These satisfy Widder's conditions on the successive derivatives up to some finite order, and are not necessarily smooth. We show that such functions have a unique integral representation, along some generic kernel which is a truncated Laurent series approximating the standard Stieltjes kernel. We then obtain a two-to-one correspondence, via the logarithmic derivative, between these functions and a subclass of hyperbolically monotone functions of finite type. This correspondence generalizes a representation of HCM functions in terms of two Stieltjes transforms earlier obtained by the first author.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-04-18T17:58:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "finite order", "stieltjes functions", "hyperbolic monotonicity", "finite type", "satisfy widders conditions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160405267B" } } }
