Pochhammer SymbolA.k.a. Rising Factorial. For an Integer ,

where is the Gamma Function and

The Notation conflicts with both that for q-Series and that for Gaussian Coefficients, so context usually serves to distinguish the three. Additional identities are

where is the Digamma Function. The Pochhammer symbol arises in series expansions of HypergeometricFunctions and Generalized Hypergeometric Functions.See also Factorial, Generalized Hypergeometric Function, Harmonic Logarithm, Hypergeometric Function References
