Apr 18 at 5:00 comment added The Amplitwist Reposting a link mentioned in a previous comment so that it appears in the "Linked" questions list: Can this nested sum be expressed in terms of generalized harmonic numbers and the cycle index polynomials of the symmetric groups?

Feb 16, 2011 at 10:14 comment added Dror Speiser @Mariano: aside from the fact that I remembered seeing the identity on that page a few years back, finding it again was routine: google "Riemann Zeta Function", second hit, skimming to about mid page, and there, but not over - first reference Stark, jstor, and he references Klamkin, as did David below. As can be seen from the timestamps, this was done in under 5 minutes (given that I remembered seeing it).
Feb 11, 2011 at 19:26 comment added Mike Spivey This question appears to be related to a recent one of mine: mathoverflow.net/questions/50253. I'm wondering if one of the solutions given there can be used to give another perspective on this result?
