Abstract:
An interpretation of log-concavity and log-convexity as aging notions is given in this paper. It imitates a stochastic ordering characterization of the NBU (new better than used) and the NWU (new worse than used) notions but stochastic ordering is now replaced by the likelihood ratio ordering. The new characterization of log-concavity and log-convexity sheds new light on these properties and enables one to obtain intuitively simple proofs of the log-convexity and log-concavity of some first passage times of interest in branching processes and in reliability theory.

Abstract:
Log-concave random variables and their various properties play an increasingly important role in probability, statistics, and other fields. For a distribution F, denote by 𝒟F the set of distributions G such that the convolution of F and G has a log-concave probability mass function or probability density function. In this paper, we investigate sufficient and necessary conditions under which 𝒟F ⊆ 𝒟G, where F and G belong to a parametric family of distributions. Both discrete and continuous settings are considered.

Abstract:
Recently, Sun posed a series of conjectures on the log-concavity of the sequence , where is a familiar combinatorial sequence of positive integers. Luca and Stănică, Hou et al. and Chen et al. proved some of Sun's conjectures. In this paper, we present a criterion on the log-concavity of the sequence . The criterion is based on the existence of a function f(n) that satisfies some inequalities involving terms related to the sequence . Furthermore, we present a heuristic approach to compute f(n). As applications, we prove that, for the Zagier numbers , the sequences are strictly log-concave, which confirms a conjecture of Sun. We also prove the log-concavity of the sequence of Cohen–Rhin numbers.

Abstract:
Let [An,k]n,k⩾0 be an infinite lower triangular array satisfying the recurrencefor n ⩾ 1 and k ⩾ 0, where A0,0 = 1, A0,k = Ak,–1 = 0 for k > 0. We present some criteria for the log-concavity of rows and strong q-log-convexity of generating functions of rows. Our results can be applied to many well-known triangular arrays, such as the Pascal triangle, the Stirling triangle of the second kind, the Bell triangle, the large Schröder triangle, the Motzkin triangle, and the Catalan triangles of Aigner and Shapiro, in a unified approach. In addition, we prove that the binomial transformation not only preserves the strong q-log-convexity property, but also preserves the strong q-log-concavity property. Finally, we demonstrate that the strong q-log-convexity property is preserved by the Stirling transformation and Whitney transformation of the second kind, which extends some known results for the strong q-log-convexity property.
