Possible regularisation for sum of function of primes
Consider the following sum of function of primes:
$$-\sum_{p}\ln\left( 1 - \frac{1}{(ep)^{1/2}} \right){\ln(p)}$$
Here $p$ runs through all primes and $e$ is Euler's constant.
We can see that the sum ...

Is there a conjecture about the bounds (constant or a function) of $\sum_{n \le x} \mu(n)/\sqrt{n}$
Here $\mu(n)$ is Möbius function and $M(x)$ is Mertens function.
The computations show that the partial sums $\sum_{n \le x} \frac{\mu(n)}{\sqrt{n}}$ stays between $-0.2$ and $-1.2$ when $10^1<x<...

Is regularization of infinite sums by analytic continuation unique?
There are ill-posed summations that we can assign values to, take for concreteness,
$$ S = \sum_{k=0}^\infty k $$
to which we can assign $-1/12$ by several methods. Is there a fundamental and rigorous ...

Guessing of $n$th prime from "super- regularized" product of primes
( I've been thinking about asking this for a long time . Though this is not rigorous; It can be thought of as heuristic or extraction of information from different viewpoint.)
We know "super-...

Regularization on divergent series [closed]
I want to compute $$ \sum ^{\infty }_{n=1}\dfrac {\left( 2n+k-2\right) !\zeta \left( 2n\right) \left( -1\right) ^{n-1}}{\left( 2\pi \right) ^{2n}}. $$
This series is surely not convergent for any ...

What is the (fractional) half-derivative of zeta at $s=0$ (and how to compute it)?
(I asked this in MSE before but there was only a general reference which did not help for my specific question)
I think I understood the concept of fractional derivatives applied to ...

Efficient way for computation of derivatives of $f(x) = \zeta(1-x) + 1/x $ at integer x?
[This question is copied from math.stackexchange, it didn't get answers so far]
For some exercises with (divergent) summation of the Stieltjes constants,see also MSE I'm trying a formula, which ...

Does the equation $1 + 2 + 3 + \dots = -\frac{1}{12}$ have a natural $p$-adic interpretation?
Consider the equation
$$1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + \cdots = - \frac{1}{12},$$
"proved" by Ramanujan Euler. One correct way to interpret this is that $\zeta(-1) = - \frac{1}{12},$ where $\zeta(s) = \sum_{n = 1}^{\...

Regularizing the divergent sum $1^k + 2^k + \cdots$
EDIT:
Under this "regularization", the harmonic series can be interpreted as $s_{-1}$ and assigned a value $$s_{-1} = \lim_{k \rightarrow 1} \zeta(k) (2-2^k) = -2 \log 2$$
I was looking at ...
