2 Definitions As usual, we denote the floor of by the fractional part of by {} Definition (Pochhammer symbol)[] We define the Pochhammer symbol (or rising factorial function) () by () := ()()(3) ( ) = Γ(), Γ() where Γ() is the gamma function defined by Γ() := 0 e t t dt Definition (Stirling numbers of the first ind)[] Let,l N 0 be two non-negative integers such that l 0 We define the Stirling numbers of the first ind S () (l) as the connecting coefficients in the identity where () is the rising factorial function () = ( ) ( ) l S () (l)l, l=0 Definition 3 (Bernoulli numbers)[] We define the -th Bernoulli number B as the -th coefficient in the generating function relation e = B! C with < π Definition 4 (Euler numbers)[3] We define the sequence of Euler numbers {E } by the generating function identity e e = E! Definition 5 (Bernoulli polynomials)[, 3] We define for n N 0 the n-th Bernoulli polynomial B n () via the following eponential generating function as te t e t = n=0 B n () t n t C with t < π n! Using this epression, we see that the value of the n-th Bernoulli polynomial B n () at the point = 0 is B n (0) = B n, which is the n-th Bernoulli number
3 Definition 6 (Euler polynomials)[3] We define for n N 0 the n-th Euler polynomial E n () via the following eponential generating function as Moreover, we have that [4] e t e t = n=0 E n () t n n! E n (0) = ( n ) B n n n N 0 3 Etended Summation Formulas involving Stirling Series In this section we will prove our summation formulas for various finite sums of the form f() For this, we need the following Lemma 7 (Etended Euler-Maclaurin summation formula)[3, 5] Let f be an analytic function Then for all R, we have that f() = f(t)dt ( )m m! m ( ) B ({})! B m ({t})f (m) (t)dt, f ( ) () m B! f( ) () where B m () is the m-th Bernoulli polynomial {} denotes the fractional part of Therefore, for many functions f we have the asymptotic epansion f() for some constant C C f(t)dtc ( ) B ({})! Lemma 8 (Etended Boole summation formula)[3] Let f be an analytic function Then for all R, we have that ( ) f() = ( ) {} ( )m m! m ( ) E ({})! f () () ( ) t {t} E m ({t})f (m) (t)dt, 3 f ( ) () as, m ( )B f () () ( )!
4 where E m () is the m-th Euler polynomial {} denotes the fractional part of Therefore, for many functions f we have the asymptotic epansion ( ) f() C ( ) {} ( ) E ({})! f () () as, for some constant C C From the above lemma we get by setting := n N the following Corollary 9 (Boole Summation Formula)[3] Let f be an analytic function Then for all n N, we have n m ( ) f() = ( ) n ( ) ( )B f () (n) ( )! ( )m m! the following asymptotic epansion ( ) t {t} E m ({t})f (m) (t)dt, m ( )B f () () ( )! n ( ) f() C ( ) n ( ) ( )B f () (n) as n, ( )! for some constant C C As well as the net ey result found by J Weniger: Lemma 0 (Generalized Weniger transformation)[] For every inverse power series a (), where a () is any function in, the following transformation formula holds a () = ( ) () = Now, we prove as an eample the following ( ) l S () (l)a l() l= ( ) l= ( )l S () (l)a l() ()() () Theorem (Etended summation formulas for the harmonic series) = log()γ B ({}) ( ) l ( ) l= l S() (l)b l({}) ()() () 4
