Extension of a complete monotonicity theorem with applications

Let $F_p(x)=L(t^{p}f(t))={\int }_0^{\mathrm{\infty }}{t}^{p}f(t)e^{-xt}dt$ converge on $(0,\mathrm{\infty })$ for $p\in {\mathbb{N}}_0=\mathbb{N}\cup 0$, where $f(t)$ is positive on $(0,\mathrm{\infty })$. In a recent paper [Z.-H. Yang, A complete monotonicity theorem related to Fink’s inequality with applications, \emph{J. Math. Anal. Appl.} $\mathbf{\text{551}}$ (2025), no. 1, Paper no. 129600], the author proved the sufficient conditions for the function \begin{equation*} x\mapsto \prod_{j=1}^{n}F_{p_{j}}(x) -λ_{n}\prod_{j=1}^{n}F_{q_{j}}(x) \end{equation*} to be completely monotonic on $(0,\mathrm{\infty })$ by induction, where ${\mathit{p}}_{[n]}=(p_1,\mathrm{.}\mathrm{.}\mathrm{.},p_n)$ and ${\mathit{q}}_{[n]}=(q_1,\mathrm{.}\mathrm{.}\mathrm{.},q_n)\in {\mathbb{N}}_0^n$ for $n\ge 2$ satisfy ${\mathit{p}}_{[n]}\prec {\mathit{q}}_{[n]}$ However, the proof of the inductive step is wrong. In this paper, we prove the above result also holds for \boldsymbol{p}_[n]},\boldsymbol{q}_{[n] }\in \mathbb{I}^{k}, where $\mathbb{I}\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is an interval, which extends the above result and correct the error in the proof of the inductive step mentioned above. As applications of the extension of the known result, four complete monotonicity propositions involving the Hurwitz zeta function, alternating Hurwitz zeta function, the confluent hypergeometric function of the second and Mills ratio are established, which yield corresponding Turán type inequalities for these special functions.
