Woodson to “promote the study of Negro life and history”, and began even before Negro History Week (now Black History Month). Omega Psi Phi’s Achievement Week is observed in November of each year. In recognition of Achievement Week, the men of Psi Omega Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. formed a committee of brothers from the chapter to seek out and give due recognition to those individuals in the local community who have made a noteworthy contribution towards improving the quality of life for African Americans.

    MAIN.HTM 10/13/2006 06:42 PM +1. INTRODUCTION These are comments to "Additional Cyrillic Characters In Unicode: A Preliminary Proposal". I'm examining each section of that document, as well as adding some extra notes (marked "+" in titles). Below I use standard Russian Cyrillic characters; please be sure that you have appropriate fonts installed. If everything is OK, the following two lines must look similarly (encoding CP-1251): (sample Cyrillic letters) АабВЕеЗКкМНОопРрСсТуХхЧЬ (Latin letters and digits) Aa6BEe3KkMHOonPpCcTyXx4b 2. CYRILLIC LETTER RUMANIAN YN In the late Cyrillic semi-uncial Rumanian/Moldavian editions, the shape of YN was very similar to inverted PSI, see the following sample from the Ноул Тестамент (New Testament) of 1818, Neamt/Нямец, folio 542 v.: file:///Users/everson/Documents/Eudora%20Folder/Attachments%20Folder/Addons/MAIN.HTM Page 1 of 28 MAIN.HTM 10/13/2006 06:42 PM Here you can see YN and PSI in both upper- and lowercase forms. Note that the upper part of YN is not a sharp arrowhead, but something horizontally cut even with kind of serif (in the uppercase form). Thus, the shape of the letter in modern-style fonts (like Times or Arial) may look somewhat similar to Cyrillic "Л"/"л" with the central vertical stem looking like in lowercase "ф" drawn from the middle of upper horizontal line downwards, with regular serif at the bottom (horizontal, not slanted): Compare also with the proposed shape of PSI (Section 36). 3. CYRILLIC LETTER IOTIFIED A file:///Users/everson/Documents/Eudora%20Folder/Attachments%20Folder/Addons/MAIN.HTM Page 2 of 28 MAIN.HTM 10/13/2006 06:42 PM I support the idea that "IA" must be separated from "Я".

  • 1. INTRODUCTION the Gamma Γ and Psi Ψ (Or Digamma )Functions Are Defined As Γ(X)
    SOME GAMMA FUNCTION INEQUALITIES NECDET BATIR Abstract. In this paper we derive various new inequalities for the gamma function. Our results improve, refine and extend some previously known in- equalities. 1. INTRODUCTION The gamma Γ and psi ψ (or digamma )functions are defined as Z ∞ Γ0(x) Γ(x) = ux−1e−udu , ψ(x) = 0 Γ(x) for positive real numbers x, respectively. For basic properties of these functions refer to [7, Chapter I]. We call the derivatives ψ0, ψ00, ψ000, .... as polygamma functions. The gamma function play a key role in the proof of Stirling’s formula n! √ lim √ = 2π, n→∞ nne−n n see [10, Theorem 20], and has many applications in many fields of science such as special functions, number theory, statistics and physics. In particular, in the recent past many authors have studied these functions and they obtained many interesting inequalities for them, see([2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [8], [9], [12], [14], [15], [16], [17]). In this paper we aim at presenting several new inequalities for the gamma function. In what follows c = 1.462632144968362 ... denotes the only positive zero of ψ-function(see[1, p.259,(6.3.19)]. In order to prove our main results we need to present some lemmas. Lemma 1.1. We have Γ(x) √ lim = 2π. x→∞ exp ψ(x)eψ(x) − eψ(x) Proof. Using Stirling’s formula we get Γ(x) √ xxe−x lim = 2π lim √ . x→∞ exp(ψ(x)eψ(x) − eψ(x)) x→∞ x exp(ψ(x)eψ(x) − eψ(x)) In [9] the author of this paper proved that lim x − eψ(x) = 1/2.
