Abstract

The aim of this paper is to give some new classes of finite sums involving the numbers y(m, λ), the generalized harmonic functions, special numbers and polynomials, the Dedekind sums, and other combinatorial sum. Reciprocity laws for these sums are proven. Some applications of these reciprocity laws are presented. With aid of the reciprocity law of the Dedekind sums, formulas for many new finite sums are obtained. Relations among these new classes of finite sums, partial sum of the generalized harmonic functions, the Riemann zeta function, the Hurwitz zeta function, hypergeometric series, polylogarithms, digamma functions, polygmamma functions, and special numbers and polynomials and other combinatorial sums are given. Moreover, some formulas for the partial sum of the generalized harmonic functions and special numbers and polynomials are given. Finally, coments and observations on the results of this paper are given.

Keywords: Generating functions, Special numbers and polynomials, Finite sum, Generalized harmonic functions, Riemann zeta function, Hurwitz zeta function, Hypergeometric series, Polylogarithms, Digamma functions, Polygmamma functions, Dedekind sums, Hardy sums
