Closed form for $I(b)=int_0^1arctan^bx mathrm{d}x$

Just out of curiosity, I am trying to find a closed form for
$$I(b)=int_0^1arctan^bt mathrm{d}t$$
It converges for real $b>-1$, and behaves a lot like $frac1{1+x}$.



I started out with noting that $$arctan x=frac i2logfrac{1-ix}{1+ix}$$
$$arctan^bx=frac{i^b}{2^b}log^bfrac{1-ix}{1+ix}$$
Which results in $$I(b)=frac{i^b}{2^b}int_0^1log^bfrac{1-it}{1+it}mathrm{d}t$$
Which I do not know how to find.



I did not want to give up, so I found
$$I(1)=int_0^1arctan t mathrm{d}t$$
Using $$int f^{-1}(x)mathrm{d}x=xf^{-1}(x)-(Fcirc f^{-1})(x)$$
We have that
$$I(1)=fracpi4-frac12log2$$



Also, rather trivially, it is easily shown that
$$I(0)=1$$



But I still want to know if there is a closed form for $I(b)$. Can anyone help?



Update:



With the substitution $tan u=t$, we the integral becomes
$$I(b)=int_0^{fracpi4}u^bsec^2u mathrm{d}u$$
Then we note that, for $|x|<frac{pi}2$,
$$tan x=sum_{ngeq1}frac{(-1)^{n-1}4^n(4^n-1)B_{2n}}{(2n)!}x^{2n-1}$$
We differentiate both sides to obtain
$$sec^2x=sum_{ngeq1}frac{(2n-1)(-1)^{n-1}4^n(4^n-1)B_{2n}}{(2n)!}x^{2n-2}$$
And because $[0,fracpi4]subset(frac{-pi}2,frac{pi}2)$, we have that
$$I(b)=sum_{ngeq1}frac{(2n-1)(-1)^{n-1}4^n(4^n-1)B_{2n}}{(2n)!}int_0^{fracpi4}u^{2n+b-2}mathrm{d}u$$
$$I(b)=sum_{ngeq1}frac{(2n-1)(-1)^{n-1}4^n(4^n-1)B_{2n}}{(2n)!(2n+b-1)}bigg(fracpi4bigg)^{2n+b-1}$$
$$I(b)=bigg(fracpi4bigg)^{b-1}sum_{ngeq1}frac{(-1)^{n-1}(2n-1)(4^n-1)B_{2n}}{(2n)!(2n+b-1)}bigg(fracpi2bigg)^{2n}$$
So, do any of you series-wizards out there have any suggestions?

    Interesting problem, for sure ! I bet that $zeta(.)$ and polygamma functions would appear somewhere.

  • This method actually works for any $bin(-1,infty)$, which is the range for which the integral converges. However, you will just have to extend the usual definition of the derivative of non-integer order.

  • This method actually works for any $bin(-1,infty)$, which is the range for which the integral converges. However, you will just have to extend the usual definition of the derivative of non-integer order.
