A completely monotonic function involving the gamma and tri-gamma functions

In the paper the author provides necessary and sufficient conditions on $a$ for the function $\frac{1}{2}\ln(2π)-x+\bigl(x-\frac{1}{2}\bigr)\ln x-\lnΓ(x)+\frac1{12}{ψ'(x+a)}$ and its negative to be completely monotonic on $(0,\infty)$, where $a\ge0$ is a real number, $Γ(x)$ is the classical gamma function, and $ψ(x)=\frac{Γ'(x)}{Γ(x)}$ is the di-gamma function. As applications, some known results and new inequalities are derived.
