Generalized Pochhammer symbol - Alchetron, the free social encyclopedia

In mathematics, the generalized Pochhammer symbol of parameter α > 0 and partition κ = ( κ 1 , κ 2 , … , κ m ) generalizes the classical Pochhammer symbol, named after Leo August Pochhammer, and is defined as

( a ) κ ( α ) = ∏ i = 1 m ∏ j = 1 κ i ( a − i − 1 α + j − 1 ) .

It is used in multivariate analysis.
