Landmark Computation of the Incomplete Gamma Function

Ilir F. Progri · Journal of Geolocation Geo-information and Geo-intelligence · 2022

Use in connection with any form of information storage and retrieval, electronic adaptation, computer software or by similar or dissimilar methodology now known or hereafter developed is forbidden.The use of the publication of trade names, trademarks, service marks, or similar terms, even if they are not identified as such, is not to be taken as an expression of opinion as to whether they are subject to proprietary rights.The landmark i computation of the regularized ii incomplete gamma function (RIGF) provides a novel, innovative, new, and significantly improved understanding of the regularization of the IGF by means of new integral expressions and describes (or gives a very detailed account) on the scale of validity of the range of several already known closed form expressions of the computation of the RIGF.The lack of the convergence range on the computation of the IGF is the root cause of the computational issues that were described in the quantitative evaluation of the generalized Bessel function distribution of the first kind (GBFD1K).The landmark computation of the RIGF depicts that the landmark RIGF is in fact an integration of the exponential function with a more complicated exponent; therefore, the convergence of the power series expansion of the exponential function integration for negative exponents has directly impacted the computation of the RIGF.In order to compare (or collate and contrast) the computation of the RIGF with the available literature approaches we used three methods: analytical, graphical, and numerical (or computationally numerical via MATLAB simulations).As a result of this work, we provided a well-defined range of convergence for the closed form expressions of the computation of the RIGF in the literature and we have significantly improved the understanding of the computation of the RIGF.

Computation of the Incomplete Gamma Function Ratios

A. R. DiDonato, R. K. Hageman · 1976

Abstract : A method, made up of several algorithms, is given for computing the incomplete gamma function ratio, P(a, x) and its complement Q(a, x) for all real arguments a 0, x or = 0. The difficult case when a and x are large is treated by a modified version of Takenaga's method. The resulting computer program is efficient, yields both P and Q correctly to within 1 unit in the twelfth significant digit, or, at the user's option, to within one unit in the sixth or third significant digit. A FORTRAN listing of the program is included.

Inverse incomplete gamma function and its application

Mischa Döhler, Marylin Arndt · Electronics Letters · 2006

Communication systems with multiple antennas operating over non-ergodic fading channels are gauged by means of the outage probability against a given communication rate, the solution to which is often expressed in terms of the incomplete gamma function. Practical situations, however, often require the inverse process, i.e. the determination of an optimum rate against a desired outage probability. The contribution of this report is the application of an asymptotic expression that enables the inverse function to be expressed in closed form.

Monotonicity of the incomplete gamma function with applications

Zhen-Hang Yang, Wen Zhang, Yu‐Ming Chu · Journal of Inequalities and Applications · 2016

In the article, we discuss the monotonicity properties of the function $x\rightarrow (1-e^{-ax^{p}} )^{1/p}/\int_{0}^{x}e^{-t^{p}}\,dt$ for $a, p>0$ with $p\neq1$ on $(0, \infty)$ and prove that the double inequality $\Gamma(1+1/p) (1-e^{-a x^{p}} )^{1/p} <\int_{0}^{x}e^{-t^{p}}\,dt<\Gamma(1+1/p) (1-e^{-b x^{p}} )^{1/p}$ holds for all $x>0$ if and only if $a\leq\min\{1, \Gamma^{-p}(1+1/p)\}$ and $b\geq\max\{1, \Gamma^{-p}(1+1/p)\}$ .

Derangements and the $p$-adic incomplete gamma function

Andrew O’Desky, David Harry Richman · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2020

We introduce a $p$-adic analogue of the incomplete gamma function. We also introduce quantities ($m$-values) associated to a function on natural numbers and prove a new characterization of $p$-adic continuity for functions with $p$-integral $m$-values. Combinatorial interpretations for the integral values of the incomplete gamma function and functions with $m$-values zero or one are obtained, which show that these functions count derangements in generalized symmetric groups and permutations with restricted cycle lengths.

Monotonicity and inequalities involving the incomplete gamma function

Zhen-Hang Yang, Wen Zhang, Yu‐Ming Chu · Journal of Inequalities and Applications · 2016

In the article, we deal with the monotonicity of the function $x\rightarrow[ (x^{p}+a )^{1/p}-x]/I_{p}(x)$ on the interval $(0, \infty)$ for $p>1$ and $a>0$ , and present the necessary and sufficient condition such that the double inequality $[ (x^{p}+a )^{1/p}-x]/a< I_{p}(x)<[ (x^{p}+b )^{1/p}-x]/b$ for all $x>0$ and $p>1$ , where $I_{p}(x)=e^{x^{p}}\int_{x}^{\infty}e^{-t^{p}}\,dt$ is the incomplete gamma function.
