    Abstract

    In the paper, we establish an inequality involving the gamma and digamma
    functions and use it to prove the negativity and monotonicity of a function
    involving the gamma and digamma functions.

    Abstract

    In the paper, we first survey some results on inequalities for bounding
    harmonic numbers or Euler-Mascheroni constant, and then we establish a new
    sharp double inequality for bounding harmonic numbers as follows: For
    $n\in\mathbb{N}$, the double inequality
    -\frac{1}{12n^2+{2(7-12\gamma)}/{(2\gamma-1)}}\le H(n)-\ln
    n-\frac1{2n}-\gamma<-\frac{1}{12n^2+6/5} is valid, with equality in the
    left-hand side only when $n=1$, where the scalars
    $\frac{2(7-12\gamma)}{2\gamma-1}$ and $\frac65$ are the best possible.

    Abstract

    We elegantly refine a double inequality for the gamma function and improve
    some known results for bounding the gamma function.

  4. Two monotonic functions involving gamma function and volume of unit ball.

    Authors: Feng Qi, Bai-Ni Guo
    Subjects: Classical Analysis and ODEs
    Abstract

    In present paper, we prove the monotonicity of two functions involving the
    gamma function $\Gamma(x)$ and relating to the $n$-dimensional volume of the
    unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$.
