Books about harmonic numbers

677 Views Asked by At

I'm looking for books about harmonic numbers, where I could find proofs of results about them. For example a proof for the fact, that the generating function of the generalized harmonic numbers is $$ \sum_{n=1}^\infty H_{n}^{(m)} z^n = \frac {\mathrm{Li}_m(z)}{1-z}. $$ I'm also interested in particular evaluations of sums involving harmonic numbers, like this: $$ \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{H_n}{n^2 2^n}=\zeta(3)-\frac{1}{2}\ln(2)\zeta(2). $$ I'm also interested in sums of generalized harmonic numbers and also alternating harmonic numbers.

Zeta and q-Zeta Functions and Associated Series and Integrals (Elsevier Insights) and the papers referenced therein regarding harmonic numbers and generalised harmonic numbers has a fair bit of info.
