As part of solving:



beginequation
I_m = int_0^1 lnleft(1 + x^2mright):dx.
endequation

where $m in mathbbN$. I found an unresolved component that I'm unsure how to start:



beginequation
G_m = sum_j = 0^m - 1 left(c_j + 1right)lnleft(c_j + 1right),
endequation



where $c_j = cosleft(fracpi2mleft(1 + 2jright) right)$



I'm just looking for a starting point. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.



By the way, I was able to show (and this was part of the solution too) :



beginequation
sum_j = 0^m - 1 c_j = 0
endequation



Edit: For those that may be interested. In collaboration with clathratus, we found that for $n > 1$



beginequation
int_0^1 frac1t^n + 1:dt = frac1nleft[fracpisinleft(fracpin right)- Bleft(1 - frac1n, frac1n, frac12right)right]
endequation



Or for any positive upper bound $x$:
beginalign
I_n(x) &= int_0^x frac1t^n + 1:dt = frac1nleft[Gammaleft(1 - frac1n right)Gammaleft(frac1n right)- Bleft(1 - frac1n, frac1n, frac1x^n + 1right)right]
endalign



Here though, I was curious to investigate when $n$ was an even integer. This is my work:



Here we will consider $r = 2m$ where $m in mathbbN$. In doing so, we observe that the roots of the function are $m$ pairs of complex roots $(z, c(z))$ where $c(z)$ is the conjugate of $z$. To verify this:



beginalign
x^2m + 1 = 0 rightarrow x^2m = e^pi i
endalign



By De Moivre's formula, we observe that:



beginalign
x = expleft(fracpi + 2pi j2m i right) mbox for j = 0dots 2m - 1,
endalign



which we can express as the set



beginalign
S &= Bigg expleft(fracpi + 2pi cdot 02m i right) , :expleft(fracpi + 2pi cdot 12m i right),dots,:expleft(fracpi + 2pi cdot (2m - 2)2m i right)\
&qquad:expleft(fracpi + 2pi cdot (2m - 1)2m i right)Bigg,
endalign



which can be expressed as the set of $2$-tuples



beginalign
S &= left left( expleft(fracpi + 2pi j2m i right) , :expleft(fracpi + 2pi(2m - 1 - j )2m i right)right): bigg\
& = left (z_j, cleft(z_jright):
endalign



From here, we can factor $x^2m + 1$ into the form



beginalign
x^2m + 1 &= prod_r in S left(x + r_jright)left(x + c(r_j)right) \
&= prod_i = 0^m - 1 left(x^2 + left(r_j + c(r_j)right)x + r_j c(r_j)right) \
&= prod_i = 0^m - 1 left(x^2 + 2Releft(r_jright)x + left|r_j right|^2right)
endalign



For our case here $left|r_j right|^2 = 1$ and $Releft(r_jright) = cosleft(fracpi + 2pi j2m right)= cosleft(fracpi2mleft(1 + 2jright)right) = c_j$



beginalign
int_0^1 logleft( x^2m + 1right):dx &= int_0^1 logleft(prod_r in S left(x^2 + 2c_jx+ left|r_j right|^2right)right)\
&= sum_j = 0^m - 1 int_0^1 logleft(x^2 + 2c_jx + 1 right)\
&= sum_j = 0^m - 1 left[2sqrt1 - c_j^2arctanleft(fracx + c_jsqrt1 - c_j^2right) + left(x + c_jright)logleft(x^2 + 2c_jx + 1right) - 2x right]_0^1 \
&= sum_j = 0^m - 1 left[ 2sqrt1 - c_j^2arctanleft(sqrtfrac1 - c_j1 + c_j right) + log(2)c_j + left(log(2) - 2right) + left(c_j + 1right)logleft(c_j + 1right) right] \
&= 2sum_j = 0^m - 1sqrt1 - c_j^2arctanleft(sqrtfrac1 - c_j1 + c_j right) + log(2)sum_j = 0^m - 1 c_j + mleft(log(2) - 2right)\
&qquad+ sum_j = 0^m - 1left(c_j + 1right)logleft(c_j + 1right)
endalign



Thus,



beginalign
int_0^1 logleft( x^2m + 1right):dx &=sum_j = 0^m - 1c_jsinleft(fracpi2mleft(1 + 2jright)right) + log(2)sum_j = 0^m - 1 c_j + mleft(log(2) - 2right)\
&qquad+ sum_j = 0^m - 1left(c_j + 1right)logleft(c_j + 1right)
endalign

This does not answer the question as asked in the post.



