Trigamma function

Summary

The trigamma function ψ1\psi_1 is the derivative of the digamma function, the second derivative of log⁡Γ\log \Gamma. It is the polygamma function of order 11 and equals ∑k≥0(z+k)−2\sum_{k \ge 0} (z+k)^{-2}. It is positive on the positive real axis, which expresses the log-convexity of the gamma function.
