+# Absolutely Monotone Functions
+
+A function `f : ℝ → ℝ` is absolutely monotone on a set `s` if it is smooth on `s` and all its
+iterated derivatives within `s` are nonnegative on `s`.
+
+## Main definitions
+
+* `AbsolutelyMonotoneOn` — smooth on `s` with nonnegative iterated derivatives within `s`
+
+## Main results
+
+* Closure under `add`, `smul`, `mul`
