_a^b h(x)\, d[-g(x)] $ with respect to $g$, a function of bounded variation. This condition is applied to analyze the behavior of a generalized…
We consider the following question: if a function of the form $\int_0^{\infty}\varphi(t)\, e^{-xt}dt$ is completely monotonic, is it then $\varphi\ge0$? It turns out that the question is related to a moment problem. In the end we apply…

In this paper, we prove logarithmically complete monotonicity properties of certain ratios of the $k$-gamma function. As a consequence, we deduce some inequalities involving the $k$-gamma and $k$-trigamma functions.
The article considers the generalized k-Bessel functions and represents it as Wright functions. Then we study the monotonicity properties of the ratio of two different orders k- Bessel functions, and the ratio of the k-Bessel and the…
In some inferential statistical methods, such as tests and confidence intervals, it is important to describe the stochastic behavior of statistical functionals, aside from their large sample properties. We study such behavior in terms of…

As an efficient mathematical tool, monotonicity rules play an extremely crucial role in the real analysis field. In this paper, we explore some monotonicity rules for quotient of Delta, Nabla and Diamond-Alpha integrals with variable upper…
We characterize real functions $f$ on an interval $(-\alpha,\alpha)$ for which the entrywise matrix function $[a_{ij}] \mapsto [f(a_{ij})]$ is positive, monotone and convex, respectively, in the positive semidefiniteness order. Fractional…
This paper systematically investigates the absolute monotonicity of two function families associated with the Gaussian hypergeometric function $F(a, b; c; x)$ (where $a,b,c\in\mathbb{R}_+$): $\mathcal{F}_p(x)=(1-x)^pF(a,b;c;x)$ and…
In this paper our aim is to present the completely monotonicity and convexity properties for the Wright function. As consequences of these results, we present some functional inequalities. Moreover, we derive the monotonicity and…
We mainly establish a monotonicity property between some special Riemann sums of a convex function $f$ on $[a,b]$, which in particular yields that $\frac{b-a}{n+1}\sum_{i=0}^n f\left(a+i\frac{b-a}{n}\right)$ is decreasing while…

We investigate conditions for logarithmic complete monotonicity of product ratios of gamma and q-gamma functions whose arguments are linear functions of the variable. We give necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of nonnegativity of…
