One of the greatest experimental mathematicians of all time was also one of the greatest mathematicians of all time, the great Leonhard Euler. Usually he had an uncanny intuition on how many "special cases" one needs before one can…

Euler evaluates the integrals in the title and recognizes a recursion between them, which he then uses to give continued fractions for the log and arctan. The paper is translated from Euler's Latin original into German.

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…

We give explicit evaluations of the linear and non-linear Euler sums of hyperharmonic numbers $h_{n}^{\left( r\right) }$ with reciprocal binomial coefficients. These evaluations enable us to extend closed form formula of Euler sums of…

It is known that there are infinitely many singularities of multiple zeta functions and the special values at non-positive integer points are indeterminate. In order to give a suitable rigorous meaning of the special values there, Furusho,…

This is an English translation of Euler's article "Principia motus fluidorum" in which the Euler equation (in two three dimensions) has been established for the first time in 1752. The actual publication has been delayed by nine years.…

The fact that the double zeta values at n and m can be written as a sum of products of two zeta values and of zeta value at m+n, whenever n+m is odd is due to Euler. We shall show a weak version of this result for the Galois l-adic…

Already in 1734 Euler found a short explicit formula for the value of Riemann zeta function Zeta(s) when the argument s equals a positive integer 2n where n=1,2,3,. No such formula exists for odd positive integer arguments of Zeta. The…

In 2008, Muneta found explicit evaluation of the multiple zeta star value $\zeta^\star(\{3, 1\}^d)$, and in 2013, Yamamoto proved a sum formula for multiple zeta star values on 3-2-1 indices. In this paper, we provide another way of…

Translation of "Methodus succincta summas serierum infinitarum per formulas differentiales investigandi" (1780). Euler wants to represent some given series of functions S(x)=X(x)+X(x+1)+X(x+2)+etc. in a different way. He writes S as a…

Multiple q-zeta values are a 1-parameter generalization (in fact, a q-analog) of the multiple harmonic sums commonly referred to as multiple zeta values. These latter are obtained from the multiple q-zeta values in the limit as q tends to…
