An equal expression to $sum^{z}_{n=0}nfrac{x^{z-n}}{(z-n)!}$












0














Is there a way to rewrite an equal expression to the following



$$sum^{z}_{n=0}nfrac{x^{z-n}}{(z-n)!}$$



but without the sum?



$z$ is integer and $xgeq 0$.

          The answer is no. By making the change of avriable $k=z-n$ and splitting the sum into two parts you get $(z-x)sum_{k=1}^{z-1} frac {x^{k}} {k!} +frac {zx^{z}} {z!}$ from which you cannot get rid of the sum.

          • Thank you @Kavi Rama Murthy, but you gave the answer. I just use the Gamma function for the last sum and I get the expression.

          Sticking to a more standard notation ($z$ normally denotes complex, not integral, number)



          begin{align}
          sum_{k=0}^n k frac{x^{n-k}}{(n-k)!}
          &= sum_{k=0}^{n} (n-k) frac{x^k}{k!}
          = nsum_{k=0}^n frac{x^k}{k!} - sum_{k=0}^n xfrac{d}{dx} frac{x^k}{k!}\
          &= nP_n(x) - xfrac{d}{dx}P_n(x)
          end{align}



          where $P_n(x) = sum_{k=0}^n frac{x^k}{k!}$ is the partial sum of the exponential's Taylor series. But as can be seen here, the incomplete gamma function $Gamma(n,x) = int_x^{infty} x^{n-1}e^{-x};dx$ may be expressed as



          $$Gamma(n,x) = (n-1)! e^{-x} sum_{k=0}^{n-1}frac{x^k}{k!}$$
          hence,
          $$P_n(x) = frac{Gamma(n+1,x)}{n!} e^x$$
          We may then compute



          begin{align}
          frac{d}{dx}P_n(x)
          &= P_n(x) frac{d}{dx} ln P_n(x) = P_n(x) left[,frac{frac{partial}{partial{x}}Gamma(n+1,x)}{Gamma(n+1,x)} + 1,right]\
          &= frac{Gamma(n+1,x)}{n!} e^x left[,frac{-x^ne^{-x}}{Gamma(n+1,x)} + 1,right]\
          &= frac{Gamma(n+1,x)}{n!} e^x - frac{x^n}{n!}
          end{align}



          Solving and simplifying, we get



          begin{align}
          sum_{k=0}^n k frac{x^{n-k}}{(n-k)!}
          &= nP_n(x) - xfrac{d}{dx}P_n(x)\
          &= frac{1}{n!} left[,(n-x)Gamma(n+1,x)e^x + x^{n+1},right]
          end{align}
