Functional inequalities involving Bessel and modified Bessel functions of the first kind

In this paper, we extend some known elementary trigonometric inequalities, and their hyperbolic analogues to Bessel and modified Bessel functions of the first kind. In order to prove our main results, we present some monotonicity and convexity properties of some functions involving Bessel and modified Bessel functions of the first kind. We also deduce some Turán and Lazarević-type inequalities for the confluent hypergeometric functions.     

Inequalities for modified Bessel functions and their integrals

Simple inequalities for some integrals involving the modified Bessel functions _Iν(x)$I_{\nu }(x)$ and _Kν(x)$K_{\nu }(x)$ are established. We also obtain a monotonicity result for _Kν(x)$K_{\nu }(x)$ and a new lower bound, that involves gamma functions, for _K0(x)$K_0(x)$.     

On an identity for zeros of Bessel functions

In this paper our aim is to present an elementary proof of an identity of Calogero concerning the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind. Moreover, by using our elementary approach we present a new identity for the zeros of Bessel functions of the first kind, which in particular reduces to some other new identities. We also show that our method can be applied for the zeros of other special functions, like Struve functions of the first kind, and modified Bessel functions of the second kind.     

On integral representation of Bessel function of the first kind

A first kind Fredholm integral equation with nondegenerate kernel is given, which particular solution is the Bessel function of the first kind. This equation is solved by means of Mellin transform pair.     

Relative extrema of Legendre functions of the second kind

Let μ _k,n denote the relative maxima of ?Q _n(x)?, the Legendre function of the second kind, ordered so that μ _k+1,n occurs to the left of μ _k,n . They by analogy with a theorem of Szegö for Legendre polynomials, μ _k,n +1<μ _k,n ,k=1,...,n,n=1,2,...     

k-途径正则有向图

In this paper, we define a class of strongly connected digraph, called the k-walk- regular digraph, study some properties of it, provide its some algebraic characterization and point out that the 0-walk-regular digraph is the same as the walk-regular digraph discussed by Liu and Lin in 2010 and the D-walk-regular digraph is identical with the weakly distance-regular digraph defined by Comellas et al in 2004.     

Extension of Redheffer type inequalities to modified Bessel functions

A collocation method based on the Bessel functions of the first kind for singular perturbated differential equations and residual correction

In this paper, a collocation method is given to solve singularly perturbated two‐point boundary value problems. By using the collocation points, matrix operations and the matrix relations of the Bessel functions of the first kind and their derivatives, the boundary value problem is converted to a system of the matrix equations. By solving this system, the approximate solution is obtained. Also, an error problem is constructed by the residual function, and it is solved by the presented method. Thus, the error function is estimated, and the approximate solutions are improved. Finally, numerical examples are given to show the applicability of the method, and also, our results are compared by existing results. Copyright © 2014 JohnWiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Interlacing of positive real zeros of Bessel functions

We unify the three distinct inequality sequences (Abramowitz and Stegun (1972) [1, 9.5.2]) of positive real zeros of Bessel functions into a single one.     

Inequalities and bounds for generalized complete elliptic integrals

Computable bounds for the generalized complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kind are obtained. Also, bounds for some combinations and products for integrals under discussion are established. It has been proven that both families of integrals are logarithmically convex as functions of the first parameter. This property has been employed to obtain several inequalities involving integrals in question.     

On the coefficients of Neumann series of Bessel functions

Recently Pogány and Süli (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 137 (7) (2009) 2363-2368) derived a closed-form integral expression for Neumann series of Bessel functions. In this note we precisely characterize the class of functions α that generate the integral representation of a Neumann series of Bessel functions in the sense that the restriction αN_|=(αn) of a function α to the set N of all positive integers is the sequence of coefficients of the initial Neumann series.     

Functions on discrete sets holomorphic in the sense of Isaacs, or monodiffric functions of the first kind

We study discrete analogues of holomorphic functions of one and two variables, especially those that were called monodiffric functions of the first kind by Rufus Isaacs. Discrete analogues of the Cauchy-Riemann operators, domains of holomorphy in one discrete variable, and the Hartogs phenomenon in two discrete variables are investigated.     

Integrals involving products of Airy functions, their derivatives and Bessel functions

A new integral representation of the Hankel transform type is deduced for the function Fn(x,Z)=Zn−1Ai(x−Z)Ai(x+Z) with x∈R, Z>0 and n∈N. This formula involves the product of Airy functions, their derivatives and Bessel functions. The presence of the latter allows one to perform various transformations with respect to Z and obtain new integral formulae of the type of the Mellin transform, K-transform, Laplace and Fourier transform. Some integrals containing Airy functions, their derivatives and Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind are computed explicitly. A new representation is given for the function ²|Ai(z)| with z∈C.     

Direct method to solve Volterra integral equation of the first kind using operational matrix with block-pulse functions

This article proposes a simple efficient direct method for solving Volterra integral equation of the first kind. By using block-pulse functions and their operational matrix of integration, first kind integral equation can be reduced to a linear lower triangular system which can be directly solved by forward substitution. Some examples are presented to illustrate efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.     

Two-sided bounds uniform in the real argument and the index for modified Bessel functions

Bounds uniform in the real argument and the index for the functionsa _ν (x)=xI′ _ν (x)/I′ _ν (x) andb _ν (x)=xK′ _ν (x)/K _ν (x), as well as for the modified Bessel functionsI _ν(x) andK _ν(x), are established in the quadrantx>0, ν≥0, except for some neighborhoods of the pointx=0, ν=0.

Bounds for ratios of modified Bessel functions and associated Turán-type inequalities

New sharp inequalities for the ratios of Bessel functions of consecutive orders are obtained using as main tool the first order difference-differential equations satisfied by these functions; many already known inequalities are also obtainable, and most of them can be either improved or the range of validity extended. It is shown how to generate iteratively upper and lower bounds, which are converging sequences in the case of the I-functions. Few iterations provide simple and effective upper and lower bounds for approximating the ratios Iν(x)/Iν−1(x) and the condition numbers for any x,ν?0; for the ratios Kν(x)/Kν+1(x) the same is possible, but with some restrictions on ν. Using these bounds Turán-type inequalities are established, extending the range of validity of some known inequalities and obtaining new inequalities as well; for instance, it is shown that Kν+1(x)Kν−1(x)/(Kν²(x))<|ν|/(|ν|−1), x>0, ν∉[−1,1] and that the inequality is the best possible; this proves and improves an existing conjecture.
