COMMENTS

Also denominators in expansion of Psi(x).

zeta(2n)/(2i * ( ln(1-i)-ln(1+i) ))^(2n) = zeta(2n)/(-i*ln(-1))^(2n) [From Eric Desbiaux (moongerms(AT)wanadoo.fr), Dec 12 2008]

a(0)=2 [From Artur Jasinski (grafix(AT)csl.pl), Mar 11 2010]

a(n) is always divisible by 3 (by the Von Staudt-Clausen theorem, see A002445).

FORMULA

Sum[2/(n^2 + 1), {n, 1, Infinity}] = Pi*Coth[Pi]-1. 2*Sum[(-1)^(k + 1)/n^(2*k), {k, 1, Infinity}] = 2/(n^2+1). - Shmuel Spiegel (shmualm(AT)hotmail.com), Aug 13 2001

zeta(2n) = Sum_{k >= 1} k^(-2n) = (-1)^(n-1)*B_{2n}*2^(2n-1)*Pi^(2n)/(2n)!.

a(n)=-A046988(n)*A010050(n)*A002445(n)/(A009117(n)*A000367(n))

a(n)=sqrt(denominator(sum_{i=1...infinity} A000005(i)/i^2n)) - Enrique Pérez Herrero, Jan 19 2012.

EXAMPLE

1/6, 1/90, 1/945, 1/9450, 1/93555, 691/638512875, 2/18243225, 3617/325641566250,...

zeta(2) = Pi^2/6, zeta(4) = Pi^4/90, zeta(6) = Pi^6/945, Pi^8/9450, P{i^10/93555, 691*Pi^12/638512875, ...

In Maple, series(Psi(x),x,20) gives -1*x^(-1) + (-gamma) + 1/6*Pi^2*x + (-Zeta(3))*x^2 + 1/90*Pi^4*x^3 + (-Zeta(5))*x^4 + 1/945*Pi^6*x^5 + (-Zeta(7))*x^6 + 1/9450*Pi^8*x^7 + (-Zeta(9))*x^8 + 1/93555*Pi^10*x^9 + ...
