A procedure for generating infinite series identities makes use of the generalized method of exhaustion by analytically evaluating the inner series of the resulting double summation. Identities are generated involving both elementary and special functions. Infinite sums of special functions include those of the gamma and polygamma functions, the Hurwitz Zeta function, the polygamma function, the Gauss hypergeometric function, and the Lerch transcendent. The procedure can be automated withMathematica(or equivalent software).

In recent years, much attention has been paid to the role of degenerate versions of special functions and polynomials in mathematical physics and engineering. In the present paper, we introduce a degenerate Euler zeta function, a degenerate digamma function, and a degenerate polygamma function. We present several properties, recurrence relations, infinite series, and integral representations for these functions. Furthermore, we establish identities involving hypergeometric functions in terms of degenerate digamma function.

In this paper, we reconsider the large- a asymptotic expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function ζ ( s , a ). New representations for the remainder term of the asymptotic expansion are found and used to obtain sharp and realistic error bounds. Applications to the asymptotic expansions of the polygamma functions, the gamma function, the Barnes G -function and the s -derivative of the Hurwitz zeta function ζ ( s , a ) are provided. A detailed discussion on the sharpness of our error bounds is also given.

We obtain a new proof of Hurwitz’s formula for the Hurwitz zeta function [Formula: see text] beginning with Hermite’s formula. The aim is to reveal a nice connection between [Formula: see text] and a special case of the Lommel function [Formula: see text]. This connection is used to rephrase a modular-type transformation involving infinite series of Hurwitz zeta function in terms of those involving Lommel functions.

The Stieltjes constants have been of interest for over a century, yet their detailed behaviour remains under investigation. These constants appear in the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function about . We obtain novel single and double summatory relations for , including single summation relations for and , where a and b are real and p and q are positive integers. In addition, we obtain new integration formulae for the Hurwitz zeta function and a new expression for the Stieltjes constants . Portions of the presentation show an intertwining of the theory of the hypergeometric function with that of the Hurwitz zeta function.

In this manuscript, the authors derive closed formula for definite integrals of combinations of powers and logarithmic functions of complicated arguments and express these integrals in terms of the Hurwitz zeta functions. These derivations are then expressed in terms of fundamental constants, elementary, and special functions. A summary of the results is produced in the form of a table of definite integrals for easy referencing by readers.

We apply our simultaneous contour integral method to an infinite sum in Prudnikov et al. and use it to derive the infinite sum of the Incomplete gamma function in terms of the Hurwitz zeta function. We then evaluate this formula to derive new series in terms of special functions and fundamental constants. All the results in this work are new.

AbstractIn this study, motivated by the frequent use of Fox-Wright function in the theory of special functions, we first introduced new generalizations of gamma and beta functions with the help of Fox-Wright function. Then by using these functions, we defined generalized Gauss hypergeometric function and generalized confluent hypergeometric function. For all the generalized functions we have defined, we obtained their integral representations, summation formulas, transformation formulas, derivative formulas and difference formulas. Also, we calculated the Mellin transformations of these functions.

AbstractWe provide an explicit analytical representation for a number of logarithmic integrals in terms of the Lerch transcendent function and other special functions. The integrals in question will be associated with both alternating harmonic numbers and harmonic numbers with positive terms. A few examples of integrals will be given an identity in terms of some special functions including the Riemann zeta function. In general none of these integrals can be solved by any currently available mathematical package.