Consider
$$J_m=int log(1+x^2m),dx$$ One integration by parts gives
$$J_m=x log left(1+x^2 mright)-2mint frac x^2 m+1-1x^2 m+1,dx=x log left(1+x^2 mright)-2mx+2mint fracdxx^2 m+1$$ and
$$int fracdxx^2 m+1=x , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-x^2 mright)$$ where appears the Gaussian or ordinary hypergeometric function.



So
$$K_m=int_0^a log(1+x^2m),dx=a log left(1+a^2 mright)-2ma+2ma , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-a^2 mright)$$ and, if $a=1$,
$$I_m=int_0^1 log(1+x^2m),dx= log left(2right)-2m+2m , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-1right)$$ which can write
$$I_m=log (2)-Phi left(-1,1,1+frac12 mright)$$
where appears the Lerch transcendent function.



Now, (this is something I never looked at), a few (ugly) expressions for $f_m=Phi left(-1,1,1+frac12 mright)$ before any simplification
$$f(1)=fracpi 2-2$$
$$f(2)=frac14 left(pi tan left(fracpi 8right)+pi cot left(fracpi
8right)-4 sqrt2 log left(sin left(fracpi 8right)right)+4
sqrt2 log left(cos left(fracpi 8right)right)right)-4$$

$$f(3)=frac2 left(pi -sqrt3 log left(sqrt3-1right)+sqrt3 log
left(1+sqrt3right)right)left(sqrt3-1right)
left(1+sqrt3right)-6$$

$$f(4)=frac14 left(pi tan left(fracpi 16right)+pi cot left(fracpi
16right)-8 sin left(fracpi 8right) log left(sin left(frac3
pi 16right)right)+8 cos left(fracpi 8right) log left(cos
left(fracpi 16right)right)-8 cos left(fracpi 8right) log
left(sin left(fracpi 16right)right)+8 sin left(fracpi
8right) log left(cos left(frac3 pi 16right)right)right)-8$$

$colorbrowntextbfPreliminary notes.$




Calculation of the required sum looks more complex task than of the
issue integral.



Approach with calculations of the sum via the inttegral allows to get close form both of the integral and the sum.




Denote
$$I_n=intlimits_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrm dx.tag1$$
Easy to see that the issue integral is $I_2m.$



$colorbrowntextbfClosed form of the integrals.$



The first step is the integration by parts:
$$I_n = xlog(1+x^n)biggr|_0^1-nint_0^1xdfracx^n-11+x^nmathrm dx,$$
$$I_n = log2 - n + nintlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n.tag2$$
(see also Claude Leibovici).



Then, the substitution
$$x=e^-ttag3$$
gives
$$J_n=intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n=intlimits_0^inftydfrace^-t,mathrm dt1+e^-nt = sumlimits_k=0^infty(-1)^kintlimits_0^infty e^-(kn+1)t,mathrm dt=sumlimits_k=0^inftydfrac(-1)^kkn+1 ,$$
$$J_n = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n= dfrac12nleft(psi_0left(dfracn+12nright) - psi_0left(dfrac12nright)right),tag4$$
where $psi_0(x)$ is the polygamma function.



Using $(2),(4),$ easy to get the expression for the OP integral in the form of
$$boxedI_2m = log2 - 2m +dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right).tag5$$



$colorbrowntextbfTesting of the solution.$



Solution $(4)$ can be expressed via the elementary functions for a lot of the given values of n.



