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.
By means of the derivative operator and Whipple-type $_3F_2$-series identities, two families of summation formulae involving generalized harmonic numbers are established.

We demonstrate $k+1$-term arithmetic progressions in certain subsets of the real line whose "higher-order Fourier dimension" is sufficiently close to 1. This Fourier dimension, introduced in previous work, is a higher-order (in the sense of…

Let $(u(n))_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ be an arithmetic progression of natural integers in base $b\in\mathbb{N}\setminus \{0,1\}$. We consider the following sequences: $s(n)=\overline{u(0)u(1)\cdots u(n) }^b$ formed by concatenating the first $n+1$…
The divergence of the harmonic series is proved by direct comparison with a series whose nth partial sum telescopes to the natural logarithm of n. The key idea is to apply the classical inequality x>=log(1+x) (valid for x>-1) with x=1/k and…
We establish asymptotic formulas for sums of reciprocals of primes in arithmetic progressions, generalizing recent results on multiple Mertens evaluations by Tenenbaum, Qi, and Hu. Specifically, for any fixed constant $K>0$, we derive…
Recently, Kargin et al. (arXiv:2008.00284 [math.NT]) obtained (among many other things) the following formula for the hyper-sums of powers of integers $S_k^{(m)}(n)$ \begin{equation*} S_k^{(m)}(n) = \frac{1}{m!} \sum_{i=0}^{m} (-1)^i…
Let $p$ be a prime and ${\mathcal{P}_{p}}$ the set of positive integers which are prime to $p$. We establish the following interesting congruence \[\sum\limits_{\begin{smallmatrix} i+j+k={{p}^{r}} i,j,k\in {\mathcal{P}_{p}}…
