The Faulhaber Formula Analytic Continuation
Abstract
We extend the Faulhaber formula to the whole complex plane, obtaining an expression that fully resembles the Euler-Maclaurin summation formula, only it's exact. Thereafter, an expression for the generalized harmonic progressions valid in the whole complex plane is also derived. Lastly, we extend a formula for the Hurwitz zeta function valid at the negative integers, ζ(-k,b), to the whole complex plane, following a similar procedure.
