Summation Formulas of Euler–Maclaurin and Abel–Plana: Old and New Results and Applications
Summation formulas of the Euler–Maclaurin and Abel–Plana and their connections with several kinds of quadrature rules are studied. Besides the history of these formulas, several of theirExpand
Rationality of the spectral action for Robertson-Walker metrics and the geometry of the determinant line bundle for the noncommutative two torus
In noncommutative geometry, the geometry of a space is given via a spectral triple (A,H, D). Geometric information, in this approach, is encoded in the spectrum of D and to extract them, one shouldExpand

In this paper we give an account on summation/integration methods for the computation of slowly convergent series and finite sums. The methods are based on Gauss-Christoffel quadrature rules withExpand
A Recurrence Relation for Bernoulli Numbers
Inspired by a result of Saalsch¨utz, we prove a recurrence relation forBernoulli numbers. This recurrence relation has an interesting connection with real cyclotomic fields.
