Four infinite series involving Riemann zeta function

Can you provide a proof for at least one of the claims given below? It is known that $\pi=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{3^n-1}{4^n} \cdot \zeta(n+1)$ where $\zeta$ denotes Riemann zeta ...

proving inequality in Riemann zeta function

Recently I have made some interesting observations on the limit $$\lim_{k\rightarrow \infty}{\sum_{n=1}^{k}{\dfrac{(-1)^{n-1}\biggl( \cos \left(\beta\ln(n)\right)\biggr)}{n^{\alpha}}}}. $$ When this ...

Is anything known about the series $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} x^{\sqrt{n}} $?

It's well known that there are a shocking number of identities for the usual Jacobi theta function $$ \theta_3(x) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty} x^{n^2}. $$ So I wanted to turn my attention to slowly ...

On the Dirichlet series for $1/\zeta(s)$ for real $s$ and the zeros of zeta

For $\Re(s)>1$, it is well known that $$\frac{1}{\zeta(s)} = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\mu(n)}{n^s}$$ where $\mu$ denotes the Mobius function and $\zeta$ is the Riemann zeta function. I have heard ...

Example of an integer $n_0$ such that $1+\sum_{k=2}^{n_0} \zeta(k)^s=0$ has repeated roots

After I was studying the exercise Problem 4.20 from [1] I was inspired to ask about next problem, where $\zeta(k)$ denotes, for integers $k>1$, particular values of the Riemann zeta function. And $...

On the series $\sum_{\rho}x^{\rho}\Gamma(\rho)/\Gamma(\rho+k),\,0<k<1$

Let $x>1$ be a real number. For a work I need to find an uniform estimation of the series the series $$\sum_{\rho}x^{\rho}\frac{\Gamma\left(\rho\right)}{\Gamma\left(\rho+k\right)}\tag{1}$$ where $\...

Series of the inverse quadratic trinomial

Maybe it's a very simple question, but I have a problem with the following series $$\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^2+pn+q},$$ where $p, q \in \mathbb{R}$. I know about five ways how to calculate ...
