Let be a real continuous function on an interval, and consider the operator function defined for Hermitian operators . We will show that if is increasing w.r.t. the operator order, then for the operator function is convex. Let and be functions defined on an interval . Suppose is non-decreasing and is increasing. Then we will define the continuous kernel function by , which is a generalization of the Löwner kernel function. We will see that it is positive definite if and only if whenever for Hermitian operators , and we give a method to construct a large number of infinitely divisible kernel functions.
