Let $p,p_1,\ldots,p_m$ be positive integers with $p_1\leq p_2\leq\cdots\leq p_m$ and $x\in [-1,1)$, define the so-called Euler type sums ${S_{{p_1}{p_2} \cdots {p_m},p}}\left( x \right)$, which are the infinite sums whose general term is a…

We introduce a new factorial function which agrees with the usual Euler gamma function at both the positive integers and at all half-integers, but which is also entire. We describe the basic features of this function.

A new family of polynomials, called cumulant polynomial sequence, and its extensions to the multivariate case is introduced relied on a purely symbolic combinatorial method. The coefficients of these polynomials are cumulants, but depending…

In this paper, we define a parametric variant of generalized Euler sums and call them the (alternating) parametric Euler $T$-sums. By using the contour integration method and residue theorem, we establish several explicit formulae for the…

Sequence transformations are valuable numerical tools that have been used with considerable success for the acceleration of convergence and the summation of diverging series. However, our understanding of their theoretical properties is far…

In this paper, we study some Euler-Ap\'ery-type series which involve central binomial coefficients and (generalized) harmonic numbers. In particular, we establish elegant explicit formulas of some series by iterated integrals and…

In this article, we derive, using Fourier series and multiple derivative of the function $\pi/\sin(\pi x)$, series representations for positive powers of $\pi$. We also show that the Euler-Wallis product can be easily obtained from the same…

We consider nested sums involving the Pochhammer symbol at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of $\pi,$ $\log(2)$ or zeta values. In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as…

We obtain for the Kempner series (i.e. harmonic series where certain digits are excluded from all denominators, for example the digit 9 in base 10) new representations as geometrically convergent series. The coefficients for these…

In connection with Eisenstein series for the principal congruence subgroup $\Gamma(n)$, Hecke introduced certain numbers, of which he said that they are rational and cumbersome to calculate. We show, however, that these numbers are…

This paper builds on the research initiated by Boyadzhiev, but introduces generalized harmonic numbers, \[ H_n(\alpha)= \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{\alpha^{k}}{k}, \] which enable the derivation of new identities as well as the reformulation of…

P. Flajolet and B. Salvy \cite{FS1998} prove the famous theorem that a nonlinear Euler sum $S_{i_1i_2\cdots i_r,q}$ reduces to a combination of sums of lower orders whenever the weight $i_1+i_2+\cdots+i_r+q$ and the order $r$ are of the…

The Euler-Maclaurin summation formula is generalized to a modified form by expanding the periodic Bernoulli polynomials as its Fourier series and taking cuts, which includes both the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula and the Poission…

One of the most interesting formulas for multiple zeta values is the sum formula proved by Granville and Zagier independently in 1990s. Many variations and generalizations of it have been found since then. In this paper, we will provide a…
