The function Q(x) := n≥1 (1/n) sin(x/n) was introduced by Hardy and Littlewood [10] in their study of Lambert summability, and since then it has attracted attention of many researchers. In particular, this function has made a surprising appearance in the recent disproof by Alzer, Berg and Koumandos [1] of a conjecture by Clark and Ismail [2]. More precisely, Alzer et. al. have shown that the Clark and Ismail conjecture is true if and only if Q(x) ≥ −π/2 for all x > 0. It is known that Q(x) is unbounded in the domain x ∈ (0, ∞) from above and below, which disproves the Clark and Ismail conjecture, and at the same time raises a natural question of whether we can exhibit at least one point x for which Q(x) < −π/2. This turns out to be a surprisingly hard problem, which leads to an interesting and non-trivial question of how to approximate Q(x) for very large values of x. In this paper we continue the work started by Gautschi in [7] and develop several approximations to Q(x) for large values of x. We use these approximations to find an explicit value of x for which Q(x) < −π/2.
