Force a sum to be calculated

$begingroup$


I want to force this sum to be calculated to 1



Sum[Cos[(Pi*l*(2*m + 1))/(n + 1)], {l, 0, n}]


Only DiscretePlot3D gives the correct result showing all point to 1






summation

The following code might do what you want:



s0 = Sum[Cos[(Pi*l*(2*m + 1))/(n + 1)], {l, 0, n}] // Simplify;

s1 = s0 /. {Cos[X_] - Cos[Y_] -> 2 Sin[(X + Y)/2] Sin[(Y - X)/2]};

s2 = s1 /. {Sin[x_] :> Sin[Factor@x], 

            Csc[x_] :> -Sin[(m + 1/2) Pi]/Sin[(m Pi - x)]};

s3 = Simplify[s2, m [Element] Integers]


which evaluates to 1. The step to s1 was easy, but I had to do lots of experimentation to find the steps to s2 and s3. In particular the rule
Csc[x_] :> -Sin[(m + 1/2) Pi]/Sin[(m Pi - x)] assumes that m is an integer but I could not get Mathematica to do it automatically. There may be better ways to simplify the sum s0 but perhaps others can produce them.
