Gosper's algorithm and Bell numbers

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Computers are good at evaluating finite sums in closed form, but there are finite sums which do not have closed forms. Summands which do not produce a closed form can often be ``fixed by multiplying them by a suitable polynomial. We provide an explicit description of a class of such polynomials for simple hypergeometric summands in terms of the Bell numbers.
