Fractions of Powers

Statement only · UnsolvedOriginal problem ↗

Any positive real number x can be decomposed into integer and fractional parts x+{x}, where x (the floor function) is an integer, and 0{x}<1.

For positive integers k and n, define the function fk(n)=i=1n{ikn} For example, f5(10)=4.5 and f7(1234)=616.5.

Let S(N)=k=1k oddNn=1Nfk(n) You are given that S(10)=100.5 and S(103)=123687804.

Find S(33557799775533). Give your answer modulo 977676779.
