Inequalities and monotonicity of ratios for generalized hypergeometric function

Inequalities and monotonicity of ratios for generalized hypergeometric function

Abstract. We find two-sided inequalities for the generalized hypergeometric function with positive parameters restricted by certain additional conditions. Our lower bounds are asymptotically precise at x = 0, while the upper bounds are either asymptotically precise or at least agree with q+1Fq((aq+1), (bq);−x) at x = ∞. Inequalities are derived as corollaries of a theorem asserting the monotony...

Inequalities for sections of exponential function series and proofs of some conjectures on monotonicity of ratios of Kummer, Gauss and generalized hypergeometric functions

In the preprint [1] 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 1993. In this paper we prove some conjectures from [1] for Kummer hypergeometric functions and its further generalizations for Gauss and generalized ...

Monotonicity and inequalities for the gamma function

Inequalities for Gamma Function Ratios

Write R(x, y) = Γ(x + y) Γ(x). Inequalities for this ratio have interesting applications, and have been considered by a number of writers over a long period. In a Monthly article [7], Wendel showed that x(x + y) y−1 ≤ R(x, y) ≤ x y for 0 ≤ y ≤ 1. (1) Wendel's method was an ingenious application of Hölder's inequality to the integral definition of the gamma function. Note that both inequalities ...

Monotonicity, convexity, and inequalities for the generalized elliptic integrals

We provide the monotonicity and convexity properties and sharp bounds for the generalized elliptic integrals [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] depending on a parameter [Formula: see text], which contains an earlier result in the particular case [Formula: see text].
