Regularizing the sum of all primes
In the spirit of a similar question for the harmonic series, is there a way to regularize the (divergent) sum of all primes?
$$ \sum_{p \text{ prime}} p $$
Neither of these questions obtained a ...

Alternating series $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{k+1} (H_k)^p z^k$ and multiple zeta values
Motivated by analytic continuation of solutions of a Picard-Fuchs equation, we encountered sums of the following form
$S(z;p)=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{k+1} (H_k)^p z^k$
where $H_k = \sum_{n=1}^{k} 1/...

Efficient (divergent) summation for sum of zetas at negative arguments?
In a question in MSE (see bottom of my own answer) I'm considering the following series, depending on a parameter m:
$$ L(m) = -\zeta(1m)/1 - \zeta(2m)/2 - \zeta(3m)/3 - \ldots $$
where I want to make ...

Is there a "quantum" Riemann zeta function?
Occasionally I find myself in a situation where a naive, non-rigorous computation leads me to a divergent sum, like $\sum_{n=1}^\infty n$. In times like these, a standard approach is to guess the ...
