Simplifying the expression involving instances of Gamma function

Is it possible to simplify the following expression involving instances of Gamma function:

$$E(p)=\frac{\frac{\Gamma(\frac{p+1}{2})}{\Gamma(\frac{p+2}{2})}} {\left(\frac{\Gamma(\frac{p+1}{p})^2}{\Gamma(\frac{p+2}{p})}\right)^{\frac{p+2}{2}}}$$

where $p$ is rational (or even real) and $p\geq2$. The bottom part of expression $E$ comes from the formula for the area of a superellipse, i.e., supercircle:

$$\mid x\mid ^p + \mid y \mid ^p =r^p,\ p\geq 2$$

and the rest is related to that also. Thanx in advance.

Either I'm missing the easy things, or David is missing the different denominators. Can you say more David? Gerhard "Ask Me About System Design" Paseman, 2011.12.05 – Gerhard Paseman Dec 6 '11 at 1:36
Duh, stupid me. Of course... – David Roberts Dec 6 '11 at 6:07
So I imagine it can't be made much simpler. I also tried using MatLab simplify command, but it didn't give any revolutionary results.. Thank you. – Dragisa Zunic Dec 9 '11 at 8:24

First the denominator: Notice that $$\frac{\Gamma\left(1+\frac{1}{p}\right)^{2}}{\Gamma\left(1+\frac{2}{p}\right)}=\binom{\frac{2}{p}}{\frac{1}{p}}^{-1}=\frac{1}{2p}\frac{\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{p}\right)^{2}}{\Gamma\left(\frac{2}{p}\right)}.$$ For the numerator $$\frac{\Gamma\left(\frac{p+1}{2}\right)}{\Gamma\left(\frac{p+2}{2}\right)}=\frac{\Gamma\left(\frac{p+1}{2}\right)^{2}}{\Gamma\left(\frac{p+1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\right)\Gamma\left(\frac{p+1}{2}\right)}=\frac{\Gamma\left(\frac{p+1}{2}\right)^{2}}{\sqrt{\pi}2^{-p}\Gamma\left(p+1\right)}=\frac{2^{p}}{p\sqrt{\pi}}\binom{p-1}{\frac{p-1}{2}}^{-1}$$ so the fraction becomes $$\frac{2^{p}}{p\sqrt{\pi}}\binom{\frac{2}{p}}{\frac{1}{p}}^{\frac{p+2}{2}}\biggr/\binom{p-1}{\frac{p-1}{2}}.$$ You could also write it using the beta function, then it is $$\frac{2^{\frac{3p+2}{2}}p^{\frac{p+2}{2}}}{\sqrt{\pi}}\frac{\text{B}\left(\frac{1}{p},\frac{1}{p}\right)^{\frac{p+2}{2}}}{\text{B}\left(\frac{p+1}{2},\frac{p+1}{2}\right)}.$$ To clean it up, it feels like you need a nicer way to write $\Gamma\left(\frac{1}{p}\right)^{p}$. It seems to look like a multinomial coefficient.
The only parts of this that can be simplified at all are $\Gamma \left( {\frac {p+1}{p}} \right) ={\frac {\Gamma \left( \frac{1}{p} \right) }{p}}$, and similarly for $\Gamma\left(\frac{p+2}{p}\right)$ and $\Gamma\left(\frac{p+2}{2}\right)$
