A function \(f(x)\) defined on \(\mathbb{R}\) is said to be infinitely divisible, if \((f(x))^r\) is positive definite for every \(r\geq 0\). In this paper, which is a continuation of \textit{R. Bhatia} and \textit{H. Kosaki} [Linear Algebra Appl. 424, 36--54 (2007; Zbl 1124.15015)] the author gives more examples of infinitely divisible functions. Using a very interesting technique the author determines when the function \({\cosh (vx)+ t\over\cosh(x)+ s}\), \(v\in [0,1]\), \(s,t\in (-1,1]\), is infinitely divisible.
