Abstract

A variety of infinite series representations for the Hurwitz zeta function are obtained. Particular cases recover known results, while others are new. Specialization of the series representations apply to the Riemann zeta function, leading to additional results. The method is briefly extended to the Lerch zeta function. Most of the series representations exhibit fast convergence, making them attractive for the computation of special functions and fundamental constants.
