Euler’s method of rearranging absolutely convergent series

E300760

Euler’s method of rearranging absolutely convergent series is a technique introduced by Leonhard Euler to systematically reorder and manipulate convergent infinite series in order to derive new identities and product expansions, such as those appearing in analytic number theory.
