Summary: Let \(g: [a, b]\to \mathbb{R}\) be a non-negative increasing differentiable function and \(f: [a, b]\to \mathbb{R}\) a non-negative function such that the quotient \(f/g'\) is non-decreasing. Then the function \[ Q(r)= (r+ 1) \int^ b_ a g(x)^ r f(x) dx \] is log-concave. If \(g(a)= 0\), \(b\in (a, \infty]\) and the quotient \(f/g'\) is non-increasing, then the function \(Q\) is log-convex.
