Question Number 204569 by pticantor last updated on 21/Feb/24
find the value of I=∫_0 ^(+∞) ln(1+e^(−x) )dx nowing that Σ_(n=1) ^(+∞) (1/n^2 )=(π^2 /6)
$$\boldsymbol{{find}}\:\boldsymbol{{the}}\:\boldsymbol{{value}}\:\boldsymbol{{of}}\: \\ $$$$\boldsymbol{{I}}=\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{+\infty} \boldsymbol{{ln}}\left(\mathrm{1}+\boldsymbol{{e}}^{−\boldsymbol{{x}}} \right)\boldsymbol{{dx}}\:\boldsymbol{{nowing}}\:\boldsymbol{{that}}\: \\ $$$$\underset{{n}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{+\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\boldsymbol{{n}}^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{\pi^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{6}} \\ $$

∀x∈R_+ ,e^(−x) <1 ln(1+e^(−x) )=Σ_(n≥0) (((−1)^n )/(n+1)) e^(−(n+1)x) ∫_0 ^∞ ln(1+e^(−x) )dx=Σ_(n≥0) (((−1)^n )/(n+1))∫_0 ^∞ e^(−(n+1)x) dx =Σ_(n≥0) (((−1)^n )/((n+1)^2 ))=η(2)=(1−2^(1−2) )ζ(2)=(π^2 /(12))
$$\forall\mathrm{x}\in\mathbb{R}_{+} ,\mathrm{e}^{−\mathrm{x}} <\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{ln}\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{e}^{−\mathrm{x}} \right)=\underset{\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{0}} {\sum}\frac{\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{n}} }{\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}}\:\mathrm{e}^{−\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\mathrm{x}} \: \\ $$$$\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\infty} \mathrm{ln}\left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{e}^{−\mathrm{x}} \right)\mathrm{dx}=\underset{\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{0}} {\sum}\frac{\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{n}} }{\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}}\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\infty} \mathrm{e}^{−\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\mathrm{x}} \mathrm{dx} \\ $$$$=\underset{\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{0}} {\sum}\frac{\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{n}} }{\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }=\eta\left(\mathrm{2}\right)=\left(\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}} \right)\zeta\left(\mathrm{2}\right)=\frac{\pi^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{12}} \\ $$

pls how do you manage to have (1−2^(1−2) )ζ(2)?

Σ_(n≥0) (((−1)^n )/((n+1)^2 ))=Σ_(n≥0) (1/((2n+1)^2 ))−(1/(4n^2 )) =Σ((1/n^2 )−(1/((2n)^2 ))−(1/(4n^2 )))=Σ(1/n^2 )−(1/2)Σ(1/n^2 )=ζ(2)−(1/2)ζ(2)=(1−2^(1−2) )ζ(2)
$$\underset{\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{0}} {\sum}\frac{\left(−\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{n}} }{\left(\mathrm{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }=\underset{\mathrm{n}\geqslant\mathrm{0}} {\sum}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left(\mathrm{2n}+\mathrm{1}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4n}^{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$$$=\Sigma\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{2}} }−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left(\mathrm{2n}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4n}^{\mathrm{2}} }\right)=\Sigma\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{2}} }−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\Sigma\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{n}^{\mathrm{2}} }=\zeta\left(\mathrm{2}\right)−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\zeta\left(\mathrm{2}\right)=\left(\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{1}−\mathrm{2}} \right)\zeta\left(\mathrm{2}\right) \\ $$
