In geometric function theory, generalized elliptic integrals and
functions arise from the Schwarz-Christoffel transformation of the
upper half-plane onto a parallelogram and are naturally related to
Gaussian hypergeometric functions. Certain combinations of these
integrals also occur in analytic number theory in the study of
Ramanujan's modular equations and approximations to $\pi$. The
authors study the monotoneity and convexity properties of these
quantities and obtain sharp inequalities for them.
