Analogues of some theorems of Brown (1980) concerning renewal measures with DFR or IMRL underlying distributions are proved for delayed renewal measures. Some related results, such as partial converses of the main theorems, are also presented.

A set-valued analog of the elementary renewal theorem for Minkowski sums of random closed sets is considered. The corresponding renewal function is defined as where are Minkowski (element-wise) sums of i.i.d. random compact convex sets. In this paper we determine the limit of H(tK)/t as t tends to infinity. For K containing the origin as an interior point, where hK(u) is the support function of K and is the set of all unit vectors u with EhA(u) > 0. Other set-valued generalizations of the renewal function are also suggested.

Denote by Jν the Bessel function of the first kind of order ν and μν,k is its kth positive zero. For ν > ½, a theorem of Lorch, Muldoon and Szegö states that the sequence [Formula: see text] is decreasing, another theorem of theirs states that the sequence [Formula: see text] has higher monotonicity properties. In the present paper, we proved that when ν > ½ the sequence [Formula: see text] has higher monotonicity properties and the properties imply those of the sequence of the local maxima of the function x-ν+1|Jν-1(x)|, x ∈ (0, ∞), i.e. the sequence [Formula: see text] has higher monotonicity properties.
