TITLE: Is there a closed form for the double sum $\sum_{n,k} \frac{1}{\text{lcm}^3 (n,k)}$
QUESTION [5 upvotes]: Is there a closed form for the double sum with least common multiple: $$\sum_{n \geq 1} \sum_{k \geq 1} \frac{1}{\text{lcm}^3 (n,k)}$$

For truncated sums, Mathematica gives:
$$\sum_{n = 1}^{2500} \sum_{k = 1}^{2500} \frac{1}{\text{lcm}^3 (n,k)}=1.707289827$$
$$\sum_{n = 1}^{5000} \sum_{k = 1}^{5000} \frac{1}{\text{lcm}^3 (n,k)}=1.707290976$$
$$\sum_{n = 1}^{10000} \sum_{k = 1}^{10000} \frac{1}{\text{lcm}^3 (n,k)}=1.707291287$$
It's very close to $1+1/ \sqrt{2}$, but not quite.
By the way, how do we prove it converges?

REPLY [5 votes]: For any $m\geq 1$, the number of couples $(n,k)$ such that $\text{lcm}(n,k)=m$ can be easily understood. Assuming that the factorization of $m$ is given by $p_1^{\alpha_1}\cdots p_k^{a_k}$, there are $(2\alpha_1+1)\cdots (2\alpha_k+1)$ such couples. If we denote with $g(u)$ the multiplicative function whose value at $p^\alpha$ is $2\alpha+1$, the original series equal the Dirichlet series:
$$ \sum_{m\geq 1}\frac{g(m)}{m^3}=\prod_{p\in\mathcal{P}}\left(1+\frac{g(p)}{p^3}+\frac{g(p^2)}{p^6}+\frac{g(p^3)}{p^9}+\ldots\right)=\prod_{p\in\mathcal{P}}\left(1-\frac{1}{p^6}\right)\left(1-\frac{1}{p^3}\right)^{-3} $$
that can be easily represented in closed form, $\color{red}{\large\frac{\zeta(3)^3}{\zeta(6)}}$, through Euler's product. 
In a similar way:

$$\forall s>1,\qquad \sum_{m,n\geq 1}\frac{1}{\text{lcm}(m,n)^s} = \sum_{m\geq 1}\frac{g(m)}{m^s}=\color{red}{\frac{\zeta(s)^3}{\zeta(2s)}}.$$
