Expansion around half-integer values, binomial sums, and inverse binomial sums

Expansion around half-integer values, binomial sums and inverse binomial sums

I consider the expansion of transcendental functions in a small parameter around rational numbers. This includes in particular the expansion around half-integer values. I present algorithms which are suitable for an implementation within a symbolic computer algebra system. The method is an extension of the technique of nested sums. The algorithms allow in addition the evaluation of binomial sum...

Some Binomial Sums Involving Absolute Values

We consider several families of binomial sum identities whose definition involves the absolute value function. In particular, we consider centered double sums of the form

Binomial Sums and Identities

Generalising Tuenter’s binomial sums

Tuenter [Fibonacci Quarterly 40 (2002), 175-180] and other authors have considered centred binomial sums of the form Sr(n) = ∑

Multiple binomial sums

Multiple binomial sums form a large class of multi-indexed sequences, closed under partial summation, which contains most of the sequences obtained by multiple summation of products of binomial coefficients and also all the sequences with algebraic generating function. We study the representation of the generating functions of binomial sums by integrals of rational functions. The outcome is two...
