As shown in Temme (1996b, §3.4), the results given in §5.7(ii) can be used to sum infinite series of rational functions. …

Many special functions f ( z ) can be represented as a Mellin–Barnes integral, that is, an integral of a product of gamma functions, reciprocals of gamma functions, and a power of z , the integration contour being doubly-infinite and eventually parallel to the imaginary axis at both ends. …By translating the contour parallel to itself and summing the residues of the integrand, asymptotic expansions of f ( z ) for large | z | , or small | z | , can be obtained complete with an integral representation of the error term. …

4: 27.13 Functions
Each representation of n as a sum of elements of S is called a partition of n , and the number S ( n ) of such partitions is often of great interest. … This problem is named after Edward Waring who, in 1770, stated without proof and with limited numerical evidence, that every positive integer n is the sum of four squares, of nine cubes, of nineteen fourth powers, and so on. … Hardy and Littlewood (1925) conjectures that G ( k ) < 2 k + 1 when k is not a power of 2, and that G ( k ) 4 k when k is a power of 2, but the most that is known (in 2009) is G ( k ) < c k ln k for some constant c . …

5: 1.10 Functions of a Complex Variable
Analytic continuation is a powerful aid in establishing transformations or functional equations for complex variables, because it enables the problem to be reduced to: (a) deriving the transformation (or functional equation) with real variables; followed by (b) finding the domain on which the transformed function is analytic. … (In other words n F n is the coefficient of ( z z 0 ) 1 in the Laurent expansion of 1 / ( f ( z ) f ( z 0 ) ) n in powers of ( z z 0 ) ; compare §1.10(iii).) … Let F ( x , z ) have a converging power series expansion of the form …Then F ( x ; z ) is the generating function for the functions p n ( x ) , which will automatically have an integral representationMany properties are a direct consequence of this representation: Taking the x -derivative gives us …

Explicit representations for the coefficients c k are given in Volkmer (2023). It may be observed that H p , q ( z ) represents the sum of the residues of the poles of the integrand in (16.5.1) at s = a j , a j 1 , , j = 1 , , p , provided that these poles are all simple, that is, no two of the a j differ by an integer. … Here the upper or lower signs are chosen according as z lies in the upper or lower half-plane; in consequence, in the fractional powers4.2(iv)) of z e π i its phases are ph z π , respectively. … Explicit representations for the coefficients c k are given in Volkmer and Wood (2014). …

  • (d)

    Solution of the systems of linear algebraic equations (28.4.5)–(28.4.8) and (28.14.4), with the conditions (28.4.9)–(28.4.12) and (28.14.5), by boundary-value methods (§3.6) to determine the Fourier coefficients. Subsequently, the Fourier series can be summed with the aid of Clenshaw’s algorithm (§3.11(ii)). See Meixner and Schäfke (1954, §2.87). This procedure can be combined with §28.34(ii)(d).
