Want Closed Form for an Integral/Summation

85 Views Asked by At

I am working on a mathematical model looks like this

$$\sum_{t=0}^\infty {A\over e^{(k-r)t}B + e^{kt}C}$$

$k,r$ are fixed real numbers, $k-r$ is positive, $t$ is the index, and $A,B,C$ are non-zero constants.

I feel difficulty find a closed form for that. I try to use integral test to pound it since $i-r$ is positive.

However, I am not able to calculate the following integral:

$$\int_{t=1}^\infty {A\over e^{(k-r)t}B + e^{kt}C}$$

So I wonder whether I will be able to get a closed for my original summation? Could anyone help on this?

Really appreciated!
