Iseki's Formula

DOWNLOAD Mathematica NotebookDownload Wolfram Notebook

Let R[z]>0, 0<=alpha,beta<=1, and

Lambda(alpha,beta,z)=sum_(r=0)^infty[lambda((r+alpha)z-ibeta)+lambda((r+1-alpha)z+ibeta)],
(1)

where

lambda(x)=-ln(1-e^(-2pix))
(2)
=sum_(m=1)^(infty)(e^(-2pimx))/m.
(3)

Then if either 0<=alpha<=1 and 0<beta<1, or 0<alpha<1 and 0<=beta<=1,

Lambda(alpha,beta,z)=Lambda(1-beta,alpha,z^(-1))-pizsum_(n=0)^2(2; n)(iz)^(-n)B_(2-n)(alpha)B_n(beta),
(4)

where B_k(x) is a Bernoulli polynomial, and the second term on the right side can be written explicitly as

-piz(alpha^2alpha+1/6)+pi/z(beta^2-beta+1/6)+2pii(alpha-1/2)(beta-1/2).
