We derive an integral expression $G(z)$ for the reciprocal gamma function, $1/\Gamma(z)=G(z)/\pi$, that is valid for all $z\in\mathbb{C}$, without the need for analytic continuation. The same integral avoids the singularities of the gamma…

We consider differences between $\log \Gamma(x)$ and truncations of certain classical asymptotic expansions in inverse powers of $x-\lambda$ whose coefficients are expressed in terms of Bernoulli polynomials $B_n(\lambda)$, and we obtain…

Geometrically, $\int_{a}^{b}\frac{1}{x}dx$ means the area under the curve $\frac{1}{x}$ from $a$ to $b$, where $0<a<b$, and this area gives a positive number. Using this area argument, in this expository note, we present some visual…

Using some simple combinatorial arguments, we establish some new estimates for the prime counting function and its allied functions. In particular we show that \begin{align}\pi(x)=\Theta(x)+O\bigg(\frac{1}{\log x}\bigg), \nonumber…

We define an absolutely convergent series for the upper incomplete Gamma function $\Gamma(s,z)$ for $z\geq 1$ and $s\in \mathbb{C}$. We express this series using certain polynomials which we define using the Stirling numbers of the first…

The research shows that Riemann proved that all of zeros of Riemann's zeta function are on $\sigma=1/2$ based on the functional equation \begin{align*} \pi^{-\frac{s}{2}}\Gamma \left( \frac{s}{2} \right) \zeta(s)&={\frac{1}{s(s-1)} +…

Euler's Gamma function $\Gamma$ either increases or decreases on intervals between two consequtive critical points. The inverse of $\Gamma$ on intervals of increase is shown to have an extension to a Pick-function and similar results are…

We present two integral representations of the logarithm of the Glaisher-Kinkelin constant. The calculations are based on definite integral expressions of $\log\Gamma(x)$, $\Gamma$ being the usual Gamma function, due respectively to F\'eaux…

We prove that $$ \sum_{n \leq x} \varphi([x/n])\leq\bigg(\frac{1380}{4009}+\frac{2629}{4009}\cdot\frac1{\zeta(2)}+o(1)\bigg)x\log x $$ as $x\to\infty$, where $\varphi$ denotes the Euler totient function and $[x]$ denotes the integer part of…

Nicolas inequality we deal can be written as \begin{equation}\label{Nicineq} e^\gamma \log\log N_x < \dfrac{N_x}{\varphi(N_x)}\,, \end{equation} where $x\ge 2$, $N_x$ denotes the product of the primes less or equal than $x$, $\gamma$ is the…

This communication shows the track for finding a solution for a sin(kx)/k**2 series and a fresh representation for the Euler's Gamma function in terms of Riemann's Zeta function. We have found a new series expression for the logarithm as a…

By defining $$I_n:=\int_{0}^{1}\int_{0}^{1} \frac{(x(1-x)y(1-y))^n}{(1-xy)(-\log xy)}\ dx dy$$ Sondow (see [2]) proved that $$I_n=\binom{2n}{n} \gamma+L_n-A_n$$ We prove asymptotic formula for $L_n$ and $A_n$ as $n\to\infty$, $$…

In a recent work [JNT \textbf{129}, 2154 (2009)], Gun and co-workers have claimed that the number $\,\log{\Gamma(x)} + \log{\Gamma(1-x)}\,$, $x$ being a rational number between $0$ and $1$, is transcendental with at most \emph{one} possible…

In this paper we provide a new series representation for the values of Riemann zeta function at integer arguments, namely: $ \zeta(m)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{m(-1)^{n-1}\Gamma(1-\omega_{m}n)...\Gamma(1-\omega_{m}^{m-1}n)}{n!n^m}$, where…

We use a method, first developed for the Riemann zeta-function by Masser in ["Rational values of the Riemann zeta function", Journ. Num. Th. 131 (2011), 2037-2046], to prove a new zero estimate for polynomials in z and 1/Gamma(z). This…

We prove that the functions Phi(x)=[Gamma(x+1)]^{1/x}(1+1/x)^x/x and log Phi(x) are Stieltjes transforms.

We derive hypergeometric formulas for Euler's constant, gamma. A "by-product" of Thomae's transformation is an infinite product for e^gamma involving the binomial coefficients. Alternate, non-hypergeometric proofs use a double integral for…

In math.CA/0211148 we observed that $\ln(4/ \pi)$ is an "alternating" analog of Euler's constant $\gamma$. Here we use the binary expansion of an integer to give a rational series for $\ln(4/ \pi)$ analogous to Vacca's series for $\gamma$.…

In 2007, A.I.Aptekarev and his collaborators discovered a sequence of rational approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma$ defined by a linear recurrence. In this paper, we generalize this result and present an explicit construction of…

For any natural number $n\in\mathbb{N}$, $ \frac{1}{2n+\frac1{1-\gamma}-2}\le \sum_{i=1}^n\frac1i-\ln n-\gamma<\frac{1}{2n+\frac13}, $ where $\gamma=0.57721566490153286...m$ denotes Euler's constant. The constants $\frac{1}{1-\gamma}-2$ and…
