We develop a unified analytical and dynamical framework for the qualitative study of the one-parameter family of generalized Dirichlet eta functions $\eta_{a}(t)=\sum_{m\ge0}(-1)^{m}(am+1)^{-t}$, $a>0$, $t>0$, which includes the classical…

We derive several identities for the Hurwitz and Riemann zeta functions, the Gamma function, and Dirichlet $L$-functions. They involve a sequence of polynomials $\alpha_k(s)$ whose study was initiated in an earlier paper. The expansions…
