How to extend this sum involving generalized harmonic numbers?

It is well-known since Euler that the Generalized harmonic numbers, defined for $n\in\mathbb N$ by $$H_n^{(r)}=\sum_{k=1}^n\frac1{k^r},$$ can be naturally extended for non integer $n$ in terms of ...

Why these surprising proportionalities of integrals involving odd zeta values?

Inspired by the well known $$\int_0^1\frac{\ln(1-x)\ln x}x\mathrm dx=\zeta(3)$$ and the integral given here (writing $\zeta_r:=\zeta(r)$ for easier reading)$$\int_0^1\frac{\ln^3(1-x)\ln x}x\mathrm dx=...

Are these two new ways of representing odd zeta values as integrals known?

This is inspired by the same beautiful integral expression for $\zeta(3)$ as this question, but goes in a slightly different direction. Writing the original integral in the form $$\int_0^1\frac{x(1-x)}...

Are there integral representations of the Mertens constant?

It is well-known that the Euler constant $$\gamma=\lim\limits_{n\to \infty}\biggl( \sum\limits_{k\le n}\dfrac{1}{k}-\ln{n}\biggr ) $$ has a bunch of integral representations, e.g. $$\gamma=-\int\...
