  • η(0) = 1⁄2, the Abel sum of Grandi's series 1 − 1 + 1 − 1 + · · ·.
  • η(−1) = 1⁄4, the Abel sum of 1 − 2 + 3 − 4 + · · ·.
  • For k an integer > 1, if Bk is the k-th Bernoulli number then

Famous quotes containing the word values:

    Normality highly values its normal man. It educates children to lose themselves and to become absurd, and thus to be normal. Normal men have killed perhaps 100,000,000 of their fellow normal men in the last fifty years.
    —R.D. (Ronald David)

    We must be physicists in order ... to be creative since so far codes of values and ideals have been constructed in ignorance of physics or even in contradiction to physics.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
