Proving $\int_0^1 \frac{(\ln(x))^5}{1+x} \mathrm{d}x = -\frac{31\pi^6}{252}$
I would like to show the following identity:
$$\boxed{ I := \int_0^1 \dfrac{(\ln(x))^5}{1+x} \mathrm{d}x = -\dfrac{31\pi^6}{252} }$$
Here is what I tried. The change of variables $u=1/x$ yields $$I= \int_1^{\infty} \dfrac{(\ln(x))^5}{1+1/u} \dfrac{1}{u^2} \mathrm{d}u = \int_1^{\infty} \dfrac{(\ln(x))^5}{u^2+u} \mathrm{d}u$$ Then $z=u-1$ gives $$I = \int_{0}^{\infty} \dfrac{(\ln(z+1))^5}{z^2+3z+2} \mathrm{d}z $$ with $z^2+3z+2=(z+1)(z+2)$. I wanted to use contour integration like here, but I was not sure how to proceed in this case. Anyway, the computations of the residues (of which "well-chosen" function? Maybe something like this?) seem to be difficult.
I believe that we can generalize to $\frac{(\ln(x))^n}{1+x}$, or maybe even more (e.g. $\frac{(\ln(x))^n}{ax^2+bx+c}$). Related computations are: (1), (2), (3), (4).
Thank you for your detailed help.
HINT:
Enforce the substitution $x\to e^{-x}$, expand the resulting denominator in a geometric series of $\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(-1)^ne^{-nx}$, interchange the sum and integral, carryout the integral by either successive IBP or differentiating under the integral, and evaluate the resulting series representation of $\zeta(6)$.
Alternatively, note that
$$\int_0^1 \frac{\log^5(x)}{1+x}\,dx=\left. \left(\frac{d^5}{da^5}\int_0^1\frac{x^a}{1+x}\,dx\right)\right|_{a=0}$$
Let $\Re(s)>0$ and $$J(s)=\int_0^1\frac{\ln^sx}{1+x}dx.$$ Letting $x=e^{-u}$, $$\begin{align} J(s)&=(-1)^s\int_0^\infty\frac{u^se^{-u}}{1+e^{-u}}du\\ &=(-1)^s\int_0^\infty u^s\sum_{n\ge1}(-1)^ne^{-nu}du\\ &=(-1)^s\sum_{n\ge1}(-1)^n\int_0^\infty u^se^{-nu}du\\ &=(-1)^s\sum_{n\ge1}\frac{(-1)^n}{n^{s+1}}\int_0^\infty u^se^{-u}du\\ &=(-1)^s\Gamma(s+1)\sum_{n\ge1}\frac{(-1)^n}{n^{s+1}}\\ &=(-1)^s(2^{-s}-1)\Gamma(s+1)\zeta(s+1). \end{align}$$
\begin{align}J&=\int_0^1 \frac{(\ln(x))^5}{1+x} \mathrm{d}x \\ &=\int_0^1 \frac{(\ln(x))^5}{1-x} \mathrm{d}x-\int_0^1 \frac{2u(\ln(u))^5}{1-u^2} \mathrm{d}u\\ &\overset{x=u^2}=\int_0^1 \frac{(\ln(x))^5}{1-x} \mathrm{d}x-\frac{1}{2^5}\int_0^1 \frac{(\ln(x))^5}{1-x} \mathrm{d}x\\ &=\frac{31}{32}\int_0^1 \frac{(\ln(x))^5}{1-x} \mathrm{d}x\\ &=-\frac{31}{32}\times \frac{5!}{945}\times \zeta(6)\\ &=\boxed{-\frac{31\pi^6}{252}} \end{align} I assume: $\displaystyle \int_0^1 \frac{\ln^5 x}{1-x}dx=-5!\zeta(6)$ and $\displaystyle\zeta(6)=\frac{\pi^6}{945}$
