Abstract

We apply our simultaneous contour integral method to an infinite sum in Prudnikov et al. and use it to derive the infinite sum of the Incomplete gamma function in terms of the Hurwitz zeta function. We then evaluate this formula to derive new series in terms of special functions and fundamental constants. All the results in this work are new.
