Series of sums of products of higher-order Bernoulli functions

摘要

It is shown in a previous work that Faber-Pandharipande-Zagier’s and Miki’s identities can be derived from a polynomial identity, which in turn follows from the Fourier series expansion of sums of products of Bernoulli functions. Motivated by and generalizing this, we consider three types of functions given by sums of products of higher-order Bernoulli functions and derive their Fourier series expansions. Moreover, we express each of them in terms of Bernoulli functions.
