Series expansion of $\text{Li}_3(1-x)$ at $x \sim 0$
My question is simple, but maybe hard to answer. I would like to have a series expansion for $\text{Li}_3 (1-x)$ at $x \sim 0$ in the following form:
$$\text{Li}_3 (1-x) = \sum_{n=0} c_n x^n + \log x \...

Relations connecting values of the polylogarithm $\operatorname{Li}_n$ at rational points
The polylogarithm is defined by the series
$$\operatorname{Li}_n(x)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{x^k}{k^n}.$$
There are relations connecting values of the polylogarithm at certain rational points in the ...
