We generalize techniques of Addison to a vastly larger context. We obtain integral representations in terms of the first periodic Bernoulli polynomial for a number of important special functions including the Lerch zeta, polylogarithm,…
Using a different approach, we derive integral representations for the Riemann zeta function and its generalizations (the Hurwitz zeta, $\zeta(-k,b)$, the polylogarithm, $\mathrm{Li}_{-k}(e^m)$, and the Lerch transcendent,…
We offer some comments on series involving the M$\ddot{o}$bius function which approximate sums over primes. To accomplish this, we utilize the derivative of the Gram series by applying Riemann-Stieltjes integration. We offer a new formula…

In this paper, we establish the following two identities involving the Gamma function and Bernoulli polynomials, namely $$ \sum_{k\leq x}\frac{1}{k^s} \sum_{j=1}^{k^s}\log\Gamma\left(\frac{j}{k^s}\right) \sum_{\substack{d|k \\…
We prove a monotonicity property of the Hurwitz zeta function which, in turn, translates into a chain of inequalities for polygamma functions of different orders. We provide a probabilistic interpretation of our result by exploiting a…
We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…
The Watson-Harkins sum involving the product of the cosine and cosecant functions is extended to derive the finite sum of generalized Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta functions is derived in terms of the Hurwitz-Lerch Zeta function. A transformation…
In this note we prove that for all $a \in \mathbb{N}$, $x \in \mathbb{R}_+ \cup \{0\}$, and $s \in \mathbb{C}$ with $\Re(s) > a + 2$, the (alternating) weighted series of the Hurwitz zeta function, $$ \sum_{k \geq 1} (\pm 1)^k (k +…
In this article, we aim to extend the research conducted by Chatterjee and Garg in 2024, particularly focusing on the $q$-analogue of the generalized Stieltjes constants. These constants constitute the coefficients in the Laurent series…
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 show that integrals involving log-tangent function, with respect to certain square-integrable functions on $(0, \pi/2)$, can be evaluated by some series involving the harmonic number. Then we use this result to establish many closed…
Let $x$ be a complex number which has a positive real part, and $w_1,\ldots,w_N$ be positive rational numbers. We show that $w^s \zeta_N (s, x \ |\ w_1,\ldots, w_N)$ can be expressed as a finite linear combination of the Hurwitz zeta…
