We present a new asymptotic formula for the Stieltjes constants which is both simpler and more accurate than several others published in the literature (see e.g. \cite{Fekih-Ahmed}, \cite{Knessl Coffey}, \cite{Paris}). More importantly, it…

We present a large number of analytic evaluations of Euler sums, namely sums such as \begin{align} M(m,n_0,n_1,n_2, \ldots, n_t) &= \sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{H(k)^m}{k^{n_0} (k+1)^{n_1} (k+2)^{n_2} \cdots (k+t)^{n_t}}, \nonumber \end{align}…

We define a new class of generating function transformations related to polylogarithm functions, Dirichlet series, and Euler sums. These transformations are given by an infinite sum over the $j^{th}$ derivatives of a sequence generating…

In this paper we study sums of Dirichlet series whose coefficients are terms of the Thue-Morse sequence and variations thereof. We find closed-form expressions for such sums in terms of known constants and functions including the Riemann…

In this paper we derive rapidly converging series for Catalan's constant and for Ap\'ery's constant. The method may be easily generalised to produce new series representations for other values of the Riemann zeta function and the Dirichlet…

Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first give a brief survey of Ap\'ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain $L$-functions. Then, we establish two…

We apply the Euler--Maclaurin formula to find the asymptotic expansion of the sums $\sum_{k=1}^n (\log k)^p / k^q$, ~$\sum k^q (\log k)^p$, ~$\sum (\log k)^p /(n-k)^q$, ~$\sum 1/k^q (\log k)^p $ in closed form to arbitrary order ($p,q…

We introduce a new generalization of Stirling numbers of the second kind and analyze their properties, including generating functions, integral representations, and recurrence relations. These numbers are used to approximate Riemann zeta…

We employ some results about continued fraction expansions of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions to characterize the spectral data of generalized indefinite strings of Stieltjes type. In particular, this solves the corresponding inverse spectral…

We provide representations of Euler's constant $\gamma=0.577...$ as series which converge geometrically fast (but use coefficients whose computation induces a quadratic cost). The asymptotic oscillations of these coefficients are discussed.

We obtain several expansions for $\zeta(s)$ involving a sequence of polynomials in $s$, denoted in this paper by $\alpha_k(s)$. These polynomials can be regarded as a generalization of Stirling numbers of the first kind and our identities…

In this work we develop a theory of Stieltjes-analytic functions. We first define the Stieltjes monomials and polynomials and we study them exhaustively. Then, we introduce the Stieltjes analytic functions locally, as an infinite series of…

The higher Euler-Kronecker constants of a number field $K$ are the coefficients in the Laurent series expansion of the logarithmic derivative of the Dedekind zeta function about $s=1$. These coefficients are mysterious and seem to contain a…

Some new integrals involving the Stieltjes constants are developed in this paper.

The Riemann zeta identity at even integers of Lettington, along with his other Bernoulli and zeta relations, are generalized. Other corresponding recurrences and determinant relations are illustrated. Another consequence is the application…

We study the use of the Euler-Maclaurin formula to numerically evaluate the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$ for $s, a \in \mathbb{C}$, along with an arbitrary number of derivatives with respect to $s$, to arbitrary precision with…

Recently, A. I. Aptekarev and his collaborators found a sequence of rational approximations to Euler's constant $\gamma$ defined by a third-order homogeneous linear recurrence. In this paper, we give a new interpretation of Aptekarev's…

We give a continued-fraction characterization of Stieltjes moment sequences for which there exists a representing measure with support in $[\xi, \infty)$. The proof is elementary.

We show that the formula recently derived by Coffey for the Stieltjes constants in terms of the Bernoulli numbers is mathematically equivalent to the much earlier representation derived by Briggs and Chowla.

Building on the mapping relations between analytic functions and periodic functions using the abstract operators $\cos(h\partial_x)$ and $\sin(h\partial_x)$, and by defining the Zeta and related functions including the Hurwitz Zeta function…
