Closed form for $\psi^{1/k}(1)$, where $k$ is an integer

I have proven the identity $$ \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{\operatorname{_2F_1}(1, 2, 2-1/t,-1/k)}{{k}^{2}} = Γ(2-\dfrac{1}t){\psi^{1/t}(1)}+\psi(-\dfrac{1}t)(\dfrac{1}t(1-\dfrac{1}t))+\gamma(1-\dfrac{1}...

Sum to closed form?

I need to evaluate the following summation to closed form: $$\sum _{k=1}^{\infty } \frac{\sin (e k n \pi ) \sin (e k (1+n) \pi )}{k \pi \sin (e k \pi )}$$ where: $n>1$ and $n\in \mathbb{Z}$, $e \...

Closed form for $\sum_{k\in\mathbb{N}}\frac{k}{a\uparrow^kb}$

Let $a,b\in\Bbb{N}$. Is there a closed form for $\displaystyle\sum_{k\in\mathbb{N}}\frac{k}{a\uparrow^kb}$ ? (I use Knuth's up arrow notation) If so, how can we obtain it ? If there isn't a closed ...

Calculation of $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\psi_1(n)}{2^nn^2}$

Calculation of $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\psi_1(n)}{2^nn^2}$$ My attempt \begin{align*} \sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\psi_1(n)}{2^n n^2} &= -\sum_{n=1}^\infty\psi_1(n)\left(\frac{\log(2)}{2^n n}+\int_0^...

Manipulation of summations

this question branches off another question that can be seen here Now we begin be taking a look at the following expressions: $$ \sum_{k=1}^{n-l} \sum_{j-0}^m \frac{\ln(g)^{m-j}}{g^k} \frac{d^j}{df^j}...
