EULER SUMS OF GENERALIZED HYPERHARMONIC NUMBERS

EULER SUMS OF GENERALIZED HYPERHARMONIC NUMBERS

The generalized hyperharmonic numbers $h^{(m)}_n(k)$ are defined by means of the multiple harmonic numbers. We show that the hyperharmonic numbers $h^{(m)}_n(k)$ satisfy certain recurrence relation which allow us to write them in terms of classical harmonic numbers. Moreover, we prove that the Euler-type sums with hyperharmonic numbers: $$S(k,m;p):=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{{\infty}}\frac{h^{(m)}_n(k)}{n^p}(p{\geq}m+1,\;k=1,2,3)$$ can be expressed as a rational linear combination of products of Riemann zeta values and harmonic numbers. This is an extension of the results of Dil [10] and $Mez{\ddot{o}}$ [19]. Some interesting new consequences and illustrative examples are considered.
