Abstract
By using two basic formulas for the digamma function, we derive a variety
of series that involve as coefficients the values (2n+1), n=1,2,⋯, of the
Riemann-zeta function. A number of these have a combinatorial flavor which we also
express in a trignometric form for special choices of the underlying variable. We
briefly touch upon their use in the representation of solutions of the wave equation.
