Abstract
We prove that the function Γ (x + a)Γ (x + b)/|Γ (x + c + iy)|2,a + b = 2c, and its q-analogue are of the form e-h(x,y) and h is completely monotonic in x. In particular both Γ (x + a)Γ (x + b)/|Γ (x + c + iy)|2 and Γ q(x + a)Γ q(x + b)/|Γ q(x + c + iy)|2 are Laplace transforms of infinitely divisible distributions. We also extend Lerch's inequality to the q-gamma function.
