We consider the construction of insurance premiums that are monotonically increasing with respect to a loading parameter. By introducing weight functions that are totally positive of higher order, we derive higher monotonicity properties of…

We provide a sharp monotonicity theorem about the distribution of subharmonic functions on manifolds, which can be regarded as a new, measure theoretic form of the uncertainty principle. As an illustration of the scope of this result, we…

We derive two types of representation results for increasing convex functionals in terms of countably additive measures. The first is a max-representation of functionals defined on spaces of real-valued continuous functions and the second a…

In this note we study the monotonicity of the function $x\mapsto \psi(1 +bx)^a/\psi(1 + ax)^b$. We also give the several inequalities involving the psi function, whic is the logarithmic derivative of the gamma function.

For a general, associative addition rule defining a non-extensive thermodynamics we construct the strict monotonic function, which transforms it to an additive quantity. We investigate the evolution of one-particle distributions in the…

The authors establish the necessary and sufficient conditions under which certain combinations of Gaussian hypergeometric function and elementary function are monotone in the parameter, which generalize the recent results of generalized…

In the paper, the authors introduce a matrix-parametrized generalization of the multinomial probability mass function that involves a ratio of several multivariate gamma functions. They show the logarithmic complete monotonicity of this…

We exhibit proofs of two ergodic-theoretic results in the study of multiple recurrence using an analog of the density-increment argument of Roth and Gowers: Furstenberg's Multiple Recurrence Theorem (which implies Szemer\'edi's Theorem),…

We introduce proper display calculi for basic monotonic modal logic, the conditional logic CK and a number of their axiomatic extensions. These calculi are sound, complete, conservative and enjoy cut elimination and subformula property. Our…

In this paper we focus on the study of the monotonicity properties of the residual and the past extropy as well as on some characterization problems. We then apply the derived results to analyze further stochastic aspects of order…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$. We give conditions on the Fourier transform of its density for functionals of the form $H(a)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}h(\langle a,x\rangle)\mu^n(dx)$ to be Schur monotone. As applications, we…

In this paper our aim is to prove some monotonicity and convexity results for the modified Struve function of the second kind by using its integral representation. Moreover, as consequences of these results, we present some functional…

We show how recent results of Lieb and Seiringer [math-ph/0412009; Phys. Rev. A 71, 062329 (2005)] can be obtained from repeated use of the monotonicity of relative entropy under partial traces, and explain how to use their approach to…

Motivated by the work of Alzer and Richards \cite{ar}, here authors study the monotonicity and convexity properties of the function $$\Delta_{p,q} (r) = \frac{{E_{p,q}(r) - \left( {r'} \right)^p K_{p,q}(r) }}{{r^p }} - \frac{{E'_{p,q}(r) -…

In this paper we initiate the study of real operator monotonicity for functions of tuples of operators, which are multivariate structured maps with a functional calculus called free functions that preserve the order between real parts (or…

We establish some monotonicity results and functional inequalities for modified Lommel functions of the first kind. In particular, we obtain new Tur\'{a}n type inequalities and bounds for ratios of modified Lommel functions of the first…

The paper considers asymptotics of summation functions of additive and multiplicative arithmetic functions. We also study asymptotics of summation functions of natural and prime arguments. Several assertions on this subject are proved and…

Learning performance can show non-monotonic behavior. That is, more data does not necessarily lead to better models, even on average. We propose three algorithms that take a supervised learning model and make it perform more monotone. We…

It is well-known that the Shannon entropies of some parameterized probability distributions are concave functions with respect to the parameter. In this paper we consider a family of such distributions (including the binomial, Poisson, and…

We explore an asymptotic behavior of R\'enyi entropy along convolutions in the central limit theorem with respect to the increasing number of i.i.d. summands. In particular, the problem of monotonicity is addressed under suitable moment…
