Hurwitz Zeta Function - Special Cases and Generalizations

Special Cases and Generalizations

The Hurwitz zeta function with non-negative integer m is related to the polygamma function:

For negative integer −n the values are related to the Bernoulli polynomials:

The Barnes zeta function generalizes the Hurwitz zeta function.

The Lerch transcendent generalizes the Hurwitz zeta:

\Phi(z, s, q) = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac { z^k} {(k+q)^s}

and thus

Hypergeometric function

Famous quotes containing the words special and/or cases:

    “The books may say that nine-month-olds crawl, say their first words, and are afraid of strangers. Your exuberantly concrete and special nine-month-old hasn’t read them. She may be walking already, not saying a word and smiling gleefully at every stranger she sees. . . . You can support her best by helping her learn what she’s trying to learn, not what the books say a typical child ought to be learning.”
    —Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)

    “You all know that even when women have full rights, they still remain fatally downtrodden because all housework is left to them. In most cases housework is the most unproductive, the most barbarous and the most arduous work a woman can do. It is exceptionally petty and does not include anything that would in any way promote the development of the woman.”
    —Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870–1924)
