Abstract
The paper deals with complete monotonicity and log-convexity of the type-1 and type-2 generalized Krätzel functions. The Laguerre type and Turán type inequalities for these functions are also substantiated. The generalized Krätzel functions of both types were brought in closed form via Fox’s H-function and existence conditions are given. The asymptotic behavior of these functions at zero and infinity were deduced and methods for the evaluation of some integrals involving the generalized Krätzel function are indicated.
