The Gamma function and its n th logarithmic derivatives (that is, the polygamma or the psi‐functions) have found many interesting and useful applications in a variety of subjects in pure and applied mathematics. Here we mainly apply these functions to treat convolutions of the Rayleigh functions by recalling a general identity expressing a certain class of series as psi‐functions and to evaluate a class of log‐sine integrals in an algorithmic way. We also evaluate some Euler sums and give much simpler psi‐function expressions for some known parameterized multiple sums (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
