The polygamma function of order $m$, $\psi^{(m)}(z)$, is defined by the formula $$\psi^{(m)}(z) = \dfrac{d^m}{dz^m} \log \Gamma(z),$$ where $\log$ denotes the logarithm and $\log \Gamma$ denotes the loggamma function. The digamma function $\psi$ is the function $\psi^{(0)}(z)$ and the trigamma function is $\psi^{(1)}(z)$.
Domain coloring of $\psi^{(0)}(z)$.
Domain coloring of $\psi^{(1)}(z)$.
