In mathematics, a Lambert series, named for Johann Heinrich Lambert, is a series taking the form
It can be resummed formally by expanding the denominator:
where the coefficients of the new series are given by the Dirichlet convolution of an with the constant function 1(n) = 1:
This series may be inverted by means of the Möbius inversion formula, and is an example of a Möbius transform.
