HARMONIC series is divergent, but REGULARIZABLE
\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n} = - \frac{\Gamma '(1)}{\Gamma(1)}
the idea is that Harmonic series is the logarithmic derivative (a=1) of the infinite product
\prod (n+a) which can be 'regularized' to give e^{ - \zeta ' _{H} (0,a)
here the Zeta function is the Hurwitz one , the above is the definition of zeta-regularized determinat
