The relationships between port-Hamiltonian systems modeling and the notion of monotonicity are explored. The earlier introduced notion of incrementally port-Hamiltonian systems is extended to maximal cyclically monotone relations, together…
We prove some new results and unify the proofs of old ones involving complete monotonicity of expressions involving gamma and $q$-gamma functions, $0 < q < 1$. Each of these results implies the infinite divisibility of a related probability…

The problem is considered as to whether a monotone function defined on a subset P of a Euclidean space can be strictly monotonically extended to the whole space. It is proved that this is the case if and only if the function is {\em…

In this paper, we study some intrinsic characterization of conformally compact manifolds. We show that, if a complete Riemannian manifold admits an essential set and its curvature tends to -1 at infinity in certain rate, then it is…
In the present paper we obtain a new homological version of the implicit function theorem and some versions of the Darboux theorem. Such results are proved for continuous maps on topological manifolds. As a consequence, some versions of…

A cornerstone in convex analysis is the crucial relationship between functions and their convex conjugate via the Fenchel-Young inequality. In this dual variable setting, the maximal monotonicity of the contact set $ \big\{(x,y) \ \big| \…

A monotone function interval is the set of monotone functions that lie pointwise between two fixed monotone functions. We characterize the set of extreme points of monotone function intervals and apply this to a number of economic settings.…
