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.

In the paper, by virtue of convolution theorem for the Laplace transforms, logarithmic convexity of the gamma function, Bernstein's theorem for completely monotonic functions, and other techniques, the author finds necessary and sufficient conditions for a difference defined by four derivatives of a function containing trigamma function to be completely monotonic. Moreover, by virtue of Cebysev integral inequality, the author presents logarithmic convexity of the sequence of polygamma functions.

AbstractLet $\Gamma (x)$ Γ ( x ) denote the classical Euler gamma function. We set $\psi _{n}(x)=(-1)^{n-1}\psi ^{(n)}(x)$ ψ n ( x ) = ( − 1 ) n − 1 ψ ( n ) ( x ) ($n\in \mathbb{N}$ n ∈ N ), where $\psi ^{(n)}(x)$ ψ ( n ) ( x ) denotes the nth derivative of the psi function $\psi (x)=\Gamma '(x)/\Gamma (x)$ ψ ( x ) = Γ ′ ( x ) / Γ ( x ) . For λ, α, $\beta \in \mathbb{R}$ β ∈ R and $m,n\in \mathbb{N}$ m , n ∈ N , we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the functions $$ L(x;\lambda ,\alpha ,\beta )=\psi _{m+n}(x)-\lambda \psi _{m}(x+ \alpha ) \psi _{n}(x+\beta ) $$ L ( x ; λ , α , β ) = ψ m + n ( x ) − λ ψ m ( x + α ) ψ n ( x + β ) and $-L(x;\lambda ,\alpha ,\beta )$ − L ( x ; λ , α , β ) to be completely monotonic on $(-\min (\alpha ,\beta ,0),\infty )$ ( − min ( α , β , 0 ) , ∞ ) .As a result, we generalize and refine some inequalities involving the polygamma functions and also give some inequalities in terms of the ratio of gamma functions.

Necessary and sufficient conditions on weight pairs guaranteeing the two-weight inequalities for the potential operators(Iαf)(x)=∫0∞(f(t)/|x−t|1−α)dtand(ℐα1,α2f)(x,y)=∫0∞∫0∞(f(t,τ)/|x−t|1−α1|y−τ|1−α2)dtdτon the cone of nonincreasing functions are derived. In the case ofℐα1,α2, we assume that the right-hand side weight is of product type. The same problem for other mixed-type double potential operators is also studied. Exponents of the Lebesgue spaces are assumed to be between 1 and ∞.

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.

AbstractThe purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between the quotient problem for right noetherian nonsingular rings and the quotient problem for semicritical rings. It is shown that a right noetherian nonsingular ring R has an artinian classical quotient ring iff certain semicritical factor rings R/Ki, i = 1,…,n, possess artinian classical quotient rings and regular elements in R/Ki lift to regular elements of R for all i. If R is a two sided noetherian nonsingular ring, then the existence of an artinian classical quotient ring is equivalent to each R/Ki possessing an artinian classical quotient ring and the right Krull primes of R consisting of minimal prime ideals. If R is also weakly right ideal invariant, then the former condition is redundant. Necessary and sufficient conditions are found for a nonsingular semicritical ring to have an artinian classical quotient ring.

J. Lambek and G. Michler [3] have initiated the study of a ring of quotients RP associated with a two-sided prime ideal P in a right noetherian ring R. The ring RP is the quotient ring (in the sense of [1]) associated with the hereditary torsion class τ consisting of all right R-modules M for which HomR(M, ER(R/P)) = 0, where ER(X) is the injective hull of the R-module X.In the present paper, we shall study further the properties of the ring RP. The main results are Theorems 4.3 and 4.6. Theorem 4.3 gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the torsion class associated with P to have property (T), as well as some properties of RP when these conditions are indeed satisfied, while Theorem 4.6 gives necessary and sufficient conditions for R to satisfy the right Ore condition with respect to (P).
