Some specific case of the abc-conjecture related to the Mason-Stothers proof of Serge Lang for polynomials?

I stumbled upon a version of the Mason-Stothers theorem, which can be modified to make a similar statement for natural numbers, which I think I can prove here. It is not the abc-conjecture, but it has ...

How to prove monotonicity of such function?

Let $0<a \le 1, \alpha<0$ 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,\...

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 \...

"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 $f^{(0)} = f$, ...
