LogGamma

  • LogGamma[ z ] gives the logarithm of the gamma function .
  • Mathematical function (see Section A.3.10).
  • Unlike Log[Gamma[ z ]], LogGamma[ z ] is analytic throughout the complex z plane, except for a branch cut discontinuity along the negative real axis.
  • See the Mathematica book: Section 3.2.10.
