The Gamma function

2004
We have defined (Set Theory, III, p. 179) the function n! for every integer n ≥ 0, as equal to the product \(\prod\limits_{0 \leqslant k \leqslant n} {(n - k)}\); so 0!=1 and (n+1)!=(n+1)n! for n ≥ 0. We set г(n) = (n − 1)! for each integer n ≥ 1; we propose to define, on the set of real numbers x > 0, a continuous function г(x) extending the function ...

The Gamma Function

2012
In what follows, we introduce the classical Gamma function in Sect. 2.1. It is essentially understood to be a generalized factorial. However, there are many further applications, e.g., as part of probability distributions (see, e.g., Evans et al. 2000).

On gamma function inequalities

Scandinavian Actuarial Journal, 1973
Watson's method [1] is used to find two convergent monotonically non-decreasing sequences whose upper bounds are equal to Γ(l)Γ(l∓2a)/Γ2(l∓a) ( = K say), provided l > max (0, - 2a). Boyd [2] showed that Gurland's inequality [3] for K corresponds to the first term of the first sequence; Raja Rao's inequality [4] corresponds to the second term of the ...

An Inequality for Gamma Functions

Canadian Mathematical Bulletin, 1978
By using Bellman-Wishart distribution, Bellman [1], an inequality for gamma functions is derived. This inequality generalizes a recent inequality given by Selliah [4].

Inequalities for the gamma function

Some inequalities for the gamma function are given. These results refine the classical Stirling approximation and its many recent improvements.

Note on the Gamma Function

Canadian Journal of Mathematics, 1954
The gamma function Γ(z + 1) = П(z) has been defined in different ways:(1)(Weierstrass)(2)(Kuler)(3)(Gauss)(4)(Euler)(5)(Lerch)

The Gamma Functional Navigator

IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2004
We have developed a new device that allows precise guided surgery through gamma-camera images in real time. It consists of a portable mini gamma camera combined with an image guided surgery system. We call this new instrument the "Gamma Functional Navigator." The small gamma camera has been built by our group and has a spatial resolution of about 2 mm.

Multiple Gamma and related functions

Applied Mathematics and Computation, 2003
The authors give several new (and potentially useful) relationships between the multiple Gamma functions and other mathematical functions and constants. As by-products of some of these relationships, a classical definite integral due to Euler and other definite integrals are also considered together with closed-form evaluations of some series involving

The Gamma Function

1998
The problem of extending the function n! to real arguments and finding the simplest possible “factorial function” with value n! at n ∈ ℕ led Euler in 1729 to the Г-function. He gave the infinite product $$\Gamma \left( {z + 1} \right): = \frac{{1 \cdot {2^z}}}{{1 + z}} \cdot \frac{{{2^{1 - z}}{3^z}}}{{2 + z}} \cdot \frac{{{3^{1 - z}}{4^z}}}{{3 + z}}

On an inequality for gamma functions

Scandinavian Actuarial Journal, 1962
Abstract For all real values of α and λ satisfying the following inequality holds. When compared with a similar inequality due to Gurland [3] this is seen to be stronger for a certain range of α.
