Polylogarithm further generalized

Here I proposed a generalized formula for the polylogarithm. However, because of a slight mistake towards the end, visible prior to the edit, I was unaware that it yields just a result of an integral ...

Evaluate $\sum\limits_{n=0}^\infty\operatorname W(e^{e^{an}})x^n$ with Lambert W function

$\def\W{\operatorname W} \def\Li{\operatorname{Li}} $ Interested by $\sum_\limits{n=1}^\infty\frac{\W(n^2)}{n^2}$, here is an example where Lagrange reversion applies to a Lambert W sum: $$\W(x)=\ln(...

Further Stirling number series resummation

\begin{equation} \sum_{m=1}^\infty\sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^{n } \frac{S_m^{(3)}}{m! n}(-1 + u)^{(m + n - 1)} (\frac{x}{-1 + x})^m \end{equation} Note: $S^{(3)}_m$ belongs to the Stirling number of the ...

Stirling number series resummation

\begin{equation}\sum_{m=1}^{\infty}\frac{a_1^3 S_m^{(3)} (u-1)^{m-1} \left(\frac{x}{x-1}\right)^m}{m!}\end{equation} Does somebody know the result of this resummation? Note: $S_m^{(3)} $ belongs to ...

Find the series expansion of $\frac{\ln^4(1-x)}{1-x}$

How to prove that $$\frac{\ln^4(1-x)}{1-x}=\sum_{n=1}^\infty\left(H_n^4-6H_n^2H_n^{(2)}+8H_nH_n^{(3)}+3\left(H_n^{(2)}\right)^2-6H_n^{(4)}\right)x^n=S_n$$ where $H_n^{(a)}=\sum_{k=1}^n\frac1{k^a}$...

Polylogarithms of negative integer order

The polylogarithms of order $s$ are defined by $$\mathrm{Li}_s (z) = \sum_{k \geqslant 1} \frac{z^k}{k^s}, \quad |z| < 1.$$ From the above definition, derivatives for the polylogarithms ...
