The Clausen functions : for even and for odd — the imaginary or real part of . Provided by `@enumeratio/analytic`.

ClausenCl(n, θ)the Clausen function of integer order and real .

Domain: Special functions

Details
  • is the classical Clausen function; , infinite at .
  • Parity alternates with the order (DLMF §25.12(ii), mpmath's `clsin` / `clcos`): even gives the odd, -periodic sine series, odd the even cosine series, so that or respectively. See PolyLog.
  • Special values: (Catalan's constant), , , , , . See DirichletEta, DirichletBeta.
  • peaks at with value , the Gieseking constant's companion; the volume of the ideal regular tetrahedron is .
  • Wolfram has no Clausen head: there it is spelled , which is how the oracle checks are phrased. Numerically, the polylogarithm's expansion at the unit circle (DLMF 25.12.12) with reduced into .

Cl_n cuts Li_n(e^{iθ}) in two by parity: the even orders are the sine series (its imaginary part), the odd orders the cosine series (its real part).

clsin(n, θ) for even n, clcos(n, θ) for odd n. Wolfram has no head; Im/Re PolyLog[n, E^(I θ)] instead.
