Gamma

Now check that the Γ function is differentiable, wherever this makes sense.

Rewrite the Gamma integral as an example of a Mellin transform.

HasDerivAt GammaIntegral (∫ (t : ℝ) in Set.Ioi 0, ↑t ^ (s - 1) * (↑(Real.log t) * ↑(Real.exp (-t)))) s

The derivative of the Γ integral, at any s ∈ ℂ with 1 < re s, is given by the Mellin transform of log t * exp (-t).

theorem Complex.continuousAt_Gamma (s : ℂ) (hs : ∀ (m : ℕ), s ≠ -↑m) :

At s = 0, the Gamma function has a simple pole with residue 1.
