Abstract: small In this paper, we define $q$-analogues of Dirichlet's beta function at positive integers, which can be written as $$ for $sin{N}^{\ast }$, where $q$ is a complex number such that $|q|<1$ and $chi$ is the non trivial Dirichlet character modulo 4. For odd $s$, these expressions are connected with the automorphic world, in particular with Eisenstein series of level 4. From this, we derive through Nesterenko's work the transcendance of the numbers $$ for $q$ algebraic such that $0<|q|<1$. Our main result concerns the nature of the numbers $$: we give a lower bound for the dimension of the vector space over $Q$ spanned by $$, where $$ and $A$ is an even integer. As consequences, for $$, on the one hand there is an infinity of irrational numbers among $$, and on the other hand at least one of the numbers $$ is irrational.
