Polygamma function

In mathematics, the polygamma function of order m is a meromorphic function on the complex numbers ℂ defined as the (m + 1)th derivative of the logarithm of the gamma function: Thus holds where ψ(z) is the digamma function and Γ(z) is the gamma function. They are holomorphic on ℂ \ −ℕ0. At all the nonpositive integers these polygamma functions have a pole of order m + 1. The function ψ(1)(z) is sometimes called the trigamma function.
