approximating sums of rational functions


Given a sum of the form m=nf(m) where f is a rationalfunction, it is possible to approximate it by approximating f by anotherrational function which can be summed in closed formPlanetmathPlanetmath. Furthermore, theapproximation so obtained becomes better as n increases.

We begin with a simple illustrative example. Suppose that we want to summ=n1/m2. We approximate m2 by m2-1/4, whichfactors as (m+1/2)(m-1/2). Then, upon separating the approximate summandinto partial fractionsPlanetmathPlanetmath, the sum collapses:

m=n1(m+1/2)(m-1/2)=m=n(1m-1/2-1m+1/2)
=m=n1m-1/2-m=n+11m-1/2
=1n-1/2

Using a similar approach, we may estimate the error of our approximation.
