[parent] table of partial fraction expansions (Example)

The purpose of this entry is to collect a table of Mittag-Leffler type partial fraction expansions for various functions.

Elementary Functions


$\displaystyle \pi \cot (\pi z)$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle {1 \over z} + \sum_{n=1}^\infty \left( {1 \over z - n} + {1 \over z + n} \right)$ (1)
$\displaystyle \pi \sec (\pi z)$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle {2 \over 1 - 2z} + \sum_{k=1}^\infty (-1)^{k+1} \left( {2 \over 2k - 1 - 2z} - {2 \over 2k + 1 - 2z} \right)$ (2)

Hypergeometric Functions


$\displaystyle {}_2F_1 (z,1;z+1;w)$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty {w^k \over z+k}$ (3)

Gamma Functions


$\displaystyle \psi (z) = {\Gamma'(z) \over \Gamma(z)} + \gamma$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle {1 \over z} + \sum_{k=1}^\infty \left( {1 \over k} - {1 \over z + k} \right)$ (4)
$\displaystyle (-1)^n {\psi^{(n)} (z) \over n!}$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty {1 \over (z + k)^n}$ (5)
$\displaystyle {\Gamma (x) \Gamma(\frac{1}{2}) \over \Gamma (x + \frac{1}{2})}$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty {(2n)! \over 2^{2n} (n!)^2} {1 \over x + n}$ (6)

Here $ \gamma$ is Mascheroni's constant.

Elliptic Functions


$\displaystyle \wp \left(z \left\vert \frac{1}{2} \omega, \frac{1}{2} \omega' \right.\right)$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle {1 \over z^2} + \sum_{\vert k\vert + \vert k'\vert \neq 0} \left(... ...er (z - k \omega - k' \omega')^2} - {1 \over (k \omega + k' \omega')^2} \right)$ (7)
