Abstract

The aim of this work is to give an improvement of Mahmoud’s inequality from [M. Mahmoud, A. Talat, H. Moustafa, R.P. Agarwal, Completely monotonic functions involving Bateman’s G-function, J. Comput. Anal. Appl., vol. 29, no. 5, 2021, 970-986] about some lower and upper bounds for Wallis’ ratio.
