Legendre chi function

In mathematics, the Legendre chi function is defined as

\chi_n(z) = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{z^{2k+1}}{(2k+1)^n}.

The discrete fourier transform of the Legendre chi function with respect to the order n is the Hurwitz zeta function (Cvijovic).

The Legendre chi function is a special case of the Lerch Transcendent, and is given by

\chi_n(z)=2^{-n}z\,\Phi (z^2,n,1/2)\,.
