Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

FORMULA
chi3(k) = Kronecker(-3, k); chi3(k) is 0, 1, -1 when k reduced modulo 3 is 0, 1, 2, respectively; chi3 is A102283 (A049347 shifted).
Series: L(3, chi3) = Sum_{k>=1} chi3(k) k^{-3} = 1 - 1/2^3 + 1/4^3 - 1/5^3 + 1/7^3 - 1/8^3 + 1/10^3 - 1/11^3 + ...
Closed form: L(3, chi3) = 4 Pi^3/(81 sqrt(3)).
Equals 1 + Sum_{k>=1} ( 1/(3*k+1)^3 - 1/(3*k-1)^3 ). - Sean A. Irvine, Aug 17 2021
Equals Product_{p prime} (1 - Kronecker(-3, p)/p^3)^(-1) = Product_{p prime != 3} (1 + (-1)^(p mod 3)/p^3)^(-1). - Amiram Eldar, Nov 06 2023
