The monotonicity and convexity of a function involving psi function with applications

Abstract In this paper, we prove that the function x ↦ exp ( ψ ( x + 1 2 ) − 1 24 1 x 2 + 7 / 40 ) − x $$ x\mapsto\exp \biggl( \psi \biggl( x+\frac{1}{2} \biggr) -\frac {1}{24} \frac{1}{x^{2}+7/40} \biggr) -x $$ is decreasing from ( − 1 / 2 , ∞ ) $( -1/2,\infty ) $ onto ( 0 , 1 / 2 ) $( 0,1/2 ) $ an...
