Abstract

The values of the Riemann zeta function at odd positive integers, ζ(2n+1)\zeta(2n+1), are shown to admit a representation proportional to the finite-part of the divergent integral 0t2n1cschtdt\int_0^{\infty} t^{-2n-1} \operatorname{csch}t\,\mathrm{d}t. Integral representations for ζ(2n+1)\zeta(2n+1) are then deduced from the finite-part integral representation. Certain relations between ζ(2n+1)\zeta(2n+1) and ζ(2n+1)\zeta'(2n+1) are likewise deduced, from which integral representations for ζ(2n+1)\zeta'(2n+1) are obtained.
