Abstract: In this paper we present a generalization of Faulhaber's formula to sums of arbitrary complex powers $minmathbbC$. These summation formulas for sums of the form $su{m}_{k=1}^{lfloorxfloor}{k}^m$ and $su{m}_{k=1}^n{k}^m$, where $xinmathbb{R}^{+}$ and $ninmathbbN$, are based on a series acceleration involving Stirling numbers of the first kind. While it is well-known that the corresponding expressions obtained from the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula diverge, our summation formulas are all very rapidly convergent.
