Inverse hyperbolic tangent integral

In this entry we prove the follwoing result, an integral I came across today in this video


\begin{align*} \int_0^1 \frac{\operatorname{arctanh}(x^2)}{x^2}\,dx&=\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\ln(2)}{2} \end{align*}

HARD INTEGRAL - PART II

Image
       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

Fourier series of Loggamma function - Part 2

Image
                        This post is part 2 of this post , where we started to derive the fourier series of the Loggamma function. Today we are going to evaluate the coefficient   and then, put all the pieces together to find the final expression.  Evaluation of   Consider Integrating by parts now observe the following with regards to the limit: therefore (1) Recall now the integral representation of the Digamma function (2) Plugging (2) on the right hand side of (1) (3) Lets now concentrate in the inner integral in blue and break it down in two integrals, namely Lest begin with (4) Now This integral was already evaluated here , therefore (5) Plugging (4) and (5) back in (3), we get (6) We will consider each of these integrals separately To compute     we perform an integration by parts (7) Where in the last line we used the resul...
