WHAT DOES GAMMA FUNCTION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

gamma function

Gamma function

In mathematics, the gamma function is an extension of the factorial function, with its argument shifted down by 1, to real and complex numbers. That is, if n is a positive integer: The gamma function is defined for all complex numbers except the negative integers and zero. For complex numbers with a positive real part, it is defined via a convergent improper integral: This integral function is extended by analytic continuation to all complex numbers except the non-positive integers, yielding the meromorphic function we call the gamma function. The gamma function is a component in various probability-distribution functions, and as such it is applicable in the fields of probability and statistics, as well as combinatorics.

Definition of gamma function in the English dictionary

The definition of gamma function in the dictionary is a function defined by Γ = ʃ0∞ tx1e–d t, where x is real and greater than zero.
