I have the self-referencing recurrence relation $$ d(0) = 0 $$ $$ d(1) = a $$ $$ d(n+1) = d(n) + a*e^{-(\frac{d(n)-n*c}{b})^4} $$ Written as a sum: $$ d(N) = a*\sum_{n=0}^{N}e^{-(\frac{d(n)-n*c}{b})^...

Lagrange polynomial can be used to obtain an identity: $$(k+t)^n = \sum_{i=0}^n (k+d_i)^n \prod_{\substack{j=0\\ j\not=i}}^n \frac{t-d_j}{d_i-d_j},$$ which holds for any integer $n>0$, any real ...

Hi, I am looking for a closed-form expression for the finite sum of the product of an exponential function with a polynomial function --- that is, the sum ...