Immediate calculations allow to check obtained expressions in the simple cases
beginalign
&J_1 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x = log 2,\[4pt]
&J_2 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^2 = arctan 1 = dfracpi4,\[4pt]
&J_3 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^3
= dfrac16intlimits_0^1left(dfrac21+x - dfrac2x-11-x+x^2 + dfrac31-x+x^2right),mathrm dx\
&= left(dfrac13log(1+x) - dfrac16 log(1-x+x^2) + dfrac1sqrt3arctandfrac2x-1sqrt3right)bigg|_0^1
= dfracpi3sqrt3 + frac13 log2.\[4pt]
endalign

More hard cases are
beginalign
&J_4 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^4
= dfracsqrt28left(logdfracx^2 + sqrt2 x + 1x^2 - sqrt2 x + 1
- 2arctan(1-sqrt2x) + 2arctan(sqrt2x+1)right)bigg|_0^1\[4pt]
&= dfracsqrt28left(logdfrac(x^2 + sqrt2 x + 1)^21+x^4 + 2arctandfracxsqrt21-x^2right)bigg|_0^1
= dfracsqrt28(pi+log(3+2sqrt2)),\[4pt]
&J_4=dfrac18Bigg(dfrac12sqrtdfrac2-sqrt22+sqrt2pi+dfrac12sqrtdfrac2+sqrt22-sqrt2pi
-2sqrt2left(-log2+dfrac12log(2-sqrt2)right)\[4pt]
&+2sqrt2left(-log2+dfrac12log(2+sqrt2)right)Bigg)\[4pt]
&=dfrac18Bigg(dfracpi2left(tandfracpi8+cotdfracpi8right)
+sqrt2logdfrac2+sqrt22-sqrt2Bigg)
= dfracsqrt28(pi+log(3+2sqrt2)),
endalign

and $n>4.$



Numeric calculations of the issue integral $I_2m$ and its closed form $(5)$ also confirm the correctness of the closed form.



$colorbrowntextbfThe alternative approach.$



The alternative approach is considered in OP. Let us repeat it with some differences.



Polynomial factorization can be presented in the form of



beginalign
&1+x^2m = prodlimits_j=0^2m-1large left(x-e^frac2j+12mpi iright)
= prodlimits_j=0^m-1left(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right),
endalign

so
beginalign
&I_2m = intlimits_0^1 ln(1+x^2m),mathrm dx
= sumlimits_j=0^m-1 T_j,quadtextwhere\[4pt]
&T_j = intlimits_0^1 lnleft(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right),mathrm dx,\[4pt]
&T_j = xlnleft(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right)bigg|_0^1
- 2intlimits_0^1 dfracxleft(x-cosfrac2j+12mpiright)x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1,mathrm dx\[4pt]

&T_j = left(1-cosfrac2j+12mpiright)lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2 + dfrac2(m-j)-12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi.
endalign

Taking in account that
beginalign
&sumlimits_j=0^m-1cosfrac2j+12mpi
= Re sumlimits_j=0^m-1e^frac2j+12mpi i
= Re large dfrac1-e^pi i1-e^fracpimie^fracpi2mi

&sumlimits_j=0^m-1frac2j+12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi
= dfracpi2sinfracpi2m
endalign

(see also Wolfram Alpha calculations),



one can get
$$boxedI_2m = m(ln2-2) + dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
+ sumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright)
logleft(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright).tag6$$



$colorbrowntextbfClosed form for the sum.$



From $(5)-(6)$ should
$$colorgreenboxedsumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pm c_jright)
logleft(1pm c_jright)
= dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right) - (m-1)ln2 - dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
,tag7$$

where
$$c_j = cosfrac2j+12mpi.$$



Numeric calculations confirm the expression $(6)$ for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".



Also, numeric calculations of the issue sum and its closed form $(7)$ confirm the correctness of the closed form for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".

I did it!



I actually have no idea whether or not this works, but this is how I did it.



