In the paper, the authors discover an integral representation, some inequalities, and complete monotonicity of Bernoulli numbers of the second kind.
In the paper, the authors show that the weighted geometric mean and the logarithmic mean are Bernstein functions and establish integral representations of these means by Cauchy's integral theorem in the theory of complex functions.
In the paper, by directly verifying an inequality which gives a lower bound for the first order modified Bessel function of the first kind, the authors supply a new proof for the complete monotonicity of a difference between the exponential function $e^{1/t}$ and the trigamma function $ψ'(t)$ on $(0,\infty)$.
It is general knowledge that the harmonic mean $H(x,y)=\frac2{\frac1x+\frac1y}$ and that the geometric mean $G(x,y)=\sqrt{xy}\,$, where $x$ and $y$ are two positive numbers. In the paper, the authors show by several approaches that the harmonic mean $H_{x,y}(t)=H(x+t,y+t)$ and the geometric mean $G_{x,y}(t)=G(x+t,y+t)$ are all Bernstein functions of $t\in(-\min\{x,y\},\infty)$ and establish integral representations of the means $H_{x,y}(t)$ and $G_{x,y}(t)$.
Let $a=(a_1,a_2,...c,a_n)$ for $n\in\mathbb{N}$ be a given sequence of positive numbers. In the paper, the authors establish, by using Cauchy's integral formula in the theory of complex functions, an integral representation of the principal branch of the geometric mean {equation*} G_n(a+z)=\Biggl[\prod_{k=1}^n(a_k+z)\Biggr]^{1/n} {equation*} for $z\in\mathbb{C}\setminus(-\infty,-\min\{a_k,1\le k\le n\}]$, and then provide a new proof of the well known GA mean inequality.
