Riemann Zeta function of even numbers

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the Riemann Zeta function for even integers, specifically the formula \(\zeta(2n) = \frac{\pi^{2n}}{m}\). Participants provide values of \(m\) for various natural numbers \(n\), but express difficulty in identifying a consistent pattern among these values. The provided values for \(m\) range from simple integers to complex fractions, with no clear formula emerging from the examples. One participant suggests consulting Wikipedia for further insights. The conversation highlights the complexity of deriving \(m\) in relation to \(n\).

Given that

\zeta (2n)=\frac{{\pi}^{2n}}{m}

Then how do you find m with respect to n where n is a natural number.

For

n=1, m=6
n=2, m=90
n=3, m=945
n=4, m=9450
n=5, m=93555
n=6, m=\frac{638512875}{691}
n=7, m=\frac{18243225}{2}
n=8, m=\frac{325641566250}{3617}
n=9, m=\frac{38979295480125}{43867}
n=10, m=\frac{1531329465290625}{174611}

But I don't see any pattern.

Thanks.

I would find it by consulting wikipedia.
 
Thanks.
 
Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'
I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...
