First Formula using the Digamma Function

Click on the image for a detailed proof

\zeta(s)=\frac{1}{(s-1)}+\frac{\sin(\pi s)}{\pi}\int_{0}^{\infty}x^{-s}\left(\ln(1+x)-\psi(1+x)\right)dx

This is one of the most relevant connections between the Riemann Zeta and the Digamma Function, first published by N.G. De Bruijn in 1937. Its demonstration showcases arguments that are useful through all analytic number theory.
