What or where is the series expansion of the function $\ln\bigl(\frac{\tan x}{x}-1\bigr)$ or $\ln(\tan x-x)$ around $x=0$?

It is known that \begin{equation*} \tan x=\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{2^{2k}\bigl(2^{2k}-1\bigr)}{(2k)!}|B_{2k}|x^{2k-1}, \quad |x|<\frac{\pi}{2} \end{equation*} and \begin{equation*} \ln\tan x=\ln x+\...

A closed form of a summation or the taylor series expansion of some function with a closed form?

Let $Z_N = \displaystyle{\sum_{k+j\leq N}} \frac{N!N^{k+j}}{N^{N+1}}\frac{u^kv^j}{k!j!}\binom{N-j}{N-j-k}$ where $u$ and $v$ are two unknowns. My question is: Is there a closed-form for $Z_N$ or is $...
