Numerators of the rational number triangle R(m, a) = (m - 2*a)/(2*m), m >= 1, a = 1, ..., m. This is a regularized Sum_{j >= 0} (a + m*j)^(-s) for s = 0 defined by analytic continuation of a generalized Hurwitz Zeta function.

%N Numerators of the rational number triangle R(m, a) = (m - 2*a)/(2*m), m >= 1, a = 1, ..., m. This is a regularized Sum_{j >= 0} (a + m*j)^(-s) for s = 0 defined by analytic continuation of a generalized Hurwitz Zeta function.

%C For the denominator triangle see A267864.

%C Hurwitz' generalized m-family of Zeta functions f(m; s, a) = Sum_{j = 0} 1/(a + m*j)^s, with m >= 1, a = 1, 2, ... , m, defined for Re(s) > 1, is analytically continued via a certain integral, and is then valid for complex s. See the Hurwitz reference where f(m; s, a) is called f(s, a), or f(s, a | m) if the m dependence is indicated. Here R(m, a) = f(m; 0, a).

%C The usual Hurwitz Zeta function is f(1; s, a). The usual Zeta function is f(1; s, 1).

%C Remember the Zeta function regularized Sum_{j >= 1} 1 = Zeta(0) = -1/2, (here a = m = 1). More generally, Zeta(1 - k) = -(-1)^k*B_k/k , k >= 1, with the Bernoulli numbers A027641/A027642.

%C The general analytically continued result of Hurwitz is f(m; -n, a) = ((-1)^n)*n!*[x^n] (exp((m-a)*x))/(exp(m*x) - 1) , n >= 0. (n is called rho in Hurwitz's article). Here n = 0.

%C For n = 1, 2, and 3 see A268915/A268916, A268917/A268918 and A268919/A268920, respectively.
