Modular transformation formula for certain series (Q2744281)

The authors give a new analytic proof of the reviewer's transformation formula for Lambert series involving generalized Dedekind sums. They do not mention that an elementary proof was given by the reviewer [J. Number Theory 15, 14-24 (1982; Zbl 0488.10013)]. The formula involves the Riemann zeta-function at odd integers \(\geq 3\), and they specialize it to show that NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\zeta(3)= \frac{\pi^3}{15\sqrt{3}}+ 2\sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^{n-1} \frac{\sigma_3(n)}{n^3} e^{-n\pi\sqrt{3}},NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(\sigma_3(n)= \sum_{d|n}d^3\). Taking one term in the series gives the estimate NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\frac{\pi^3}{15\sqrt{3}}< \zeta(3)< \frac{\pi^3}{15\sqrt{3}}+ 2e^{-\pi\sqrt{3}}.NEWLINE\]
