1. Introduction. We will be interested in Tauberian theorems concerning the limiting behaviour of a monotone function U and its Laplace transform

A famous theorem of Karamata concerns the case in which the function U is regularly varying (i.e., U(tx)/U(t)xα(t → ∞) for x > 0). Here we will consider functions U that grow faster, in fact our conditions will be in terms of log U rather than on U itself. So it is convenient to write the Laplace transform in terms of q = log U. For a function q:R+R such that exp q is locally integrable and

we define the function by the relation
