Prove $\int_{0}^{1} \frac{k^{\frac34}}{(1-k^2)^\frac38} K(k)\text{d}k=\frac{\pi^2}{12}\sqrt{5+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } }$

The paper mentioned a proposition: $$ \int_{0}^{1} \frac{k^{\frac34}}{(1-k^2)^\frac38} K(k)\text{d}k=\frac{\pi^2}{12}\sqrt{5+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } }. $$ Its equivalent is $$ \int_{0}^{\infty}\vartheta_2(...

Finding the sum of a series using a Fourier series

I am stuck on how to calculate the value of the following sum: $\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n}{2n+1}$ I am aware that you need to find the corresponding function whose Fourier series is represented ...

How to find the sum of this infinite series

I am not sure how to evaluate the infinite sum: $$\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{1}{(2n+1)^6}$$ Apparently, I can shift it to $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{(2n-1)^6}$$ which is supposed to be a well known sum ...

On the abscissa of convergence of a Dirichlet series.

I am trying to find the abscissa of convergence of the Dirichlet series for the arithmetic function $|\mu(n)|$. I have managed to show that $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{|\mu(n)|}{n^s}=\frac{\zeta(s)}{\...

Uniform convergence about Dirichlet integral $f(s):=\int_1^\infty\frac{a(x)}{x^s}\,dx =\lim\limits_{T\to\infty}\int_1^T\frac{a(x)}{x^s}\,dx$

On page 87 of Ingham's book: The Distribution Of Prime Numbers, the author asserts the following results, but does not give proof. Let $a(x)$ be a bounded and integrable function over any finite ...

Errors are decreasing in series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty(-1)^n/n^4$?

Let $v=\sum_{n=1}^\infty(-1)^n/n^4$ ($v$ for "value"), let $S=(\sum_{n=1}^m(-1)^n/n^4)_{m\in\mathbb Z_{\ge1}}$ be the partial sums, and let $e=(|S_n-v|)_{n\in\mathbb Z_{\ge1}}$ be the errors....

Establish a lower bound for the generalized alternating harmonic series

I'm given the following series:$$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}{(-1)^{n-1}\over n^p}$$ I need to show that the sum is greater than $1/2$ for every $p > 0$. For $p \ge1$ this is obvious, as it follows by ...

uniform convergence of Dirichlet eta function

For any $x\in\mathbb{R}$, define a series $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^{n-1}}{n^{x}},$$ which is called the Dirichlet eta function from the complex analysis. It converges pointwise on $(0,\infty)$ ...

On the sets of sums $\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty\frac{a_n}{n^s}$ with $(a_n)$ periodic and integer valued, for different values of $s$ natural number

For every positive integer $s$, let $A_s$ denote the set of the sums of the converging series $\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty\frac{a_n}{n^s}$ for every periodic sequence of integers $(a_n)$. Then each $A_s$...

Prove that this type of alternating series admits this supremum.

Let $a_k\geq 0$ be a decreasing to zero numerical sequence. How how can we prove this inequality ? $$ \left|\sum_{k=n+1}^{\infty} (-1)^k a_k\right| \leq |a_n|$$ It may have something to do with ...

Convergence of product of series to zeta function

Consider the product of the following two partial series: $$\left[\sum_{n=1}^{N} \frac{1}{n^s}\right] \cdot \left[\sum_{d=1}^{N} \frac{1}{d^{s^*}}\right]$$ When $\mathbf{Re}(s) > 1$, then in the ...

Is $\sum\limits_{n = 1}^\infty (-1)^n\frac{H_n}{n}=\frac{6\ln^2(2)-\pi^2}{12}$ a valid identity? [duplicate]

A while ago I asked a question about an identity that I found while playing with series involving harmonic numbers. However, since the methods I used were not the focus of my question, I never ...
