Expansions of generalized Euler's constants into the series of polynomials in $π^{-2}$ and into the formal enveloping series with rational coefficients only
Abstract: In this work, two new series expansions for generalized Euler's constants (Stieltjes constants) $\gamma_m$ are obtained. The first expansion involves Stirling numbers of the first kind, contains polynomials in $\pi{-2}$ with rational coefficients and converges slightly better than Euler's series $\sum n{-2}$. The second expansion is a semi-convergent series with rational coefficients only. This expansion is particularly simple and involves Bernoulli numbers with a non-linear combination of generalized harmonic numbers. It also permits to derive an interesting estimation for generalized Euler's constants, which is more accurate than several well-known estimations. Finally, in Appendix A, the reader will also find two simple integral definitions for the Stirling numbers of the first kind, as well an upper bound for them.
