Logarithmic integral $\int_0^{1}\frac{\ln x\ln (1-x^{2})}{1+x^{2}}\mathrm dx$

Evaluate the integral in a closed-form :

$$I=\int_0^{1}\frac{\ln x\ln (1-x^{2})}{1+x^{2}}\mathrm dx$$

My attempt :

After put $x=\tan y$ we obtain:

$$I=\int_0^{\frac{π}{4}}\ln (\tan x)\ln (1-\tan^{2} x)dx$$

$$1-\tan^{2} x=(1+\tan x)(1-\tan x)$$ $$\ln (1+\tan x)=\ln(\sin x+\cos x)-\ln(\cos x)=\ln (\cos (\frac{π}{4}-x))-\ln (\cos x)$$

Also:

$$\ln (1-\tan x)=\ln(\cos x-\sin x)-\ln(\cos x)=\ln (\cos (\frac{π}{4}+x))-\ln (\cos x)$$

So:

$$\ln (\tan x)\ln (1-\tan^{2} x)$$

$$=(\ln (\sin x)-\ln(\cos x)(\ln(\cos (\frac{π}{4}-x))-\ln (\cos x))(\ln(\cos (\frac{π}{4}+x))-\ln(\cos x))$$

Now I have many integrals. How can I evaluate them? Let me know if anyone has other ideas.

As pointed out by Zacky the solution may be found here given by pisco. Adopting the notation they use there we see that

\begin{align*} I&=\int_0^1\frac{\log(x)\log(1-x^2)}{1+x^2}\mathrm dx\\ &=\int_0^1\frac{\log(x)\log(1-x)}{1+x^2}\mathrm dx+\int_0^1\frac{\log(x)\log(1+x)}{1+x^2}\mathrm dx\\ &=I_{ab}+I_{ac} \end{align*}

In the end of their post they get that

\begin{align*} I_{ab}&=\Im\left(\operatorname{Li}_3\left(\frac{1+i}2\right)\right)-\frac{\pi^3}{128}-\frac\pi{32}\log^2(2)\\ I_{ac}&=-3\Im\left(\operatorname{Li}_3\left(\frac{1+i}2\right)\right)+\frac{11\pi^3}{128}+\frac{3\pi}{32}\log^2(2)-2G\log(2) \end{align*}

Thus,

$$\small\therefore~I~=~\int_0^1\frac{\log(x)\log(1-x^2)}{1+x^2}\mathrm dx~=~-2\Im\left(\operatorname{Li}_3\left(\frac{1+i}2\right)\right)+\frac{5\pi^3}{64}+\frac\pi{16}\log^2(2)-2G\log(2)$$

\begin{align} \int_0^1\frac{\ln x\ln(1-x^2)}{1+x^2}\ dx=\int_0^1\frac{\ln x\ln(1-x^4)}{1+x^2}\ dx-\int_0^1\frac{\ln x\ln(1+x^2)}{1+x^2}\ dx \end{align} The first integral was nicely done here by Bennett Gardiner. $$\int_0^1\frac{\ln x\ln(1-x^4)}{1+x^2}\ dx=\frac{\pi^3}{16}-3G\ln2$$ and I managed to calculate the second integral here. $$\int_0^1\frac{\ln x\ln(1+x^2)}{1+x^2}\ dx=\frac{3\pi^3}{32}+\frac{\pi}8\ln^22-\ln2~G-2\text{Im}\operatorname{Li_3}(1+i)$$ Thus $$\int_0^1\frac{\ln x\ln(1-x^2)}{1+x^2}\ dx=2\text{Im}\operatorname{Li_3}(1+i)-\frac{\pi^3}{32}-\frac{\pi}8\ln^22-2\ln2~G$$

Presented below is a self-contained evaluation. Let $J=\int_0^1 \frac{\ln^2(1+x)}{1+x^2}dx$

\begin{align} &\int_0^1 \frac{\ln^2(1-x)}{1+x^2}dx \overset{x\to\frac{1-x}{1+x}}= J -2 \int_0^1 \frac{\ln x\ln(1+x)}{1+x^2}dx-2G\ln2+\frac{\pi^3}{16}\\ &\int_0^\infty \frac{\ln^2(1+x)}{1+x^2}dx \overset{(0,1)+\overset{x\to 1/x}{(1,\infty)}} = 2J -2 \int_0^1 \frac{\ln x\ln(1+x)}{1+x^2}dx+\frac{\pi^3}{16} \end{align}

Eliminate $J$ to get

$$\int_0^1 \frac{\ln x\ln(1+x)}{1+x^2}dx =\frac12\int_0^\infty \frac{\ln^2(1+x)}{1+x^2}dx-K-2G\ln2+\frac{\pi^3}{32} \tag1$$

where $K=\int_0^1 \frac{\ln^2(1-x)}{1+x^2}dx =2\text{Im}\>\text{Li}_3\left(\frac{1+i}2\right) $. Also

$$\int_0^1 \frac{\ln x\ln(1-x)}{1+x^2}dx =\frac12 K-\frac12\int_0^1\frac{\ln\frac x{1-x}}{1+x^2}dx +\frac12\int_0^1\frac{\ln^2x}{1+x^2}dx\tag2 $$

Then, (1) + (2)

$$ \int_0^1 \frac{\ln x\ln(1-x^2)}{1+x^2}dx =-2\text{Im}\>\text{Li}_3\left(\frac{1+i}2\right)-2G\ln2+\frac{\pi^3}{16} +\frac12 A \tag3$$

where \begin{align} A =& \int_0^1 \underset{t=1-x}{\frac{\ln^2(1-x)}{1+x^2}}dx- \int_0^1\underset{t=\frac x{1-x}}{\frac{\ln\frac x{1-x}}{1+x^2}}dx +\underset{t=1+x}{ \int_0^\infty \frac{\ln^2(1+x)}{1+x^2}}dx \\ =& \int_0^\infty {\frac{4t \ln^2 t}{4+t^4}}dt \overset{t^2=2u}= \frac14 \int_0^\infty \frac{\ln^2(2u)}{1+u^2}du = \frac{\pi}{8}\ln^22+\frac{\pi^3}{32} \end{align}

Plug into (3) to obtain $$ \int_0^1 \frac{\ln x\ln(1-x^2)}{1+x^2}dx =-2\text{Im}\>\text{Li}_3\left(\frac{1+i}2\right) -2G\ln2 +\frac{\pi}{16}\ln^22+\frac{5\pi^3}{64}$$
