optimization - How to simplify the summation of log

I have a summation that involve log. I don't know how to solve this summation. I want to find an expression (even a good approximation is enough) for this summation.



nk=0log(ak)

or
log(nk=0ak)



I only know that
nk=0ak=N



Any help Please?



Edit




Let ak is a random variable which can take its value according to binomial (or normal) distribution. Then how to solve the above log summation problem.
