Remarkable logarithmic integral $\int_0^1 \frac{\log^2 (1-x) \log^2 x \log^3(1+x)}{x}dx$
We have the following result ($\text{Li}_{n}$ being the polylogarithm):
$$\tag{*}\small{ \int_0^1 \log^2 (1-x) \log^2 x \log^3(1+x) \frac{dx}{x} = -168 \text{Li}_5(\frac{1}{2}) \zeta (3)+96 \text{Li}...

Conjectural closed-form of $\int_0^1 \frac{\log^n (1-x) \log^{n-1} (1+x)}{1+x} dx$
Let $$I_n = \int_0^1 \frac{\log^n (1-x) \log^{n-1} (1+x)}{1+x} dx$$
In a recently published article, $I_n$ are evaluated for $n\leq 6$:
$$\begin{aligned}I_1 &= \frac{\log ^2(2)}{2}-\frac{\pi ^2}{...

Patterns for the polylogarithm $\rm{Li}_m\big(\tfrac12\big)$ and Nielsen polylogarithm $S_{n,p}\big(\tfrac12\big)$?
The polylogarithm $\rm{Li}_m\big(\tfrac12\big)$ has closed-forms known for $m=1,2,3$. It seems this triad pattern extends to the Nielsen generalized logarithm $S_{n,p}\,\big(\tfrac12\big)$ for $n=0,1,...

More on the log sine integral $\int_0^{\pi }\theta ^{3}\log^{3}\left ( 2\sin\frac{\theta }{2} \right )\mathrm{d}\theta$
I. In this post, the OP asks about the particular log sine integral,
$$\mathrm{Ls}_{7}^{\left ( 3 \right )} =-\int_{0}^{\pi }\theta ^{3}\log^{3}\left ( 2\sin\frac{\theta }{2} \right )\,\mathrm{d}\...

How to solve this summation (Lerch Transcendent)?
How is it possible to deduce the closed form of the following?
$$\sum_{i = 0}^{n - 1} \frac{2^i}{n - i} = ?$$
