Abstract
Let \(s,t,u \in {{\mathbb {C}}}\) and T(s, t, u) be the Tornheim double zeta function. In this paper, we investigate some properties of symmetric Tornheim double zeta functions which can be regarded as a desingularization of the Tornheim double zeta function. As a corollary, we give explicit evaluation formulas or rapidly convergent series representations for T(s, t, u) in terms of series of the gamma function and the Riemann zeta function.

Notes
For example, on \(s+t=1\), the function \((2^{s+t}-2)\zeta (s+t)\) has a possible (not true) singularity and the function \((2^{s+t}-2) \zeta ^2(s+t)\) has a true (not possible) singularity. In general, it is not easy to determine whether singularities of multivariable (zeta) functions are true or not.
they need some assumptions for \(x,y,z \in {{\mathbb {R}}}\) since T(s, t, u) has the true singularities given by (1.2)
To state the main theorems simpler, we use this notation.
