Abstract

We denote by https://static-content.springer.com/image/art%3A10.1155%2FJIA%2F2006%2F48727/MediaObjects/13660_2005_Article_1604_IEq1_HTML.gif and https://static-content.springer.com/image/art%3A10.1155%2FJIA%2F2006%2F48727/MediaObjects/13660_2005_Article_1604_IEq2_HTML.gif the gamma and the incomplete gamma functions, respectively. In this paper we prove some monotonicity results for the gamma function and extend, to https://static-content.springer.com/image/art%3A10.1155%2FJIA%2F2006%2F48727/MediaObjects/13660_2005_Article_1604_IEq3_HTML.gif , a lower bound established by Elbert and Laforgia (2000) for the function https://static-content.springer.com/image/art%3A10.1155%2FJIA%2F2006%2F48727/MediaObjects/13660_2005_Article_1604_IEq4_HTML.gif , with https://static-content.springer.com/image/art%3A10.1155%2FJIA%2F2006%2F48727/MediaObjects/13660_2005_Article_1604_IEq5_HTML.gif , only for https://static-content.springer.com/image/art%3A10.1155%2FJIA%2F2006%2F48727/MediaObjects/13660_2005_Article_1604_IEq6_HTML.gif .
