The Lipschitz summation formula is one of them. In this paper, we give its application by providing a new transformation formula which generalizes that of Ramanujan. Ramanujan’s result, in turn, is a generalization of the modular transformation of Eisenstein series Ek(z) on SL2(Z), where z→-1/z,z∈H. The proof of our result involves delicate analysis containing Cauchy Principal Value integrals. A simpler proof of a recent result of ours with Kesarwani giving a non-modular transformation for ∑n=1∞σ2m(n)e-ny is also derived using the Lipschitz summation formula. In the pursuit of obtaining this transformation, we naturally encounter a new generalization of Raabe’s cosine transform whose several properties are also demonstrated. As an application of our results, we get a generalization of Wright’s asymptotic estimate for the generating function of the number of plane partitions of a positive integer n.falseHurwitz zeta function | Lambert series | Lipschitz summation formula | Raabe cosine transform | Ramanujan’s formulaArticle14320940179-218February 20251125738arJournal1WOS:001090267100001
