Real Analytic Functions as Ratios of Absolutely Monotonic Functions

Spline Functions and Approximation Theory

Abstract

The problem we consider here is under what conditions analytic functions which are positive on a segment of the real axis can be expressed as ratios of two absolutely monotonic functions, that is, functions all of whose derivatives are non-negative on the given segment.
