Is there a name for infinite series of this type?



I asked a question about this series;



(112)+(1314)(112+13)+(1516)(112+1314+15)+(1718)(112+1314+1516+17)+...



in a previous thread and something else about it that I'd like to know is if there is a name for series where the coefficient of each term is a partial sum? Furthermore, is there a general method for finding the closed form sums of such series?



Answer



There is no special name since what you have is just a double summation instead of a single summation. Your series is nothing but
n=02n+1k=1(12n+112n+2)((1)k1k)


which can also be written as a single summation
n=0(12n+112n+2)(H2n+1Hn)
