Closed Forms of Certain Zeta constants?












0












$begingroup$


The Riemann Zeta function $zeta(s)=sum_{n=1}^infty frac{1}{n^s}$ converges for $operatorname{Re}(s)>1$. I am interested in some particular "irrational " values of it such as:





  • $zeta(pi)=1.176241738ldots$,


  • $zeta(e)=1.2690096043ldots$,


  • $zeta(sqrt2)=3.020737679ldots$,

  • $ldots$


Are there closed form representations for these and constants? Are there formulas which consists of these constants?

    The Riemann Zeta Function exists for all complex numbers except for $;z=1;$ ....Perhaps you meant the summatory form $$sum_{n=1}^inftyfrac1{n^s};,;;text{which converges for Re},(s)>1; ?$$

    Yes that. Specially !and @DonAntonio does the Riemann zeta function exists for $0$ too?

    Yes Shivam: for any complex value except $;1;$ .

    In some sense, $zeta(sqrt{2})$ is already a closed form.

There is no reason to suspect that these have a "closed form". There isn't even a known closed form for $zeta(3)$...
