The Zeta Quotient $\zeta(3)/ \pi^3$ is Irrational

General Mathematics 2019-07-30 v2

Abstract

This note proves that the first odd zeta value does not have a closed form formula ζ(3)rπ3\zeta(3)\ne r \pi^3 for any rational number rQr \in \mathbb{Q}. Furthermore, assuming the irrationality of the second odd zeta value ζ(5)\zeta(5), it is shown that ζ(5)rπ5\zeta(5)\ne r\pi^5 for any rational number rQr \in \mathbb{Q}.
