The Dirichlet lambda function $\lambda(s)$ is defined for $\mathrm{Re}(s) > 1$ by \[ \lambda(s) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{(2n+1)^s}. \] This function was initially studied by Euler on the real line, where he denoted it by $N(s)$. In…

Dating back to Euler, in classical analysis and number theory, the Hurwitz zeta function $$ \zeta(z,q)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(n+q)^{z}}, $$ the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(z)$, the generalized Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(q)$, the…

By using the related results in the WZ theory, a new (as far as I know) formula for the values of Dirichlet beta function $\beta (s) = \sum\limits_{n = 1}^{+ \infty} {\frac{(-1)^{n - 1}}{(2n - 1)^s}} $ (where $Re(s) > 0$) at odd positive…

Dirichlet's $L$-functions are natural extensions of the Riemann zeta function. In this paper we first give a brief survey of Ap\'ery-like series for some special values of the zeta function and certain $L$-functions. Then, we establish two…
We consider two sequences $a(n)$ and $b(n)$, $1\leq n<\infty$, generated by Dirichlet series of the forms $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{a(n)}{\lambda_n^{s}}\qquad\text{and}\qquad \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{b(n)}{\mu_n^{s}},$$ satisfying a…
We construct a two-parameter complex function $\eta_{\kappa \nu}:\mathbb{C}\to \mathbb{C}$, $\kappa \in (0, \infty)$, $\nu\in (0,\infty)$ that we call a holomorphic nonlinear embedding and that is given by a double series which is…

Functions satisfying the functional equation \begin{align*} \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} (-1)^r f(x+ry, ny) = f(x,y), \quad \text{for any positive odd integer $n$}, \end{align*} are named the alternating invariant functions. Examples of such functions…
