Riemann Zeta Function zeta(4)


zeta(4) is the value of the Riemann zeta function at 4, given by

zeta(4)=sum_(k=1)^(infty)1/(k^4)
(1)
=(pi^4)/(90)
(2)
=1.082323233711138...
(3)

(OEIS A013662).

A binomial sum identity is

 zeta(4)=(36)/(17)sum_(k=1)^infty1/(k^4(2k; k)),
(4)

where (2k; k) is a binomial coefficient (Borwein and Bradley 1996).
