In recent three--loop calculations of massive Feynman integrals within Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and, e.g., in recent combinatorial problems the so-called generalized harmonic sums (in short $S$-sums) arise. They are characterized by…
Direct links between generalized harmonic numbers, linear Euler sums and Tornheim double series are established in a more perspicuous manner than is found in existing literature. We show that every linear Euler sum can be decomposed into a…
We define the generalized-Euler-constant function $\gamma(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} z^{n-1} (\frac{1}{n}-\log \frac{n+1}{n})$ when $|z|\leq 1$. Its values include both Euler's constant $\gamma=\gamma(1)$ and the "alternating Euler constant"…

During 2022--2023 Z.-W. Sun posed many conjectures on infinite series with summands involving generalized harmonic numbers. Motivated by this, we deduce $58$ series identities involving harmonic numbers, eight of which were previously…

The explicit formulas expressing harmonic sums via alternating Euler sums (colored multiple zeta values) are given, and some explicit evaluations are given as applications.
We study several variants of Euler sums by using the methods of contour integration and residue theorem. These variants exhibit nice properties such as closed forms, reduction, etc., like classical Euler sums. In addition, we also define a…
Let $H_n^{(2)}$ denote the second-order harmonic number $\sum_{0<k\le n}1/k^2$ for $n=0,1,2,\ldots$. In this paper we obtain the following identity: $$\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{2^kH_{k-1}^{(2)}}{k\binom{2k}k}=\frac{\pi^3}{48}.$$ We explain how…
We express some general type of infinite series such as $$ \sum^\infty_{n=1}\frac{F(H_n^{(m)}(z),H_n^{(2m)}(z),\ldots,H_n^{(\ell m)}(z))} {(n+z)^{s_1}(n+1+z)^{s_2}\cdots (n+k-1+z)^{s_k}}, $$ where $F(x_1,\ldots,x_\ell)\in\mathbb…
In this paper we collect over 150 new series identities (involving binomial coefficients) conjectured by the author in 2026. The values involved are related to $\pi$ or Riemann's zeta function or Dirichlet's $L$-function. For example, we…
The hyperharmonic numbers h_{n}^{(r)} are defined by means of the classical harmonic numbers. We show that the Euler-type sums with hyperharmonic numbers: {\sigma}(r,m)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}((h_{n}^{(r)})/(n^{m})) can be expressed in terms of…
Let $T$ be the triangle with vertices (1,0), (0,1), (1,1). We study certain integrals over $T$, one of which was computed by Euler. We give expressions for them both as a linear combination of multiple zeta values, and as a polynomial in…
For integers $n,k \geq 1$, let $S_k(n)$ denote the power sum $1^k +2^k + \cdots + n^k$. In this note, we first recall the minimal recurrence relation connecting $S_k(n)$ and $S_{k-1}(n)$ established by Abramovich (1973). We then discuss an…
