We present some simple proofs of the well-known expressions for \[ \zeta(2k) = \sum_{m=1}^\infty \frac{1}{m^{2k}}, \qquad \beta(2k+1) = \sum_{m=0}^\infty \frac{(-1)^m}{(2m+1)^{2k+1}}, \] where $k = 1,2,3,\dots$, in terms of the Bernoulli…

An alternative formula is presented for the evaluation of the zeta function values $\zeta(2k)$ without the need for Bernoulli numbers. Our formula is recursive, and improves the efficiency with which we can calculate large values of the…

We establish a connection between a function and a series representation using a similar technique with that that Euler used to solve the Basel problem. Our result concerns a more general series from which one can obtain $\zeta(2k)$ as a…

This paper presents a new approach to evaluating the special values of the Dirichlet beta function, $\beta(2k+1)$, where $k$ is any nonnegative integer. Our approach relies on some properties of the Euler numbers and polynomials, and uses…

In this note we give the most elementary method (as far as we know) to express $\zeta(2n+1)$ in terms of $\{\zeta(2k)|k\geq 1\}$. The method is based on only some elementary works by Leonhard Euler, so it is very instructive to non-experts…

In $1735$ Euler \cite{1} proved that for each positive integer $k$, the series $\zeta(2k) = \sum_{\ell=1}^{\infty} \ell^{-2k}$ converges to a rational multiple of $\pi^{2k}$. Many demonstrations of this fact are now known, and Euler's…

Using Parseval's identity for the Fourier coefficients of $x^k$, we provide a new proof that $\zeta(2k)=\dfrac{(-1)^{k+1}B_{2k}(2\pi)^{2k}}{2(2k)!}$.

Using a polylogarithmic identity, we express the values of $\zeta$ at odd integers $2n+1$ as integrals over unit $n-$dimensional hypercubes of simple functions involving products of logarithms. We also prove a useful property of those…

We propose a relation between values of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta$ and a family of integrals. This results in an integral representation for $\zeta(2p)$, where $p$ is a positive integer, and an expression of $\zeta(2p+1)$ involving…

The aim of this article is to generalize in several variables some formulae for Eisenstein series in one variable. For example the formula $2\zeta(2k) = (2\pi)^{2k} \frac{B_{2k}}{(2k)!} = Res_{z=0}(\frac{1}{z^{2k}(1-e^z)})$ for the values…

It is commonly known that $\zeta(2k) = q_{k}\frac{\zeta(2k + 2)}{\pi^2}$ with known rational numbers $q_{k}$. In this work we construct recurrence relations of the form $\sum_{k = 1}^{\infty}r_{k}\frac{\zeta(2k + 1)}{\pi^{2k}} = 0$ and show…
