Fungrim entry: 34fafa

\psi^{(m)}\!\left(z + n\right) = \psi^{(m)}\!\left(z\right) + {\left(-1\right)}^{m} m ! \sum_{k=0}^{n - 1} \frac{1}{{\left(z + k\right)}^{m + 1}}

Assumptions:

m \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; z \in \mathbb{C} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; z \notin \{0, -1, \ldots\} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}

TeX:

\psi^{(m)}\!\left(z + n\right) = \psi^{(m)}\!\left(z\right) + {\left(-1\right)}^{m} m ! \sum_{k=0}^{n - 1} \frac{1}{{\left(z + k\right)}^{m + 1}}

m \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; z \in \mathbb{C} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; z \notin \{0, -1, \ldots\} \;\mathbin{\operatorname{and}}\; n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}
