We prove several old and new theorems about finite sums involving characters and trigonometric functions. These sums can be traced back to theta function identities from Ramanujan's notebooks and were systematically first studied by Berndt…

A simple integration by parts and telescopic cancellation leads to a rigorous derivation of the first 2 terms for the error in Ramanujan's asymptotic series for the nth partial sum of the harmonic series. Then Kummer's transformation gives…

We prove three theorems on finite real multiple zeta values: the symmetric formula, the sum formula and the height-one duality theorem. These are analogues of their counterparts on finite multiple zeta values.
