Canonical functions are a powerful concept with numerous applications in the study of groups, monoids, and clones on countable structures with Ramsey-type properties. In this short note, we present a proof of the existence of canonical…
We give characterizations of unital uniform topological algebras and saturated locally multiplicatively convex algebras by means of multiplicative linear functionals. Some automatic continuity theorems in advertibly complete uniform…
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…
A generalization of Powers-St$\o$rmer's inequality for operator monotone functions on $[0, +\infty)$ and for positive linear functional on general $C^*$-algebras will be proved. It also will be shown that the generalized Powers-St$\o$rmer…
In this paper, we present some double inequalities involving certain ratios of the Gamma function. These results are further generalizations of several previous results. The approach is based on the monotonicity properties of some functions…
In this paper, we analyze problems involving matrix variables for which we use a noncommutative algebra setting. To be more specific, we use a class of functions (called NC analytic functions) defined by power series in noncommuting…
We apply to operator algebra theory a monotone selection principle which apparently escaped attention (of operator algebra theorists) so far. This principle relates to the basic order theoretic characterisation of von Neumann algebras given…
In this paper, we introduce and investigate a class P of continuous and periodic functions on R. The class P is defined so that second-order central differences of a function satisfy some concavity-type estimate. Although this definition…
In this note, we establish some new results on some special types of function algebras and also give new proofs to some existing ones
We continue the analysis in [H. Osaka and J. Tomiyama, Double piling structure of matrix monotone functions and of matrix convex functions, Linear and its Applications 431(2009), 1825 - 1832] in which the followings three assertions at each…
In this work we present a class of functions, motivated by gap functions, which we call G-coupling functions. We will show that these functions can generate a duality scheme for minimization problems by means of the general conjugation…
The central purpose of this article is to establish new inverse and implicit function theorems for differentiable maps with isolated critical points. One of the key ingredients is a discovery of the fact that differentiable maps with…
Let A be a C*-algebra and d from A into A** be a continuous linear map. We assume that d acts like derivation or anti-derivation at orthogonal elements for several types of orthogonality conditions such as ab=0, ab*=0, ab=ba=0 and…
The paper introduces a class of distances for linear behaviors over finite time horizons. These distances allow for comparisons between finite-horizon linear behaviors represented by matrices of possibly different dimensions. They remain…
In 2014, we determine the precise form of a continuous orthogonal form on a commutative real C$^*$-algebra. We also describe the general form of a (not-necessarily continuous) orthogonality preserving linear map between commutative unital…
Motivated by open questions in the papers " Refinements and sharpenings of some double inequalities for bounding the gamma function" and "Complete monotonicity and monotonicity of two functions defined by two derivatives of a function…
We present a new method for proving Correa-Jofr\'e-Thibault theorem that monotonicity of subdifferential implies convexity of the function. This new method is based on barrier functions. Barrier functions help overcome some of the main…
In this article we investigate the property of complete monotonicity within a special family $\mathcal{F}_s$ of functions in $s$ variables involving logarithms. The main result of this work provides a linear isomorphism between…
We study the holomorphic functions with Hadamard gaps in $\mathcal{N}_p$-spaces on the unit ball of $\mathbb{C}^n$ when $0<p \le n$ and $p>n$. A corollary on analytic functions with Hadamard gaps on $\mathcal{N}_p$-spaces on the unit disk…
In the paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are presented for a function involving a ratio of gamma functions to be logarithmically completely monotonic. This extends and generalizes the main result in [\emph{Inequalities and…
