In 1993 one of the authors formulated some conjectures on monotonicity of ratios for exponential series sections. They lead to more general conjecture on monotonicity of ratios of Kummer hypergeometric functions and was not proved from…

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 work we prove that an entire function $f(z)$ has only negative zeros if and only if its order is strictly less $1$, its root sequence is real-part dominating and there exists an nonnegative integer $m$ the real function…

The paper deals with particular classes of $q\times q$ matrix-valued functions which are holomorphic in $\mathbb{C}\setminus[\alpha,+\infty)$, where $\alpha$ is an arbitrary real number. These classes are generalizations of classes of…

We analyse some peculiar properties of the function of the Mittag-Leffler (M-L) type, $e_\alpha(t):= E_\alpha(-t^\alpha)$ for $0 <\alpha < 1$ and $t > 0$, which is known to be completely monotone (CM) with a non negative spectrum of…

We study the radius of absolute monotonicity R of rational functions with numerator and denominator of degree s that approximate the exponential function to order p. Such functions arise in the application of implicit s-stage, order p…

Assuming the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, we establish explicit bounds in the $q$-aspect for the logarithmic derivative $\left(L'/L\right)\left(\sigma,\chi\right)$ of Dirichlet $L$-functions, where $\chi$ is a primitive character modulo…

We show that certain quotients of Artin L-functions have infinitely many poles. Our result follows from a converse theorem for Maass forms of Laplace eigenvalue 1/4 in which the twisted L-functions are not assumed to be entire. We do not…

Using the Bernstein theorem we give a simple proof of the complete monotonicity of the three parameter generalized Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\alpha, \beta}^{\gamma}(-x)$ for $x \geq 0$ and suitably adjusted parameters $\alpha$, $\beta$…

Given an F-sigma-delta subset A of the real line R of Lebesgue measure zero, we construct a monotone absolutely continuous function f from R to R such that the little Lipschitz constant of f is equal to infinity exactly at points of A.

We show that integrals involving log-tangent function, with respect to certain square-integrable functions on $(0, \pi/2)$, can be evaluated by some series involving the harmonic number. Then we use this result to establish many closed…

The Margulis invariant is a function defined on a group of Lorentzian transformations $G$ acting on Minkowski space $\R^{2,1}$, that contains no elliptic elements. The spectrum of $G$ is the sequence of values of the Margulis invariant for…

In this note, we recall Kummer's Fourier series expansion of the 1-periodic function that coincides with the logarithm of the Gamma function on the unit interval $(0,1)$, and we use it to find closed forms for some numerical series related…

We establish an asymptotic formula for the logarithmic mean value of a 1-bounded multiplicative function that is sharp in many cases of interest. We derive from it a variety of applications, making progress on several old problems. As a…

We study the arctanh sums h(k) = sum_{n=2}^\infty arctanh(n^{-k}) as a function of a complex variable k. Building on the closed-form identity h(k) = (1/2) log(g(2k)/g(k)^2) (proved in the companion preprint arXiv:2602.06244), we develop the…

Given a function $f: (a,b) \rightarrow \mathbb{R},$ L\"owner's theorem states $f$ is monotone when extended to self-adjoint matrices via the functional calculus, if and only if $f$ extends to a self-map of the complex upper half plane. In…

We investigate the log-concavity on the half-line of the Wright function $\phi(-\alpha,\beta,-x),$ in the probabilistic setting $\alpha\in (0,1)$ and $\beta \ge 0.$ Applications are given to the construction of generalized entropies…

In this work, we extend the concept of the Stieltjes derivative to encompass left-continuous derivators with bounded variation, thereby relaxing the monotonicity constraint. This generalization necessitates a refined definition of the…

In this paper certain Tur\'an type inequalities for some Lommel functions of the first kind are deduced. The key tools in our proofs are the infinite product representation for these Lommel functions of the first kind, a classical result of…

Let $t_{i}=\frac{i}{n}$ for $i=0,...,n$ be equally spaces knots in the unit interval $[0,1].$ Let $\mathcal{S}_{n}$ be the space of piecewise linear continuous functions on $[0,1]$ with knots $\pi_{n}=\{t_{i}:0\leq i\leq n\}.$ Then we have…
