i guess the series should be Σ_(k=1) ^∞  (k/((k^2 +1)^2 +8))
$$\mathrm{i}\:\mathrm{guess}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{series}\:\mathrm{should}\:\mathrm{be}\:\underset{\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\:\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\left(\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{8}} \\ $$

Σ_(k=1) ^∞ (1/((k+1)^2 +8))=(1/(4(√2)i))Σ_(k=1) ^∞ (1/((k+1−2(√2)i)))−(1/((k+1+2(√2)i)))  =(1/(4(√2)i))(ψ(2+2(√2)i)−ψ(2−2(√2)i))  But Σ_(k=1) ^∞ (k/((k+1)^2 +8))→Diverges
$$\underset{{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left({k}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{8}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}{i}}\underset{{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left({k}+\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}{i}\right)}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left({k}+\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}{i}\right)} \\ $$$$=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}{i}}\left(\psi\left(\mathrm{2}+\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}{i}\right)−\psi\left(\mathrm{2}−\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}{i}\right)\right) \\ $$$${But}\:\underset{{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{{k}}{\left({k}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{8}}\rightarrow{Diverges} \\ $$

If Σ_(k=1) ^∞  (k/((k^2 +1)^2 +8)) = Σ_(k=1) ^∞  (k/(k^4 +2k^2 +9))  = Σ_(k=1) ^∞  (k/((k^2 +3)^2 −(2k)^2 )) = Σ_(k=1) ^∞  (k/((k^2 +2k+3)(k^2 −2k+3)))  = (1/4)Σ_(k=1) ^∞  (1/(k^2 −2k+3)) − (1/(k^2 +2k+3))  = (1/4) [ (1/2)−(1/6)+(1/3)+(1/6)−(1/(18))+... ] , telescopic series  = (1/4)((1/2)+(1/3))= (5/(24))
$$\mathrm{If}\:\underset{\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\:\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\left(\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{8}}\:=\:\underset{\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\:\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{4}} +\mathrm{2k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{9}} \\ $$$$=\:\underset{\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\:\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\left(\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{3}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} −\left(\mathrm{2k}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }\:=\:\underset{\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\:\frac{\mathrm{k}}{\left(\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2k}+\mathrm{3}\right)\left(\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2k}+\mathrm{3}\right)} \\ $$$$=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\underset{\mathrm{k}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2k}+\mathrm{3}}\:−\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{k}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2k}+\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\:\left[\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{6}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{6}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{18}}+…\:\right]\:,\:\mathrm{telescopic}\:\mathrm{series} \\ $$$$=\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\right)=\:\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{24}} \\ $$
