Prove that the equation above is true.
Notation: ζ(⋅) denotes the Riemann Zeta function.
This was found in another mathematics form and it was unanswered there.

Use this expansion,
ln2(1+x)=r=0∑∞r+1Hr(−1)rxr+1
Then it will be left to evaluate the integral
∫01xr+11−xln(x)ln(1−x)dx
This is derivative of beta function.

How will you evaluate the resulting summation?
wow nice one! Do you know how to prove it?
@Pi Han Goh add it to you set

Thanks. Do try it.
Now @Ishan Singh can solve this.. Integral can be written as:
r,s,t≥0∑(r+1)(t+1)(r+s+t+3)2Hr(−1)r
@Mark Hennings could you help us out?
Hint : Convert into derivative of Beta function.

Yup I did that but at some point, I have to take natural logarithm of (-1).
Which is imaginary, but the closed form ain't contain any imaginary term.

No. Take limit. For example this

ln2(1+x) term and afterwards it gets converted into the limit. Another method is to use generating function of Harmonic numbers.

You are referring this ∑n=1∞Hnxn=1−x−ln(1−x) no?
