Discovering and Proving Infinite Binomial Sums Identities
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider binomial and inverse binomial sums at infinity and rewrite them in terms of a small set of constants, such as powers of π or log(2). In order to perform these simplifications, we view the series as specializations of generating series. For these generating series, we derive integral representations in terms of root-valued iterated integrals. Using substitutions, we express the interated integrals as cyclotomic harmonic polylogarithms. Finally, by applying known relations among the cyclotomic harmonic polylogarithms, we derive expressions in terms of several constants.

New Multiple Harmonic Sum Identities
We consider a special class of binomial sums involving harmonic numbers and we prove three identities by using the elementary method of the partial fraction decomposition. Some applications to infinite series and congruences are given.
متن کاملFractional Sums and Euler-like Identities
when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the Γ function or Euler’s little-known formula ∑ −1/2 ν=1 1 ν = −2 ln 2 . Many classical identities like the geometric series and the binomial theorem nicely extend to this more general setting. Sums with a fractional number of terms are closely...
متن کاملRational Functions Certify Combinatorial Identities
This paper presents a general method for proving and discovering combinatorial identities: to prove an identity one can present a certi cate that consists of a pair of functions of two integer variables. To prove the identity, take the two functions that are given, check that condition (1) below is satis ed (a simple mechanical task), and check the equally simple fact that the boundary conditio...
متن کاملIntegrals and Polygamma Representations for Binomial Sums
We consider sums involving the product of reciprocal binomial coefficient and polynomial terms and develop some double integral identities. In particular cases it is possible to express the sums in closed form, give some general results, recover some known results in Coffey and produce new identities.

In this short note, we establish some identities containing sums of binomials with coefficients satisfying third order linear recursive relations. As a result and in particular, we obtain general forms of earlier identities involving binomial coefficients and Fibonacci type sequences.
