Modified Dini functions: monotonicity patterns and functional inequalities

Acta Mathematica Hungarica volume 149, pages 120–142 (2016)Cite this article

Abstract

We deduce some new functional inequalities, like Turán type inequalities, Redheffer type inequalities, and a Mittag-Leffler expansion for a special combination of modified Bessel functions of the first kind, called modified Dini functions. Moreover, we show the complete monotonicity of a quotient of modified Dini functions by involving a new continuous infinitely divisible probability distribution. The key tool in our proofs is a recently developed infinite product representation for a special combination of Bessel functions of the first kind, which was very useful in determining the radius of convexity of some normalized Bessel functions of the first kind.
