1: 5.15 Polygamma Functions
§5.15 Polygamma Functions
The functions ψ ( n ) ( z ) , n = 1 , 2 , , are called the polygamma functions. In particular, ψ ( z ) is the trigamma function; ψ ′′ , ψ ( 3 ) , ψ ( 4 ) are the tetra-, penta-, and hexagamma functions respectively. …

3: 5.21 Methods of Computation
For the left half-plane we can continue the backward recurrence or make use of the reflection formula (5.5.3). Similarly for ln Γ ( z ) , ψ ( z ) , and the polygamma functions. …
