A conjecture is given that, if true, could lead to an algorithm for computing definite sums of rational functions.
Based on new explicit estimates for the prime counting function, we improve the currently known estimates for the particular sequence $C_n = np_n - \sum_{k \leq n}p_k$, $n \geq 1$, involving the prime numbers.
For a positive integer $m$ and a subgroup $\Lambda$ of the unit group $(\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times$, the corresponding generalized Kloosterman sum is the function $K(a,b,m,\Lambda) = \sum_{u \in \Lambda}e(\frac{au + bu^{-1}}{m})$.…
We examine convergent representations for the sum of Bessel functions \[\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{J_\mu(na) J_\nu(nb)}{n^{\alpha}}\] for $\mu$, $\nu\geq0$ and positive values of $a$ and $b$. Such representations enable easy computation of the…
The main result is a generalization of Keller's recursion equation for finding a prime number given the previous primes. We also examine the convergence of the limit in Keller's equation and the convergence of the limit in the general…
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.
In this article, we explore a series of elementary yet insightful results involving integrals related to Gaussian sums. Using techniques rooted in classical calculus, we derive several identities and evaluate nontrivial definite integrals…
We study generalized sums of linear orders. These are binary operations that, given linear orders $A$ and $B$, return an order $A \oplus B$ that can be decomposed as an isomorphic copy of $A$ interleaved with a copy of $B$. We show that…
We consider complete convergence and closely related Hsu-Robbins-Erdos-Spitzer-Baum-Katz series for sums whose terms are elements of a linear 2-nd order autoregressive sequences of random variables and prove sufficient conditions for the…
We investigate the approximation for computing the sum $a_1+...+a_n$ with an input of a list of nonnegative elements $a_1,..., a_n$. If all elements are in the range $[0,1]$, there is a randomized algorithm that can compute an…
Computers are good at evaluating finite sums in closed form, but there are finite sums which do not have closed forms. Summands which do not produce a closed form can often be ``fixed'' by multiplying them by a suitable polynomial. We…
Recent results about sums of cubes of Fibonacci numbers [Frontczak, 2018] are extended to arbitrary powers.
In the paper we study a special parameter containing algebraic inequality involving sum of reciprocals and product of positive real numbers whose sum is 1. We determine the best values of the parameter using a new optimization argument. In…
We define reflective numbers and their iterative summations. We provide classification of reflective numbers based on their iterative cyclical limits.
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…
A summation is a shift-invariant ${\rm R}$-module homomorphism from a submodule of ${\rm R}[[\sigma]]$ to ${\rm R}$ or another ring. [11] formalized a method for extending a summation to a larger domain by telescoping. In this paper, we…
The aim of this note is to provide a simple proof of some well-known identities and recurrences relating classical Bernoulli and Euler numbers by using the Abel sum of the divergent series $\sum_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^{n} (n+1)^k$, $k$ a…
We present a new model-based approach for testing systems that use sequences of actions and assertions as test vectors. Our solution includes a method for quantifying testing quality, a tool for generating high-quality test suites based on…
We discuss the summation of certain series defined by counting blocks of digits in the $B$-ary expansion of an integer. For example, if $s_2(n)$ denotes the sum of the base-2 digits of $n$, we show that $\sum_{n \geq 1} s_2(n)/(2n(2n+1)) =…
We prove a Tauberian theorem for the Voronoi summation method of divergent series with an estimate of the remainder term. The results on the Voronoi summability are then applied to analyze the mean values of multiplicative functions on…
