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 convolution theorem of the Laplace transforms, Bernstein's theorem for completely monotonic functions, and logarithmic concavity of a function involving exponential functions, the author(1) finds necessary and sufficient conditions for a ratio involving trigamma and tetragamma functions to be monotonic on the right real semi-axis;(2) and presents alternative proofs of necessary and sufficient conditions for a function and its negativity involving trigamma and tetragamma functions to be completely monotonic on the positive semi-axis.These results generalizes known conclusions recently obtained 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.

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.

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.

Let ƒ(x) be a C-valued function which is integrable with respect to a positive measure m on the Borel σ-field of R = (– ∞, ∞). We shall give necessary and sufficient conditions under which the following Fourier-Laplace transform f(λ) of ƒ(x) decays exponentially as λ → ∞:where θ is a constant with –π/2 ≤ θ ≤ π/2.
