Abstract
Euler discovered a formula for expressing the value of the Riemann zeta function for all even positive integer arguments. A closed-form expression for the Riemann zeta function for all odd integer arguments, based on the values of the Dirichlet beta function, euler numbers and pi, reveals a new evidence about the self-recursive nature of Riemann zeta function at odd integers. We demonstrate for the first time that the Riemann zeta function at odd integers always produces a recurrence relation that is self-recursive.