$ninBbb N$



Define the sequence $r_k^(n)_k=1^k=n$ such that
$$x^n+1=prod_k=1^nbig(x-r^(n)_kbig)$$
We then know that $$r_k^(n)=expbigg[fracipin(2k-1)bigg]$$
Then we define
$$S_n=r_k^(n):kin[1,n]capBbb N$$
So we have that
$$frac1x^n+1=prod_rin S_nfrac1x-r=prod_k=1^nfrac1x-r_k^(n)$$
Then we assume that we can write
$$prod_rin S_nfrac1x-r=sum_rin S_nfracb(r)x-r$$
Multiplying both sides by $prod_ain S_n(x-a)$,
$$1=sum_rin S_nb(r)prod_ain S_n\ aneq r(x-a)$$
So for any $omegain S_n$,
$$1=b(omega)prod_ain S_n\ aneq omega(omega-a)$$
$$b(omega)=prod_ain S_n\ aneq omegafrac1omega-a$$
$$b(r_k^(n))=prod_p=1\ pneq k^nfrac1r_k^(n)-r_p^(n)$$
So we know that
$$I_n=int_0^1fracmathrmdx1+x^n=sum_k=1^nb(r_k^(n))int_0^1fracmathrmdxx-r_k^(n)$$
$$I_n=sum_k=1^nb(r_k^(n))logbigg|fracr_k^(n)-1r_k^(n)bigg|$$
$$I_n=sum_k=1^nlogbigg|fracr_k^(n)-1r_k^(n)bigg|prod_p=1\ pneq k^nfrac1r_k^(n)-r_p^(n)$$
So we have
$$int_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrmdx=log2-n+nsum_k=1^nlogbigg|fracr_k^(n)-1r_k^(n)bigg|prod_p=1\ pneq k^nfrac1r_k^(n)-r_p^(n)$$
along with a plethora of other identities...

$begingroup$

Here's another, quicker, method (I also don't know if this one works)



Using the same $r_k^(n)$ as last time, we apply the $logprod_ia_i=sum_ilog a_i$ property to see that
$$log(1+x^n)=logprod_k=1^n(x-r_k^(n))=sum_k=1^nlog(x-r_k^(n))$$
So
$$I_n=int_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrm dx=sum_k=1^nint_0^1log(x-r_k^(n))mathrm dx$$
This last integral boils down to
$$beginalign
int_0^1log(x-a)mathrm dx=&alogfraca1+a+log(1-a)-1\
=&logfraca^a(1-a)e(1+a)^a
endalign$$

So
$$I_n=sum_rin S_nlogfracr^r(1-r)e(1+r)^r$$
And you know how I love product representations, so we again use $logprod_ia_i=sum_ilog a_i$ to see that
$$
I_n=logprod_rin S_nfracr^r(1-r)e(1+r)^r\
prod_rin S_nfracr^r(1-r)(1+r)^r=exp(n+I_n)
$$

Which I just think is really neat.

    This does not answer the question as asked in the post.



    Consider
    $$J_m=int log(1+x^2m),dx$$ One integration by parts gives
    $$J_m=x log left(1+x^2 mright)-2mint frac x^2 m+1-1x^2 m+1,dx=x log left(1+x^2 mright)-2mx+2mint fracdxx^2 m+1$$ and
    $$int fracdxx^2 m+1=x , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-x^2 mright)$$ where appears the Gaussian or ordinary hypergeometric function.



    So
    $$K_m=int_0^a log(1+x^2m),dx=a log left(1+a^2 mright)-2ma+2ma , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-a^2 mright)$$ and, if $a=1$,
    $$I_m=int_0^1 log(1+x^2m),dx= log left(2right)-2m+2m , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-1right)$$ which can write
    $$I_m=log (2)-Phi left(-1,1,1+frac12 mright)$$
    where appears the Lerch transcendent function.



    Now, (this is something I never looked at), a few (ugly) expressions for $f_m=Phi left(-1,1,1+frac12 mright)$ before any simplification
    $$f(1)=fracpi 2-2$$
    $$f(2)=frac14 left(pi tan left(fracpi 8right)+pi cot left(fracpi
    8right)-4 sqrt2 log left(sin left(fracpi 8right)right)+4
    sqrt2 log left(cos left(fracpi 8right)right)right)-4$$

    $$f(3)=frac2 left(pi -sqrt3 log left(sqrt3-1right)+sqrt3 log
    left(1+sqrt3right)right)left(sqrt3-1right)
    left(1+sqrt3right)-6$$

    $$f(4)=frac14 left(pi tan left(fracpi 16right)+pi cot left(fracpi
    16right)-8 sin left(fracpi 8right) log left(sin left(frac3
    pi 16right)right)+8 cos left(fracpi 8right) log left(cos
    left(fracpi 16right)right)-8 cos left(fracpi 8right) log
    left(sin left(fracpi 16right)right)+8 sin left(fracpi
    8right) log left(cos left(frac3 pi 16right)right)right)-8$$

    $$I_m=int_0^1 log(1+x^2m),dx= log left(2right)-2m+2m , _2F_1left(1,frac12 m;1+frac12 m;-1right)$$ which can write
    $$I_m=log (2)-Phi left(-1,1,1+frac12 mright)$$
    where appears the Lerch transcendent function.

