sum of the series $frac{1-2x}{1-x+x^2}+frac{4x^3-2x}{1-x^2+x^4}+frac{8x^7-4x^3}{1-x^4+x^8}+cdots cdots$

If $|x|<1,$ Then the sum of the series $$\frac{2x-1}{1-x+x^2}+\frac{4x^3-2x}{1-x^2+x^4}+\frac{8x^7-4x^3}{1-x^4+x^8}+\cdots \cdots$$

Try: Let $$A= \frac{1-2x}{1-x+x^2}+\frac{4x^3-2x}{1-x^2+x^4}+\frac{8x^7-4x^3}{1-x^4+x^8}+\cdots$$

$\displaystyle \int Adx$

$$= \int \bigg[\frac{1-2x}{1-x+x^2}+\frac{4x^3-2x}{1-x^2+x^4}+\frac{8x^7-4x^3}{1-x^4+x^8}+\cdots \cdots \bigg]dx$$

$$\int Adx = \ln\bigg[(1-x+x^2)\cdot (1-x^2+x^4)\cdot (1-x^4+x^8)\cdots \bigg]$$

Now i have seems that expression under $\ln$ on

Right side must have closed form in $-1

But i could not understand how can i find it.

could some help me, thanks

Answer

Hint:

$$(1+x+x^2)(1-x+x^2)=(1+x^2)^2-x^2=?$$

$$\implies\prod_{r=1}^n(1-x^{2^r}+\left(x^{2^r}\right)^2)=\dfrac{1-x^{2^{n+1}}+\left(x^{2^{n+1}}\right)^2}{1+x+x^2}$$

Now $\lim_{n\to\infty}2^{n+1}\to\infty$

and $|x|<1, \lim_{m\to\infty}x^m=0$
