Explicit determinations of several classes of trigonometric sums are given. These sums can be viewed as analogues or generalizations of Gauss sums. In a previous paper, two of the present authors considered primarily sine sums associated…

We prove new exact formulas for the generalized sum-of-divisors functions, $\sigma_{\alpha}(x) := \sum_{d|x} d^{\alpha}$. The formulas for $\sigma_{\alpha}(x)$ when $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$ is fixed and $x \geq 1$ involves a finite sum over…
We derive two new analogues of a transformation formula of Ramanujan involving the Gamma and Riemann zeta functions present in the Lost Notebook. Both involve infinite series consisting of Hurwitz zeta functions and yield modular relations.…

We shall show that the sum of the series formed by the so-called hyperharmonic numbers can be expressed in terms of the Riemann zeta function. More exactly, we give summation formula for the general hyperharmonic series.
We show that the absolute convergence of a Ramanujan expansion does not guarantee the convergence of its real variable generalization, which is obtained by replacing the integer argument in the Ramanujan sums with a real number. We also…
