X Title: Dirichlet Beta Function -- from Wolfram MathWorld

Description: The Dirichlet beta function is defined by the sum beta(x) = sum_(n=0)^(infty)(-1)^n(2n+1)^(-x) (1) = 2^(-x)Phi(-1,x,1/2), (2) where Phi(z,s,a) is the Lerch transcendent. The beta function can be written in terms of the Hurwitz zeta function zeta(x,a) by beta(x)=1/(4^x)[zeta(x,1/4)-zeta(x,3/4)]. (3) The beta function can be defined over the whole complex plane using analytic continuation, beta(1-z)=(2/pi)^zsin(1/2piz)Gamma(z)beta(z), (4) where Gamma(z) is the gamma function....
