This redefinition of the Dirichlet beta function, based on the polygamma function for some special values, provides a general method for obtaining all special constants associated with Dirichlet beta function. We also show various new and fundamental relations between the polygamma function, Riemann zeta, the even-indexed euler numbers, the Dirichlet beta functions in a way never seen or imagined before.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-10-19T22:50:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dirichlet beta function", "riemann zeta function", "fundamental relations", "euler numbers", "positive integer" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1210.5559I" } } }
