I actually looked at one of my Questions (posted at MATH.SE) again and found a formula which actually Ramanujan had discovered.

Ramanujan: If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are positive numbers such that $\alpha \cdot \beta = \pi^{2}$ then, $$\alpha \cdot \sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{n}{e^{2n\alpha} -1} + \beta \cdot\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{n}{e^{2n\beta}-1} = \frac{\alpha+\beta}{24} -\frac{1}{4}$$

I actually heard that this result is not true. I would like to know where the mistake is and whether something can be rectified in this proof so that, my above problem can be summed by using this result.

• I would also like to know the Intuitive idea behind discovering such mysterious formulas.
