Abstract:In the paper, a new upper bound in the second Kershaw's double inequality involving ratio of gamma functions is established, and, as generalizations of the second Kershaw's double inequality, the divided differences of the psi and polygamma functions are bounded.
“…it was claimed in [45,Remark 5] and [46,Remark 6] that the the identric mean I a,b (x) is a Bernstein function of x ∈ (− min{a, b}, ∞). See also [63, Section 1.5] and its preprint [61, Section 1.5].…”
Abstract. In the paper, the authors survey integral representations (including the Lévy-Khintchine representations) and applications of some bivariate means (including the logarithmic mean, the identric mean, Stolarsky's mean, the harmonic mean, the (weighted) geometric means and their reciprocals, and the Toader-Qi mean) and the multivariate (weighted) geometric means and their reciprocals, derive integral representations of bivariate complex geometric mean and its reciprocal, and apply these newly-derived integral representations to establish integral representations of Heronian mean of power 2 and its reciprocal.

“…The topic of bounding the ratio of two gamma functions has a history of at least sixty years since [53]. For more information on its history, backgrounds, motivations and recent developments, please refer to, for example, [2,3,25,28,29,30,33,38,42,46,56,57], especially to the expository and survey preprint [31] in which plentiful references are collected. For knowledge of mean values, please refer to the celebrated book [13] or the paper [32].…”

In the present paper, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for
the functions $x^\alpha\bigl\lvert\psi^{(i)}(x+\beta)\bigr\lvert$ and
$\alpha\bigl\lvert\psi^{(i)}(x+\beta)\bigr\lvert-x\bigl\lvert\psi^{(i+1)}(x+\beta)\bigr\lvert$
respectively to be monotonic and completely monotonic on $(0,\infty)$, where
$i\in\mathbb{N}$, $\alpha>0$ and $\beta\ge0$ are scalars, and $\psi^{(i)}(x)$
are polygamma functions.Comment: 14 page
