For$alpha in mathbbR backslash mathbbZ$, consider the fnunction $[0,2pi] to mathbbC : x mapsto fracpisin pi alpha e^i(pi - x)alpha$, and prove that $sum_n=-infty^infty frac1(n+alpha)^2 = fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2$. Recall that $x mapsto (2pi)^-1/2 e^inx : n in mathbbZ$ is an orthonormal basis for $L^2_mathbbC[0,2pi]$
My Attempt:
We use Parseval's Theorem, the fact that $|f|^2 = sum_n in mathbbZ |langle f,e_n rangle|^2$, with the inner product norm on $L^2_mathbbC[0,2pi]$. Firstly, we compute the left-hand side. We have
beginalign*
|f|^2 & = int_0^2pi f(x)^2 dx = fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 int_0^2pi e^2i(pi - x)alpha dx \
& = fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 e^2ipialpha int_0^2pi e^-2ix alpha dx
= fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 e^2ipialpha left[ -frac12ialphae^-2ix alpha right]_0^2pi \
& = fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 e^2ipialpha left( -frac12ialphae^-4ipi alpha + frac12ialpha right) =
fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 e^2ipialpha left( frac1 - e^-4ipi alpha2ialpha right) \
& = fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 left( frace^2ipialpha - e^-2ipi alpha2ialpha right)
= fracpi^2(sin pi alpha)^2 left( fracsin (2pi alpha)alpha right)
= frac2 pi^2 cos (pi alpha)sin (pi alpha) alpha.
endalign*
Here we use the trigonometric identities
$$
sin beta = frace^ibeta - e^-ibeta2i, textrm and sin(2beta) = 2sin(beta)cos(beta).
$$
On the left-hand side we have
beginalign*
langle f,e_n rangle & = int_0^2pi frac1sqrt2pi e^inx fracpisin pi alpha e^i(pi - x)alpha dx = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi int_0^2pi e^inx + i(pi - x)alpha dx \
& = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi e^i pi alpha int_0^2pi e^(in- ialpha)x dx
= fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi e^i pi alpha left[ frac1in - ialpha e^(in- ialpha)x right]_0^2pi \
& = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi e^i pi alpha left( frac1in - ialpha e^(in- ialpha)2pi - frac1in - ialpha right) \
& = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi e^i pi alpha left( frace^i(n-alpha)2pi - 1i(n - alpha) right) = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi left( frac-(e^i pi alpha - e^-ipialpha)i(n - alpha) right) \
& = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi frac-2 sin(pi alpha)n - alpha
= frac-2pi(n-alpha)sqrt2pi
endalign*
Hence, we have that
$$
|langle f,e_n rangle|^2 = frac2pi(n-alpha)^2.
$$
This is what I tried, things don't seem to add up to the desired outcome and I can't find any mistakes. Anyone has suggestions? I find the computations I made rather laborious, perhaps there are some tricks to do this simpler? I'm not so familiar with trigonometry and complex integration. Thanks in advance.

& = fracpisin (pi alpha) sqrt2pi frac-2 sin(pi alpha)n - alpha
= frac-2pi(n-alpha)sqrt2pi
