def multigammaln(a, d):
    """returns the log of multivariate gamma, also sometimes called the
    generalized gamma.

    Parameters
    ----------
    a : ndarray
        the multivariate gamma is computed for each item of a
    d : int
        the dimension of the space of integration.

    Returns
    -------
    res : ndarray
        the values of the log multivariate gamma at the given points a.

    Note
    ----
    The formal definition of the multivariate gamma of dimension d for a real a
    is :

    \Gamma_d(a) = \int_{A>0}{e^{-tr(A)\cdot{|A|}^{a - (m+1)/2}dA}}

    with the condition a > (d-1)/2, and A>0 being the set of all the positive
    definite matrices of dimension s. Note that a is a scalar: the integrand
    only is multivariate, the argument is not (the function is defined over a
    subset of the real set).

    This can be proven to be equal to the much friendler equation:

    \Gamma_d(a) = \pi^{d(d-1)/4}\prod_{i=1}^{d}{\Gamma(a - (i-1)/2)}.

    -----
