Abstract: Let $Omeg{a}_n$ stand for the volume of the unit ball in $mathbb{R}^n$ for $ninmathbbN$. In the present paper, we prove that the sequence $Omeg{a}_n^{1/(nlnn)}$ is logarithmically convex and that the sequence $fracOmeg{a}_n^{1/(nlnn)}Omeg{a}_{n+1}^{1/[(n+1)ln(n+1)]}$ is strictly decreasing for $nge2$. In addition, some monotonic and concave properties of several functions relating to $Omeg{a}_n$ are extended and generalized.
