The Riemann zeta in terms of the dilogarithm

Abstract

We give a representation of the classical Riemann $\zeta$-function in the half plane $\Re s>0$ in terms of a Mellin transform involving the real part of the dilogarithm function with an argument on the unit circle (associated Clausen $G{l}_2$-function). We also derive corresponding representations involving the derivatives of the $G{l}_2$-function. A generalized symmetrized Müntz-type formula is also derived. For a special choice of test functions it connects to our integral representation of the $\zeta$-function, providing also a computation of a concrete Mellin transform. Certain formulae involving series of zeta functions and gamma functions are also derived.
