Sums Involving the Digamma Function Connected to the Incomplete Beta Function and the Bessel functions [PDF]
We calculate some infinite sums containing the digamma function in closed form. These sums are related either to the incomplete beta function or to the Bessel functions.

Notes on three conjectures involving the digamma and generalized digamma functions [PDF]
In the paper, we solve one conjecture on an inequality involving digamma function, an open problem, and a conjecture on monotonicity of functions involving generalized digamma function. We also prove a new inequality for digamma function.

New Closed Form Estimators for the Beta Distribution
In this paper, we detail closed form estimators for beta distribution that are simpler than those proposed by Tamae, Irie and Kubokawa. The proposed estimators are shown to have smaller asymptotic variances and smaller asymptotic covariances compared to ...

Extension of complete monotonicity results involving the digamma function
By using some analytical techniques, we prove a complete monotonicity property of a certain function involving the (p, k)-digamma function. Subsequently, we derive some inequalities for the (p, k)- digamma function.

Monotonic and Logarithmically Convex Properties of a Function Involving Gamma Functions
Using the series-expansion of digamma functions and other techniques, some monotonicity and logarithmical concavity involving the ratio of gamma function are obtained, which is to give a partially affirmative answer to an open problem posed by B.-N.Guo ...

MONOTONICITY AND CONVEXITY PROPERTIES OF THE NIELSEN’S β-FUNCTION
The Nielsen’s β-function provides a powerful tool for evaluating and estimating certain integrals, series and mathematical constants. It is related to other special functions such as the digamma function, the Euler’s beta function and the Gauss ...
