We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…
We introduce a gamma function $\Ga(x,z)$ in two complex variables which extends the classical gamma function $\Ga(z)$ in the sense that $\lim_{x\to 1}\Ga(x,z)=\Ga(z)$. We will show that many properties which $\Ga(z)$ enjoys extend in a…
The recurrence matrix relations, differentiation formulas, and analytical and fractional integral properties of incomplete gamma matrix functions $\gamma(Q, x)$ and $\Gamma(Q, x)$ are all covered in this article. The generalized incomplete…
Two kinds of infinite product representations for Vign\'eras multiple gamma function are presented. As an application of these formulas, a multiplication formula for the function is derived.
We generalize our previous new definition of Euler Gamma function to higher Gamma functions. With this unified approach, we characterize Barnes higher Gamma functions, Mellin Gamma functions, Barnes multiple Gamma functions, Jackson…
The elliptic gamma function is a generalization of the Euler gamma function. Its trigonometric and rational degenerations are the Jackson q-gamma function and the Euler gamma function. We prove multiplication formulas for the elliptic gamma…
Let $(a;q)_{\infty}$ be the $q$-Pochhammer symbol and $\mathrm{li}_2(x)$ be the dilogarithm function. Let $\prod_{\alpha,\beta,\gamma}$ be a finite product with every triple $(\alpha,\beta,\gamma)\in(\mathbb{R}_{>0})^3$ and…
We define a new class of generating function transformations related to polylogarithm functions, Dirichlet series, and Euler sums. These transformations are given by an infinite sum over the $j^{th}$ derivatives of a sequence generating…
The classical Lerch's formula states the following normalized product: $$\prod_{n=0}^\infty(x+n)=\frac{\sqrt{2\pi}}{\Gamma(x)},\quad \textrm{Re}(x)>0, $$ where $\Gamma(x)$ is the Euler gamma function. In this note, by using Barnes' multiple…
We generalize the derivation of the Wallis formula for $\pi$ from a variational computation of the spectrum of the Hydrogen atom. We obtain infinite product formulas for certain combinations of gamma functions, which include irrational…
In this work we consider a family of function classes constructed by means of the Gauss hypergeometric function $_2F_1(1,1;2;z) =-\frac{\log(1-z)}{z}$. We demonstrate that this family, in fact, constitutes classes of analytic functions…
Recently, the degenerate gamma functions are introduced as a degenerate version of the usual gamma function by Kim-Kim. In this paper, we investigate several properties of them. Namely, we obtain an analytic continuation as a meromorphic…
We consider the asymptotic behavior of the incomplete gamma functions gamma(-a,-z) and Gamma(-a,-z) as a goes to infinity. Uniform expansions are needed to describe the transition area z~a in which case error functions are used as main…
We derive integral representations in terms of the Macdonald functions for the square modulus $s\mapsto | \Gamma ( a + i s ) |^2$ of the Gamma function and its Fourier transform when $a<0$ and $a\not= -1,-2,\ldots $, generalizing known…
As is well-known, a generalization of the classical concept of the factorial $n!$ for a real number $x\in {\mathbb R}$ is the value of Euler's gamma function $\Gamma(1+x)$. In this connection, the notion of a binomial coefficient naturally…
We show how the formulas in paper Variae considerationes circa series hypergeometricas written by Euler imply the duplication formula for the Gamma-function. This paper can be seen as an Addendum to a previous paper by the author.
We present a theorem on taking the repeated indefinite summation of a holomorphic function $\phi(z)$ in a vertical strip of $\mathbb{C}$ satisfying exponential bounds as the imaginary part grows. We arrive at this result using transforms…
We use well-known limit theorems in probability theory to derive a Wallis-type product formula for the gamma function. Our result immediately provides a probabilistic proof of Wallis's product formula for $\pi$, as well as the duplication…
We provide a new algorithm for evaluating the gamma function at any (rational) point and a new infinite product representation free from the presence of Euler and Mascheroni constant.Formulae and inequalities seemingly new are obtained as…
We express the $q$-Pochhammer symbol $(z;q)_\infty$ as an infinite product of gamma functions, analogously to how Narukawa expressed the elliptic gamma function as an infinite product of hyperbolic gamma functions. This identity is used to…
