Abstract

We provide a general theorem for evaluating trigonometric Dirichlet series of the form ∑n≥1f(πnτ)ns\sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{f (\pi n \tau)}{n^s}, where ff is an arbitrary product of the elementary trigonometric functions, τ\tau a real quadratic irrationality and ss an integer of the appropriate parity. This unifies a number of evaluations considered by many authors, including Lerch, Ramanujan and Berndt. Our approach is based on relating the series to combinations of derivatives of Eichler integrals and polylogarithms.
