TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that the functions Θ(Θ(x) = [Gamma (x + 1)]^{1/x} (1 + 1/x)^x /x) and Θ (Θ (x, Θ) = Θ((Θ + 1)/x)) are Stieltjes transforms.

Completely monotonic functions involving the gamma and q-gamma functions

TL;DR: In this paper, an infinite family of functions involving the gamma function whose logarithmic derivatives are completely monotonic were given. And they were shown to give an infinitely divisible probability distribution for specific combinations of the gamma and q-gamma functions.

Stieltjes-Pick-Bernstein-Schoenberg and their connection to complete monotonicity

TL;DR: A survey of the relation between positive definite and negative definite functions on abelian semigroups with involution can be found in this paper, where it is shown that the Gamma function is logarithmically completely monotonic.

On infinitely divisible matrices, kernels, and functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss two applications to the study of characteristic functions and completely monotonic functions, and show how the classical representation theorems for infinitely divisible laws may be obtained.
