Using Contour Integral to find the value of $\int_{-1}^{+1}\frac{\ln{(1+t)}}{t}dt$
$\newcommand{LogI}{\operatorname{Li}}$
We know that the value of $\LogI_{2}(-1)$ is -$\frac{\pi^2}{12}$ and $\LogI_{2}(1)$ is $\frac{\pi^2}{6}$. The value of the polylogarithms has already been ...

Simplification of a trilogarithm of a complex argument
Is it possible to simplify the following expression?
$$\large\Im\,\operatorname{Li}_3\left(-e^{\xi\,\left(\sqrt3-\sqrt{-1}\right)-\frac{\pi^2}{12\,\xi}\left(\sqrt3+\sqrt{-1}\right)}\right)$$
where
$$\...
