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 ...

Is there a closed-form for $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{n}{n^3+1}$?
I'm reading a book on complex variables (The Theory of Functions of a Complex Variable, Thorn 1953) and the following is shown:
Let $f(z)$ be holomorphic and single valued in $\mathbb{C}$ except at a ...
