SPECIAL VALUES OF JACOBI THETA FUNCTION

In this post we well prove the following results



\begin{aligned} &\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-\pi n^{2}}=\frac{\sqrt[4]{\pi}}{\Gamma\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)} \\ &\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-2 \pi n^{2}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{4-2 \sqrt{2}}} \frac{\sqrt[4]{\pi}}{\Gamma\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)} \\ &\sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} e^{-\pi n^{2} / 2}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2-\sqrt{2}}} \frac{\sqrt[4]{\pi}}{\Gamma\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)} \end{aligned}

       Today We will compute the following integral following the same ideas of the previous post : Recall (see here ) (1) Integrating both sides of (1)  from 0 to Computing    Recall (see here ) Letting we obtain We are looking for the Imaginary part of the equation above: Computing the quantities: The Glaisher function We know that (see here ): If we integrate from 0 to x we obtain Integrating from 0 to x we obtain
