INEQUALITIES ASSOCIATED WITH RATIOS OF GAMMA FUNCTIONS

Abstract

We use properties of the gamma function to estimate the products$\prod _{k=1}^{n}(4k-3)/4k$and$\prod _{k=1}^{n}(4k-1)/4k$, motivated by the work of Chen and Qi [‘Completely monotonic function associated with the gamma function and proof of Wallis’ inequality’,Tamkang J. Math.36(4) (2005), 303–307] and Morticiet al.[‘Completely monotonic functions and inequalities associated to some ratio of gamma function’,Appl. Math. Comput.240(2014), 168–174].
