摘要
In the paper, necessary and sufficient conditions are provided for a function involving the divided difference of two psi functions to be completely monotonic. Consequently, a class of inequalities for sums are presented, the logarithmically complete monotonicity of a function involving the ratio of two gamma functions are derived, and two double inequalities for bounding the ratio of two gamma functions are discovered.
