The area of the blue region converges on the Euler–Mascheroni constant, which is the 0th Stieltjes constant. In mathematics , the Stieltjes constants are the numbers γ k {\displaystyle \gamma _{k}} that occur in the Laurent series expansion of the Riemann zeta function :
The notation γ appears nowhere in the writings of either Euler or Mascheroni, and was chosen at a later time, perhaps because of the constant's connection to the gamma function. [3] For example, the German mathematician Carl Anton Bretschneider used the notation γ in 1835, [ 4 ] and Augustus De Morgan used it in a textbook published in parts ...
The harmonic number with = ⌊ ⌋ (red line) with its asymptotic limit + (blue line) where is the Euler–Mascheroni constant.. In mathematics, the n-th harmonic number is the sum of the reciprocals of the first n natural numbers: [1] = + + + + = =.
γ is Euler–Mascheroni constant; τ = x + iy with y > 0. = / (), with q = e 2π i τ is the Dedekind eta function. So the Eisenstein series has a pole at s = 1 of residue π, and the (first) Kronecker limit formula gives the constant term of the Laurent series at this pole.
Euler's product formula for the gamma function, combined with the functional equation and an identity for the Euler–Mascheroni constant, yields the following expression for the digamma function, valid in the complex plane outside the negative integers (Abramowitz and Stegun 6.3.16): [1]
The standard Gumbel distribution is the case where = and = with cumulative distribution function = ()and probability density function = (+).In this case the mode is 0, the median is ( ()), the mean is (the Euler–Mascheroni constant), and the standard deviation is /
A mathematical constant is a key number whose value is fixed by an unambiguous definition, often referred to by a symbol (e.g., an alphabet letter), or by mathematicians' names to facilitate using it across multiple mathematical problems. [1]
where d represents the divisor function, and γ represents the Euler-Mascheroni constant. In 1898, Charles Jean de la Vallée-Poussin proved that if a large number n is divided by all the primes up to n, then the average fraction by which the quotient falls short of the next whole number is γ:
