The reciprocal of the normalized tail of the Maclaurin power series expansion of the hyperbolic sinc function is a convex function

The classical Bernoulli numbers $B_j$ are generated by \begin{equation}\label{Bernoulli-No-Generating} \frac{x}{\operatorname{e}^x-1}=\sum_{j=0}^\infty B_j\frac{x^j}{j!}=1-\frac{x}2+\sum_{j=1}^\infty ...

Prove $\int_0^{\infty}{\frac{1}{e^{sx}\sqrt{1+s^2}}}ds < \arctan\left(\frac1x\right),\quad\forall x\ge1$

The question is to prove: $$ \int_0^{\infty}{\frac{1}{e^{sx}\sqrt{1+s^2}}}ds < \arctan\left(\frac1x\right),\quad\forall x\ge1. $$ Numerically it seems to hold true. So I have made some attempts to ...

The exact constant in a bound on ratios of Gamma functions

The answer to another question (Upper bound of the fraction of Gamma functions) gave an asymptotic upper bound for an expression with Gamma functions: $$\left(\frac{\Gamma(a+b)}{a\Gamma(a)\Gamma(b)}\...

Upper bound of the fraction of Gamma functions

Is there a simple upper bound of the following fraction of Gamma functions for any $a,b\geq1/2$: $$\left(\frac{\Gamma(a+b)}{a\Gamma(a)\Gamma(b)}\right)^{1/a}$$ An upper bound in the following form is ...

Ratio of Selberg integral

I'm considering a ratio of incomplete Selberg integral: $$f_n(a,b)=\frac{\int_{\Delta_a}\prod_{i=1}^nx_i^{\alpha-\frac{n+1}{2}}\prod_{i=1}^n(1-x_i)^{-1/2}\prod_{i<j}|x_i-x_j|}{\int_{\Delta_b}\prod_{...

Non-asymptotic upper bound of right tail of Gamma function

I'm wondering if there is any non-asymptotic upper bound for the following Gamma function: $$f_a(x)=\int_{x}^{\infty}t^a\exp(-t)dt$$ for $x>0,a>0$? Something like $x^a\exp(-x)$?

Ratio of hypergeometric function

Given $a>b>0$, is there any upper bound of the following ratio of hypergeometric function? $$\frac{_2F_1(a,1-b;a+1;x)}{_2F_1(a,1-b;a+1;y)}$$ for $1>x>y>0$ ideally in the form like some ...

(Sharp) inequality for Beta function

I am trying to prove the following inequality concerning the Beta Function: $$ \alpha x^\alpha B(\alpha, x\alpha) \geq 1 \quad \forall 0 < \alpha \leq 1, \ x > 0, $$ where as usual $B(a,b) = \...

A question on the sine function

The Fejer-Jackson-Gronwall inequality involving the sine function is as follows: $$\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{\sin kx}k>0\quad\text{for all}\ n=1,2,3,\ldots\ \text{and}\ 0<x<\pi.$$ Here I ask the ...

$\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{\sin kx}{k^\alpha} >0\quad\text{for all}\ n=1,2,3,\ldots\ \text{and}\ 0<x<\pi, \text{and}\ \alpha \ge 1$

The Fejer-Jackson inequality as follows: $$\sum_{k=1}^n\frac{\sin kx}k>0\quad\text{for all}\ n=1,2,3,\ldots\ \text{and}\ 0<x<\pi.$$ I conjecture that the inequality as follows holds: $$\sum_{...

How to prove a simple Struve inequality

It appears from the figure 11.3.4 of dlmf that the Struve function $M_1(x)$ is monotonically decreasing for positive $x$. The asymptotic expansion (11.6.2) shows that the limit is $-2/\pi$. So it ...

Estimate of a ratio of two incomplete gamma functions

I would like to bound from above the expression $$ \frac{\Gamma(\alpha,x)-\Gamma(\alpha,y)}{\Gamma(\beta,x)-\Gamma(\beta,y)} $$ for $x>y>0$. By plotting the above expression I have found that ...
