Integral involving the logarithm

$begingroup$


Let $p$ and $q$ be two positive integers, I wonder if the following integral admits a closed-form and if yeah so in which way it should be worked out.



$$int_{0}^{1}frac{ln(1-x^p)ln(1+x^q)}{x^{p+q}}dx,=sum_{n,kgeq1}frac{(-1)^n}{nk(np+kq+1-p-q)}$$

Here is a partial answer in terms of an infinite series. After expanding both logarithms into their respective Maclaurin series, integrating term by term and applying a certain series representation of the digamma function, I've obtained this series:
$$int_0^1 frac{log(1-x^p)log(1+x^q)}{x^{p+q}},dx=sum_{kge 0} (-1)^{k+1} frac{psi^{(0)}left(frac{kq+1}{p}right)+gamma}{(k+1)(kq-p+1)}$$
Where $psi^{(0)}$ $(=Gamma'/Gamma )$ is the digamma function and $gamma$ ($=lim_{ntoinfty} H_n-log n$) is the Euler-Mascheroni constant. I'm not sure how to simplify this sum, which appears especially challenging because of the appearance of digamma function.



Checking the basic case $q=0$ yields
$$int_0^1 frac{log(1-x^p)}{x^p},dx=frac{psi^{(0)}(1/p)+gamma}{p-1}$$
Which seems to agree with some of the computational verifications I've done.
