A number of integral formulas involving the eta function can be listed.
A change of variable (Abel, 1823) in the integral representation of Euler's gamma fonction gives a Mellin transform which can be expressed in different ways. It is valid for

{\displaystyle \Gamma (s)\eta (s)=\int _{0}^{\infty }{\frac {x^{s-1}}{e^{x}+1}}{dx}=\int _{0}^{\infty }\int _{0}^{\infty }{\frac {(t+r)^{s-2}}{e^{t+r}+1}}{dr}{dt}=\int _{0}^{1}\int _{0}^{1}{\frac {(-\log(xy))^{s-2}}{1+xy}}{dx}{dy}.}

This Lindelöf (1905) formula is valid over the whole complex plane, when the principal value is taken for the logarithm implicit in the exponential.

{\displaystyle \eta (s)=\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }{\frac {(1/2+it)^{-s}}{e^{\pi t}+e^{-\pi t}}}{dt}.}
This corresponds to a Jensen (1895) formula for a related entire function, valid over the whole complex plane as proven by Lindelöf.
