Do Abel summation and zeta summation always coincide?
This is a more focused version of Summation methods for divergent series.
Let $a_n$ be a sequence of real
numbers such that $\lim_{x \to 1^{-}}
> \sum a_n x^n$ and $\lim_{s \to 0^{+}}
> \...

Cesaro(?)/Euler(?) - summation of the $s(p)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty (-1)^{H(k)} (1+k)^p$ for $p=1,2,3,...$ (where $H(k)$ is the Hamming-weight)
In another thread (in MO) there was a question about a series where the signs at the terms alternate with the "Hamming-weight", that means according to the number of bits in the binary representation ...

Divergence of Dirichlet series
Suppose $s$ is a complex number with $\Re(s) \in (0,1]$ and $\{a_n\}$ is a complex sequence converging to $a \neq 0$. Must the Dirichlet series $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{a_n}{n^s}$$ diverge?
I asked ...

Reference request: Rigorously solving ODEs using divergent asymptotic series
In my research I have come across a divergent asymptotic series $\sum_{n =0}^\infty a_n f_n(x)$ that formally solves a certain fairly simple nonlinear second-order ODE but does not seem to correspond ...
