Arakawa–Kaneko zeta function

In mathematics, the Arakawa–Kaneko zeta function is a generalisation of the Riemann zeta function which generates special values of the polylogarithm function.

Definition

The zeta function $\xi _{k}(s)$ is defined by

\xi _{k}(s)={\frac {1}{\Gamma (s)}}\int _{0}^{+\infty }{\frac {t^{s-1}}{e^{t}-1}}\mathrm {Li} _{k}(1-e^{-t})\,dt\

where Li_k is the k-th polylogarithm

\mathrm {Li} _{k}(z)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac {z^{n}}{n^{k}}}\ .

Properties

The integral converges for $\Re (s)>0$ and $\xi _{k}(s)$ has analytic continuation to the whole complex plane as an entire function.

The special case k = 1 gives $\xi _{1}(s)=s\zeta (s+1)$ where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta-function.

The special case s = 1 remarkably also gives $\xi _{k}(1)=\zeta (k+1)$ where $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta-function.

The values at integers are related to multiple zeta function values by

\xi _{k}(m)=\zeta _{m}^{*}(k,1,\ldots ,1)

where

\zeta _{n}^{*}(k_{1},\dots ,k_{n-1},k_{n})=\sum _{0<m_{1}<m_{2}<\cdots <m_{n}}{\frac {1}{m_{1}^{k_{1}}\cdots m_{n-1}^{k_{n-1}}m_{n}^{k_{n}}}}\ .

gollark: And how do I make the initial `request` nonblocking?

gollark: `http_response` only appears in the code in what looks like one comment.

gollark: It doesn't seem to be.

gollark: There seems to be an `internet_ready` signal, I'll check if that's relevant to HTTP.

gollark: I have some code doing this```lualocal function fetch(url, data) local res, err = net.request(url, json.encode(data), { ["Content-Type"] = "application/json" }) if not res then error(url .. " error: " .. err) end local out = {} while true do local chunk, err = res.read() if err then error(url .. " error: " .. err) end if chunk then table.insert(out, chunk) else return table.concat(out) end endend```but it never appears to `computer.pullSignal` at all, so my accursed bare-metal multithreading thing™ doesn't work.
