A few remarks on values of Hurwitz Zeta function at natural and rational arguments

We exploit some properties of the Hurwitz zeta function $ζ(n,x)$ in order to study sums of the form $\frac{1}{π^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}1/(jk+l)^{n}$ and $\frac{1}{π^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}(-1)^{j}/(jk+l)^{n}$ for $% 2\leq n,k\in \mathbb{N},$ and integer $l\leq k/2$. We show that these sums are algebraic numbers. We also show that $1<n\in \mathbb{N}$ and $p\in \mathbb{Q\cap (}0,1\mathbb{)}$ $:$ the numbers $(ζ(n,p)+(-1)^{n}ζ(n,1-p))/π^{n}$ are algebraic. On the way we find polynomials $s_{m}$ and $c_{m}$ of order respectively $2m+1$ and $2m+2$ such that their $n-$th coefficients of sine and cosine Fourier transforms are equal to $% (-1)^{n}/n^{2m+1}$ and $(-1)^{n}/n^{2m+2}$ respectively.
