In the paper, by convolution theorem for the Laplace transforms and analytic techniques, the author finds necessary and sufficient conditions for complete monotonicity, monotonicity, and inequalities of several functions involving polygamma functions. By these results, the author derives a lower bound of a function related to the sectional curvature of the manifold of the beta distributions. Finally, the author poses several guesses and open problems related to monotonicity, complete monotonicity, and inequalities of several functions involving polygamma functions.

In the paper, by convolution theorem of the Laplace transforms, a monotonicity rule for the ratio of two Laplace transforms, Bernstein's theorem for completely monotonic functions, and other analytic techniques, the author (1) presents the decreasing monotonicity of a ratio constituted via three derivatives of a function involving trigamma function; (2) discovers necessary and sufficient conditions for a function constituted via three derivatives of a function involving trigamma function to be completely monotonic. These results conform previous guesses posed by the author.

AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions are presented for a function involving the divided difference of the psi function to be completely monotonic and for a function involving the ratio of two gamma functions to be logarithmically completely monotonic. From these, some double inequalities are derived for bounding polygamma functions, divided differences of polygamma functions, and the ratio of two gamma functions.

In this paper, the authors prove some inequalities and completely monotonic properties of polygamma functions. As an application, we give lower bound for the zeta function on natural numbers. Partially, we answer the fifth and sixth open problems listed in [F. Qi and R. P. Agarwal, On complete monotonicity for several classes of functions related to ratios of gamma functions, J. Inequalities Appl. 2019(36) (2019) 42]. We propose two open problems on completely monotonic functions related to polygamma functions.

AbstractIn the paper, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for two families of functions involving divided differences of the di- and tri-gamma functions to be completely monotonic. Consequently, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for two families of functions involving the ratio of two gamma functions to be logarithmically completely monotonic. Furthermore, we deduce some inequalities for bounding the ratio of two gamma functions and divided differences of polygamma functions.

Abstract Let F denote the factorable matrix and X ∈ {ℓp , c 0, c, ℓ ∞}. In this study, we introduce the domains X(F) of the factorable matrix in the spaces X. Also, we give the bases and determine the alpha-, beta- and gamma-duals of the spaces X(F). We obtain the necessary and sufficient conditions on an infinite matrix belonging to the classes (ℓ p (F), ℓ ∞), (ℓ p (F), f) and (X, Y(F)) of matrix transformations, where Y denotes any given sequence space. Furthermore, we give the necessary and sufficient conditions for factorizing an operator based on the matrix F and derive two factorizations for the Cesàro and Hilbert matrices based on the Gamma matrix. Additionally, we investigate the norm of operators on the domain of the matrix F. Finally, we find the norm of Hilbert operators on some sequence spaces and deal with the lower bound of operators on the domain of the factorable matrix.

Recently s-FR and s-ST orderings have been defined in the literature. They are more general in the sense that most of the earlier known partial orderings reduce as particular cases of these orderings. Moreover, these orderings have helped in defining new and useful ageing criterion. In this paper, using Laplace transform, we characterize, by means of necessary and sufficient conditions. the property that two life distributions are ordered in the s-FR and s-ST sense. The characterization of LR, FR, MR, VR, STand HAMR orderings follow as particular cases.
