How to prove $\int_0^\infty J_\nu(x)^3dx\stackrel?=\frac{\Gamma(1/6)\ \Gamma(1/6+\nu/2)}{2^{5/3}\ 3^{1/2}\ \pi^{3/2}\ \Gamma(5/6+\nu/2)}$?
I am interested in finding a general formula for the following integral:
$$\int_0^\infty J_\nu(x)^3dx,\tag1$$
where $J_\nu(x)$ is the Bessel function of the first kind:
$$J_\nu(x)=\sum _{n=0}^\infty\...

How to define double factorial for non positive integers?
I studied double factorial which known for natural number
$$ n!!=n(n-2)!! , 1!!=0!!=1$$
So we have for $n\in N$
$$ (2n)!!=2^n n! , (2n+1)!!=\frac{(2n+1)!}{2^n n!}$$
but I found on Math-World formula ...

Prove known closed form for $\int_0^\infty e^{-x}I_0\left(\frac{x}{3}\right)^3\;dx$
I know that the following identity is correct, but I would love to see a derivation:
$$\int_0^\infty e^{-x}I_0\left(\frac{x}{3}\right)^3\;dx=\frac{\sqrt{6}}{32\pi^3}\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{24}\right)\...

Is it possible to find the $n$th derivative of Gamma function?
By repeatedly differentiating $\Gamma(x)$, I noticed that
$$\frac{d^{n}}{{dx}^{n}}\Gamma(x)=\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{n-1}{k}\psi^{(n-k-1)}(x)\,\frac{d^{k}}{{dx}^{k}}\Gamma(x),$$
where $\psi^{(a)}(x)$ is ...

Closed form for $\Gamma(a-x)$ where $a \in (0,1]$.
Now asked on MO here.
I wonder if there is a closed form for $ \Gamma(a-x)$.
And by closed form here I mean a finite combinations of elementary functions, powers of $\Gamma(a)$ and powers of $\Gamma(...

Find $\prod_{k=1}^n \frac{\Gamma (a_k/m)}{\Gamma (b_k/m)}$ algorithmically
It sometimes happens that
$$\prod_{k=1}^n \frac{\Gamma (a_k/m)}{\Gamma (b_k/m)}$$
is algebraic for positive integers $m,n,a_k,b_k$. For example,
$$\frac{\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{24}\right)\Gamma\left(\...

How to Evaluate $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^n(4n+1)(2n)!^3}{2^{6n}n!^6}$
I want to Evaluate
$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^n(4n+1)(2n)!^3}{2^{6n}n!^6}.$
I tried from arcsin(x) series and got $\frac{1-z^4}{(1+z^4)^{\frac{2}{3}}}= 1-5(\frac{1}{2})z^4+9(\frac{(1)(3)}{(2)(4)})...

Is it possible to find a closed form for $i!$? [duplicate]
I am curious is there a closed form for $i!$? I tried to search for any closed form for this but I didn't find any.
$$z! := \lim_{n \to \infty } n^z \prod_{k=1}^n \frac {k}{z+k}$$
$$i! =\lim_{n \to \...

On a log-gamma definite integral
A very famous log-gamma integral due to Raabe is
$$\int_0^1 \log \Gamma (x) \, dx = \frac{1}{2} \log (2\pi).$$
Several proofs of this result can be found here.
I would like to know about the ...

A closed form for integrals of the type $\Gamma\left(\sigma+it\right)$?
Numerical evidence strongly suggests that:
$$\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\Gamma\left(\sigma+it\right) \,\mathrm{d}t = 2\cdot\frac{\pi}{\mathrm{e}} \qquad \sigma \in \mathbb{R}, \sigma > 0$$
and
$$\int_{-...
