Algorithms for the numerical evaluation of the incomplete gamma function ratios $P(a,x)=\gamma(a,x)/\Gamma(a)$ and $Q(a,x)=\Gamma(a,x)/\Gamma(a)$ are described for positive values of $a$ and $x$. Also, inversion methods are given for…
A new uniform asymptotic expansion for the incomplete gamma function $\Gamma(a,z)$ valid for large values of $z$ was given by the author in {\it J. Comput. Appl. Math.} {\bf 148} (2002) 323--339. This expansion contains a complementary…
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…
Various approaches to the numerical representation of the Incomplete Gamma Function F_m(z) for complex arguments z and small integer indexes m are compared with respect to numerical fitness (accuracy and speed). We consider power series,…
We discuss the best methods available for computing the gamma function $\Gamma(z)$ in arbitrary-precision arithmetic with rigorous error bounds. We address different cases: rational, algebraic, real or complex arguments; large or small…
In this paper the incomplete gamma function $\gamma(\alpha,x)$ and its derivative is considered for negative values of $\alpha $ and the incomplete gamma type function $\gamma_*(\alpha,x_-)$ is introduced. Further the polygamma functions…
Using a variational approach, two new series representations for the incomplete Gamma function are derived: the first is an asymptotic series, which contains and improves over the standard asymptotic expansion; the second is a uniformly…
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 expansion of Kummer's hypergeometric function as a series of incomplete Gamma functions is discussed, for real values of the parameters and of the variable. The error performed approximating the Kummer function with a finite sum of…
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…
Lower and upper bounds $B_a(x)$ on the incomplete gamma function $\Gamma(a,x)$ are given for all real $a$ and all real $x>0$. These bounds $B_a(x)$ are exact in the sense that $B_a(x)\underset{x\downarrow0}\sim\Gamma(a,x)$ and…
An efficient algorithm and a Fortran 90 module (LaguerrePol) for computing Laguerre polynomials $L^{(\alpha)}_n(z)$ are presented. The standard three-term recurrence relation satisfied by the polynomials and different types of asymptotic…
We construct asymptotic expansions for the normalised incomplete gamma function $Q(a,z)=\Gamma(a,z)/\Gamma(a)$ that are valid in the transition regions, including the case $z\approx a$, and have simple polynomial coefficients. For Bessel…
In this article we derive, using the Lagrange inversion theorem and applying twice the Fa\`a di Bruno formula, an expression of the minimum of the Gamma function $\Gamma$ as an expansion in powers of the Euler-Mascheroni constant $\gamma$.…
We introduce an algorithm to compute the functions belonging to a suitable set ${\mathscr F}$ defined as follows: $f\in {\mathscr F}$ means that $f(s,x)$, $s\in A\subset {\mathbb R}$ being fixed and $x>0$, has a power series expansion…
A Fortran 90 module (GammaCHI) for computing and inverting the gamma and chi-square cumulative distribution functions (central and noncentral) is presented. The main novelty of this package are the reliable and accurate inversion routines…
In this paper we describe an algorithm and a Fortran 90 module ({\bf Conical}) for the computation of the conical function $P^m_{-\tfrac12+i\tau}(x)$ for $x>-1$, $m \ge 0$, $\tau >0$. These functions appear in the solution of Dirichlet…
Let $\gamma$ denote imaginary parts of complex zeros of the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta(s)$. Certain sums over the $\gamma$'s are evaluated, by using the function $G(s) = \sum_{\gamma>0}\gamma^{-s}$ and other techniques. Some integrals…
We revisit a representation for the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ expressed in terms of normalised incomplete gamma functions given by the author and S. Cang in Methods Appl. Anal. {\bf 4} (1997) 449--470. Use of the uniform asymptotics…
We derive product and series representations of the gamma function using Newton interpolation series. Using these identities, a new formula for the coefficients in the Taylor series of the reciprocal gamma function is found. We also find…
