摘要
Let K-nu be the modified Bessel functions of the second kind of order nu. The ratio Q(nu) (x) - xK(nu)-1 (x) /K-nu (x) appeared in physics and probability. In this paper, we collate properties of this ratio, and prove the conjecture that (-1)(n) Q(nu)((n)) (x) > (<) 0 for x > 0 and n = 2,3 if vertical bar nu vertical bar > (<) 1/2 holds for n = 2. This yields several new consequences and improves some known results. Finally, two conjectures are proposed.
