"Insanely increasing" $C^\infty$ function with upper bound

Let $C^\infty$ denote the collection of functions $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ such that for every positive integer $n$, the $n$-th derivative of $f$ exists. For $f\in C^\infty$ we set $f^{(0)} = f$, ...

$n$-th derivative of $\exp\left(-\frac{\lambda(x-\mu)^2}{2\mu^2x}\right)$

Let $\lambda$ and $\mu$ be two positive real numbers and let denote $f$ the function defined as: $$\forall x>0,~f(x):= \exp\left(-\frac{\lambda(x-\mu)^2}{2\mu^2x}\right).$$ I am struggling to find ...

Subdifferential of a convex function admits a continuous selection

Let $F$ be a continuous convex function on $\mathbb{R}^n$. If the subdifferential $\partial F(x)$ of $F(x)$ admits a continuous selection, for every $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$, does it mean that $F$ is ...

Derivate involving Bessel function of second type

Let. $$f := (x, y) \mapsto \text{BesselK}(1, c \cdot (a - b \cdot (x + y))) \cdot \exp(c \cdot b \cdot (y - x))$$ Is there a close formula for this $$\frac{\partial^{m+n}}{\partial y^m \partial x^n} f(...

Why this function is monotonic?

Let $a> 0, \alpha<0$ and $\beta>0$. How to prove that the function: $$f(x)=\frac{(\Gamma(a)-\Gamma(a,\alpha \ln(\beta x))) (\alpha\ln(x))^a}{(\alpha\ln(\beta x))^a (\Gamma(a)-\Gamma(a,\alpha \...
