  2. Convergent series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_series

    In mathematics, a series is the sum of the terms of an infinite sequence of numbers. More precisely, an infinite sequence (,,, …) defines a series S that is denoted = + + + = =. The n th partial sum S n is the sum of the first n terms of the sequence; that is,

  3. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_series

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  4. Euler–Maclaurin formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Maclaurin_formula

    In mathematics, the Euler–Maclaurin formula is a formula for the difference between an integral and a closely related sum.It can be used to approximate integrals by finite sums, or conversely to evaluate finite sums and infinite series using integrals and the machinery of calculus.

  5. Series (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_(mathematics)

    Similarly, in a series, any finite groupings of terms of the series will not change the limit of the partial sums of the series and thus will not change the sum of the series. However, if an infinite number of groupings is performed in an infinite series, then the partial sums of the grouped series may have a different limit than the original ...

  6. Geometric series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_series

    The geometric series is an infinite series derived from a special type of sequence called a geometric progression.This means that it is the sum of infinitely many terms of geometric progression: starting from the initial term , and the next one being the initial term multiplied by a constant number known as the common ratio .

  7. Cesàro summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cesàro_summation

    In mathematical analysis, Cesàro summation (also known as the Cesàro mean [1] [2] or Cesàro limit [3]) assigns values to some infinite sums that are not necessarily convergent in the usual sense. The Cesàro sum is defined as the limit, as n tends to infinity, of the sequence of arithmetic means of the first n partial sums of the series.

  8. Summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

    Summations of infinite sequences are called series. They involve the concept of limit, and are not considered in this article. The summation of an explicit sequence is denoted as a succession of additions. For example, summation of [1, 2, 4, 2] is denoted 1 + 2 + 4 + 2, and results in 9, that is, 1 + 2 + 4 + 2 = 9.

  9. Ramanujan summation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramanujan_summation

    Ramanujan summation is a technique invented by the mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan for assigning a value to divergent infinite series.Although the Ramanujan summation of a divergent series is not a sum in the traditional sense, it has properties that make it mathematically useful in the study of divergent infinite series, for which conventional summation is undefined.
