We study a special Dirichlet series studied before by Apostol and Matsuoka and specify its values at negative integers. These values are related to a certain convolution of Bernoulli numbers

In this paper we present a new mathematical conception based on a new method for ordering the integers. The method relies on the assumption that negative numbers are beyond infinity, which goes back to Wallis and Euler. We also present a…

We study three special Dirichlet series, two of them alternating, related to the Riemann zeta function. These series are shown to have extensions to the entire complex plane and we find their values at the negative integers (or residues at…

Euler gives a long introduction, giving all the arguments for and against the use of divergent series in calculus and then gives his own definition of the sum of a diverging series. Then in the second half of this paper he evaluates the the…

Using combinatorial techniques, we derive a recurrence identity that expresses an exponential power sum with negative powers in terms of another exponential power sum with positive powers. Consequently, we derive a formula for the power sum…

We establish a new identity linking Bernoulli, Stirling (first kind), and Bessel (first kind) numbers: \[ \sum_{k=0}^{n} 2^{\,n-k}\,s(n,k)\,B_k \;=\; \sum_{k=0}^{n} b(n,k)\,\frac{(-1)^k\,k!}{k+1}. \] This parallels the classical…

Let $\{a_{1}, a_{2},\ldots, a_{n},\ldots\}$ be a sequence of complex numbers which has at most polynomial growth and satisfies an extra assumption. In this paper, inspired by a recent work of Sasane, we give an explanation of the sum…

The most simple and famous divergent power series coming from ODE may be the so-called Euler series $\sum_{n\ge 0}(-1)^n\,n!\,x^{n+1}$, that, as well as all its positive powers, is Borel-summable in any direction excepted the negative real…

Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $a$ be a rational p-adic integer with $a\not\equiv 0\pmod p$. In this paper we establish congruences for $$\sum_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\frac{\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k}k, \quad\sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}k\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k…
