What are the properties of umbra with moments $\{1,1/2,1/3,1/4,1/5,...\}$?
I'll sketch here some of the general Sheffer Appell-umbral calculus relationships between the Bernoulli numbers / polynomials and the reciprocal (natural) numbers / polynomials. Perhaps when I have ...

Sum over Bessel functions: what is $\sum_{n=1}^\infty J_n(u)J_n(v)\sin(n\alpha)$?
I don't think a "closed form" expression exists, I tried several approaches. I guess the best one can do is to use a modified version of the OP's integral representation.
Denote
$$
w(\psi) = ...

Where or what is the general formula for the $n$th derivative of the power-exponential function $x^x$?
The Stirling numbers of the first kind $s(n,k)$ for $n\ge k\ge0$ can be analytically generated by
\begin{equation*}%\label{1st-stirl-gen-funct}
\frac{[\ln(1+t)]^k}{k!}=\sum_{n=k}^\infty s(n,k)\frac{t^...

Solutions of complex linear difference equations
Look for a solution of the form $f(z)=e^{\lambda z}$. Plugging this to your equation, you obtain that
$\lambda$ must be a zero of the entire function
$$F(\lambda)=\sum_{j=1}^n e^{\lambda\eta_j}.$$

Asymptotic analysis of an expression involving a Fox's H function
Your expression can be simplified as follows: As $m=q=4$, the denominator parameter $(0,1)$ cancels with the numerator parameter $(0,1)$. Furthermore, as all linear coefficients are one, the Fox H ...

The exact constant in a bound on ratios of Gamma functions
The optimal $C$ is $\mathrm{e}$.
Proof:
We have
$$\ln C \ge \ln a - \ln(a + b)
+ \frac{\ln \Gamma(a + b)
-\ln a - \ln\Gamma(a) - \ln\Gamma(b)}{a}.$$
Let
$$F(a, b) := \ln a - \ln(a + b)
+ \frac{\ln ...

Definite integral of the square root of a polynomial ratio
The expression obtained by @Robert can be simplified with the Imaginary-Argument Transformation from DLMF 19.7.7. Then, the limit $t\to 1^-$ can be performed. The result can be further simplified and ...
