The n-th partial sums of the following series are true for each positive integer n.
-
(I)
(II)
The notations
and
in (I) and (II) represent the special values of a new generic formula that we define it as an extensive notation from Hurwitz zeta function [1*] for n-th partial sum as follows
,
where s and a are complex variables with Re(s) > 1 and Re(a) > 0.
When n tends to infinity, the extensive notation [2*] is then expressed as
.
Special Case
- n = ∞:
In the limit as n approaches to infinity, both series (I) and (II) converge and its values are
, where
is Apéry's constant.
.
Example
- If we put n = 2, both sides of (II) are equal to 29/31752, namely
.

[2*] The purpose of our website is to show a beauty of series. We introduce a new extension of the notation of Hurwitz zeta function for n-th partial sum because there exist such series (I) and (II). We share our results on the internet. The acceptance of this notation is the work of other men.
