Which functions have all derivatives everywhere positive?

See completely monotonic in the literature. Function $f(x)$ is completely monotonic if and only if $f(-x)$ is the sort of function you're looking for.

Well, there are certainly more. If you look at the chain rule then you see that the $n$-th derivative is a linear combinations of products of derivatives of the two functions you compose with positive coefficients. Thus if you have two functions with your property, then their composition will again have only positive derivatives. So you can go on...


If $f(x)$ is a function with positive derivatives, then the function $f(-x)$ is completely monotonic. The completely monotonic functions are classified by Bochner's theorem; see Nimza's question On the generalisation of Bernstein's theorem on monotone functions.
