Approximations of the generalized-Euler-constant function and the generalized Somos’ quadratic recurrence constant

Abstract In this paper, we provide an estimate for approximating the generalized-Euler-constant function γ(z)=∑k=1∞zk−1(1k−lnk+1k) $\gamma (z)=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty }z ^{k-1} (\frac{1}{k}-\ln \frac{k+1}{k} )$ by its partial sum γN−1(z) $\gamma _{N-1}(z)$ when 0<z<1 $0< z<1$. We obtain an as...

description Abstract In this paper, we provide an estimate for approximating the generalized-Euler-constant function γ(z)=∑k=1∞zk−1(1k−lnk+1k) $\gamma (z)=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty }z ^{k-1} (\frac{1}{k}-\ln \frac{k+1}{k} )$ by its partial sum γN−1(z) $\gamma _{N-1}(z)$ when 0<z<1 $0< z<1$. We obtain an asymptotic expansion for the generalized-Euler-constant function and show that the coefficients of the asymptotic expansion are explicitly expressed by the Eulerian fractions. Also, we find a recurrence relation for those coefficients. Using its relation with the generalized-Euler-constant function, we establish two inequalities for the generalized Somos’ quadratic recurrence constant. Moreover, two asymptotic expansions for the natural logarithm of the generalized Somos quadratic recurrence constant are presented.
