Abstract: In the paper, we present a monotonicity result of a function involving the gamma function and the logarithmic function, refine a double inequality for the gamma function, and improve some known results for bounding the gamma function.

Review text

A double inequality obtained by \textit{P. Ivády} [J. Math. Inequal. 3, 227--236 (2009; Zbl 1179.26052)] is simplified and generalized. In order to perform refinements, two results are established in Section 2. Three lemmas, those are used to prove two results, are taken from \textit{G. D. Anderson, M. K. Vamanamurthy and M. Vuorinen} [Expo. Math. 7, 97--136 (1989; Zbl 0686.30015)]. Comparison of the second result (Theorem 2) with some known results are fairly studied, and the use of some mathematical softwares is visualized. An open problem and three conjectures are proposed in Section 5. The authors mention that the paper under review is a revised version of the reference [\textit{J.-L. Zhao, B.-N. Guo and F. Qi}, Publ. Math. 80, No. 3--4, 333--342 (2012; Zbl 1265.26026)] of the paper.
