Series convergence without sigma notation

First, notice that $$F_n=\frac{1}{6n+1}+\frac{10}{6n+2}+\frac{100}{6n+3}-\frac{37}{6n+4}-\frac{37}{6n+5}-\frac{37}{6n+6} \geq \frac{111}{6n+3}-\frac{111}{6n+4} > 0.$$ Then, notice that $$F_n \leq \frac{111}{6n+1}-\frac{111}{6n+6}=\frac{555}{(6n+1)(6n+6)}.$$

Thus the sum of $F_n$ converges. How can you infer the final result from this?


I presume the pattern $(1, 10, 100, -37, -37, -37)$ continues forever, so this is $$ \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{a_n}{n}$$ where $$ a_n = \cases{1 & if $n \equiv 1 \mod 6$\cr 10 & if $n \equiv 2 \mod 6$\cr 100 & if $n \equiv 3 \mod 6$\cr -37 & if $n \equiv 4,5$ or $0 \mod 6$\cr}$$ Note that $1+10+100 - 3\times 37 = 0$. Then the $6m$ -th partial sum $$ \eqalign{S_m &= \sum_{n=1}^{6m} \frac{a_n}{n}\cr & = \sum_{j=0}^m \frac{1}{6j+1} + 10 \sum_{j=0}^m \frac{1}{6j+2} + 100 \sum_{j=0}^m \frac{1}{6j+3} - 37 \sum_{k=4}^6 \sum_{j=0}^m \frac{1}{6j+k}\cr &= \frac{1}{6} \left(\Psi(m+1+1/6) - \Psi(1/6) + 10 (\Psi(m+1+2/6) - \Psi(2/6)) + 100 (\Psi(m+1+3/6) - \Psi(3/6)) - 37 (\Psi(m+1+4/6)+\Psi(m+1+5/6)+\Psi(m+1+6/6)-\Psi(4/6)-\Psi(5/6)-\Psi(6/6))\right)\cr}$$

and since $\Psi(x) = \ln(x) + O(1/x)$ as $x \to \infty$, the sum converges. In fact, the limit is $$ \frac{64}{3} \ln(2) - \frac{63}{4} \ln(3) +\frac{161}{36} \pi \sqrt{3}$$


Added for your curiosity but too long for a comment.

Starting from Robert Israel's elegant answer, it is possible to have quite accurate approximations of the partiel sums using the fact that, for large values of $p$ we have $$\Psi (p)=\log \left({p}\right)-\frac{1}{2 p}-\frac{1}{12 p^2}+\frac{1}{120 p^4}+O\left(\frac{1}{p^6}\right)$$ making $$S_m=\left(\frac{64}{3} \ln(2) - \frac{63}{4} \ln(3) +\frac{161}{36} \pi \sqrt{3}\right)-\frac{13}{2 m}+\frac{23}{3 m^2}-\frac{311}{36 m^3}+\frac{499}{54 m^4}-\frac{36377}{3888 m^5}+O\left(\frac{1}{m^6}\right)$$ Below are listed some values $$\left( \begin{array}{ccc} m & \text{approximation} & \text{exact} \\ 2 & 19.691108 & 19.787015 \\ 3 & 20.259944 & 20.269370 \\ 4 & 20.565282 & 20.567065 \\ 5 & 20.768485 & 20.768971 \\ 6 & 20.914700 & 20.914867 \\ 7 & 21.025135 & 21.025202 \\ 8 & 21.111527 & 21.111558 \\ 9 & 21.180965 & 21.180981 \end{array} \right)$$
