Let converge absolutely for . Perron formula states that for and nonintegral ,
where the integral is understood as the limit of symmetric truncations under the usual convergence hypotheses. If is an integer, the endpoint term is counted with weight . Effective versions truncate at height and include an explicit error depending on the coefficients and the distance of from nearby integers.
