TITLE: On the integral $\int_{0}^{1/2}\frac{\text{Li}_3(1-z)}{\sqrt{z(1-z)}}\,dz$
QUESTION [12 upvotes]: This questions is related to my previous one.

I am interested in a explicit evaluation in terms of Euler sums for
  $$ \int_{0}^{\pi/4}\text{Li}_3(\cos^2\theta)\,d\theta = \frac{1}{2}\int_{0}^{1/2}\frac{\text{Li}_3(1-z)}{\sqrt{z(1-z)}}\,dz.$$

It is not difficult to show that
$$ \int_{0}^{\color{red}{1}}\frac{\text{Li}_3(1-z)}{\sqrt{z(1-z)}}\,dz =-\frac{\pi^3}{3}\log(2)+\frac{4\pi}{3}\log^3(2)+2\pi\zeta(3)\tag{A}$$
but I have not managed to make a wise use of the trilogarithm functional identities for computing
$$ \int_{0}^{1/2}\frac{\text{Li}_3(z)}{\sqrt{z(1-z)}}\,dz\stackrel{\text{IBP}}{\longrightarrow}\int_{0}^{\pi/4}\theta\cot(\theta)\text{Li}_2(\sin^2\theta)\,d\theta \quad\text{or}\quad\int_{0}^{1/2}\frac{\text{Li}_3(z)-\text{Li}_3(1-z)}{\sqrt{z(1-z)}}\,dz ,$$
which would have solved the problem. One might need substantial extensions of the result about $\mathcal{I}(a,b)$ proved here by nospoon. I am expecting the integral above to be related with Euler sums with (total) weight five. Maybe the shifted-Fourier-Chebyshev expansion of $\text{Li}_3(x)$ over $(0,1)$ is already known in the literature, but I have not been able to find it.

REPLY [3 votes]: By brutally evaluating such poly-logsine integrals, or those quadratic Euler sums @user 1591719 proposed, one have

$\int_0^{\frac{1}{2}} \frac{\text{Li}_3(z)}{\sqrt{z (1-z)}} \, dz=-\frac{\pi ^2 C}{6}+C \log ^2(2)-56 \Im(\text{Li}_4(1+i))+4 \log (2) \Im(\text{Li}_3(1+i))+\pi  \zeta (3)+\pi  \log ^3(2)+\frac{17}{24} \pi ^3 \log (2)+\frac{7 \psi ^{(3)}\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}{256}-\frac{7 \psi ^{(3)}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)}{256}$
$\int_0^{\frac{1}{2}} \frac{\text{Li}_3(1-z)}{\sqrt{z (1-z)}} \, dz=\frac{\pi ^2 C}{6}-C \log ^2(2)+56 \Im(\text{Li}_4(1+i))-4 \log (2) \Im(\text{Li}_3(1+i))+\pi  \zeta (3)+\frac{1}{3} \pi  \log ^3(2)-\frac{25}{24} \pi ^3 \log (2)-\frac{7 \psi ^{(3)}\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}{256}+\frac{7 \psi ^{(3)}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)}{256}$

See here for the methods of calculating quadratic Euler sums. This offers a far more  systematic and advanced solution.
