    This list of mathematical series contains formulae for finite and infinite sums. It can be used in conjunction with other tools for evaluating sums. Here, is taken to have the value {} denotes the fractional part of

  3. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    In mathematics, summation is the addition of a sequence of numbers, called addends or summands; the result is their sum or total.Beside numbers, other types of values can be summed as well: functions, vectors, matrices, polynomials and, in general, elements of any type of mathematical objects on which an operation denoted "+" is defined.

  4. List of sums of reciprocals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sums_of_reciprocals

    The conjecture asks whether the equation has an infinitude of solutions in which the sum of the reciprocals of the three exponents in the equation must be less than 1. The purpose of this restriction is to preclude the known infinitude of solutions in which two exponents are 2 and the other exponent is any even number.

    Abel's summation formula can be generalized to the case where is only assumed to be continuous if the integral is interpreted as a Riemann–Stieltjes integral: ∑ x < n ≤ y a n ϕ ( n ) = A ( y ) ϕ ( y ) − A ( x ) ϕ ( x ) − ∫ x y A ( u ) d ϕ ( u ) . {\displaystyle \sum _{x<n\leq y}a_{n}\phi (n)=A(y)\phi (y)-A(x)\phi (x)-\int _{x ...

  6. Harmonic series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, the harmonic series is the infinite series formed by summing all positive unit fractions: = = + + + + +. The first n {\displaystyle n} terms of the series sum to approximately ln ⁡ n + γ {\displaystyle \ln n+\gamma } , where ln {\displaystyle \ln } is the natural logarithm and γ ≈ 0.577 {\displaystyle \gamma \approx 0.577 ...

  7. Series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a series is, roughly speaking, an addition of infinitely many terms, one after the other. [1] The study of series is a major part of calculus and its generalization, mathematical analysis. Series are used in most areas of mathematics, even for studying finite structures in combinatorics through generating functions.

  8. Ramanujan summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramanujan_summation

    Ramanujan summation is a technique invented by the mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan for assigning a value to divergent infinite series.Although the Ramanujan summation of a divergent series is not a sum in the traditional sense, it has properties that make it mathematically useful in the study of divergent infinite series, for which conventional summation is undefined.

  9. Formal sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_sum

    In linear algebra, an element of a vector space, a sum of finitely many elements from a given basis set multiplied by real, complex, or other numerical coefficients. In the study of series (mathematics) , a sum of an infinite sequence of numbers or other quantities, considered as an abstract mathematical object regardless of whether the sum ...
