Abstract
The harmonic sum of the integers which are missing given digits in a base is expressed as plus corrections indexed by the excluded digits and expressed as integrals involving the digamma function and a suitable measure. A number of consequences are derived, such as explicit bounds, monotony, series representations and asymptotic expansions involving the zeta values at integers, and suitable moments of the measure. In the classic Kempner case of and 9 as the only excluded digit, the series representation turns out to be exactly identical with a result obtained by Fischer already in 1993. Extending this work is indeed the goal of the present contribution.
期刊介绍：
Our aim is to publish papers of interest to a wide mathematical audience. Our main interest is in expository articles that make high-level research results more widely accessible. In general, material submitted should be at least at the graduate level.Main articles must be written in such a way that a graduate-level research student interested in the topic of the paper can read them profitably. When the topic is quite specialized, or the main focus is a narrow research result, the paper is probably not appropriate for this journal. Most original research articles are not suitable for this journal, unless they have particularly broad appeal.Mathematical notes can be more focused than main articles. These should not simply be short research articles, but should address a mathematical question with reasonably broad appeal. Elementary solutions of elementary problems are typically not appropriate. Neither are overly technical papers, which should best be submitted to a specialized research journal.Clarity of exposition, accuracy of details and the relevance and interest of the subject matter will be the decisive factors in our acceptance of an article for publication. Submitted papers are subject to a quick overview before entering into a more detailed review process. All published papers have been refereed.
