Abstract

In this paper we consider transformation formulas for B(z,s:χ)=m=1n=0χ(m)χ(2n+1)(2n+1)s1eπim(2n+1)z/k. B\left( z,s:\chi\right) =\sum\limits_{m=1}^{\infty}\sum\limits_{n=0} ^{\infty}\chi(m)\chi(2n+1)\left( 2n+1\right) ^{s-1}e^{\pi im(2n+1)z/k}. We derive reciprocity theorems for the sums arising in these transformation formulas and investigate certain properties of them. With the help of the character analogues of the Euler--Maclaurin summation formula we establish integral representations for the Hardy-Berndt character sums s3,p(d,c:χ)s_{3,p}\left( d,c:\chi\right) and s4,p(d,c:χ)s_{4,p}\left( d,c:\chi\right) .
