In [1] we derived a generalization of Kronecker’s first limit formula. Our generalization was a limit formula for the Eisenstein series for an arbitrary cusp of a Fuchsian group Γ of the first kind operating on the complex upper half-plane H. In that work, we introduced Dedekind sums associated to the principal congruence subgroups Γ(N) of the elliptic modular group. The work of our preceding paper suggests a natural question: Is there a generalization of Kronecker’s second limit formula to the setting of a general Fuchsian group of the first kind? The answer to this question is the subject of this paper.