    $colorbrowntextbfPreliminary notes.$




    Calculation of the required sum looks more complex task than of the
    issue integral.



    Approach with calculations of the sum via the inttegral allows to get close form both of the integral and the sum.




    Denote
    $$I_n=intlimits_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrm dx.tag1$$
    Easy to see that the issue integral is $I_2m.$



    $colorbrowntextbfClosed form of the integrals.$



    The first step is the integration by parts:
    $$I_n = xlog(1+x^n)biggr|_0^1-nint_0^1xdfracx^n-11+x^nmathrm dx,$$
    $$I_n = log2 - n + nintlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n.tag2$$
    (see also Claude Leibovici).



    Then, the substitution
    $$x=e^-ttag3$$
    gives
    $$J_n=intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n=intlimits_0^inftydfrace^-t,mathrm dt1+e^-nt = sumlimits_k=0^infty(-1)^kintlimits_0^infty e^-(kn+1)t,mathrm dt=sumlimits_k=0^inftydfrac(-1)^kkn+1 ,$$
    $$J_n = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n= dfrac12nleft(psi_0left(dfracn+12nright) - psi_0left(dfrac12nright)right),tag4$$
    where $psi_0(x)$ is the polygamma function.



    Using $(2),(4),$ easy to get the expression for the OP integral in the form of
    $$boxedI_2m = log2 - 2m +dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right).tag5$$



    $colorbrowntextbfTesting of the solution.$



    Solution $(4)$ can be expressed via the elementary functions for a lot of the given values of n.



    Immediate calculations allow to check obtained expressions in the simple cases
    beginalign
    &J_1 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x = log 2,\[4pt]
    &J_2 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^2 = arctan 1 = dfracpi4,\[4pt]
    &J_3 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^3
    = dfrac16intlimits_0^1left(dfrac21+x - dfrac2x-11-x+x^2 + dfrac31-x+x^2right),mathrm dx\
    &= left(dfrac13log(1+x) - dfrac16 log(1-x+x^2) + dfrac1sqrt3arctandfrac2x-1sqrt3right)bigg|_0^1
    = dfracpi3sqrt3 + frac13 log2.\[4pt]
    endalign

    More hard cases are
    beginalign
    &J_4 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^4
    = dfracsqrt28left(logdfracx^2 + sqrt2 x + 1x^2 - sqrt2 x + 1
    - 2arctan(1-sqrt2x) + 2arctan(sqrt2x+1)right)bigg|_0^1\[4pt]
    &= dfracsqrt28left(logdfrac(x^2 + sqrt2 x + 1)^21+x^4 + 2arctandfracxsqrt21-x^2right)bigg|_0^1
    = dfracsqrt28(pi+log(3+2sqrt2)),\[4pt]
    &J_4=dfrac18Bigg(dfrac12sqrtdfrac2-sqrt22+sqrt2pi+dfrac12sqrtdfrac2+sqrt22-sqrt2pi
    -2sqrt2left(-log2+dfrac12log(2-sqrt2)right)\[4pt]
    &+2sqrt2left(-log2+dfrac12log(2+sqrt2)right)Bigg)\[4pt]
    &=dfrac18Bigg(dfracpi2left(tandfracpi8+cotdfracpi8right)
    +sqrt2logdfrac2+sqrt22-sqrt2Bigg)
    = dfracsqrt28(pi+log(3+2sqrt2)),
    endalign

    and $n>4.$



    Numeric calculations of the issue integral $I_2m$ and its closed form $(5)$ also confirm the correctness of the closed form.



    $colorbrowntextbfThe alternative approach.$



    The alternative approach is considered in OP. Let us repeat it with some differences.



    Polynomial factorization can be presented in the form of



    beginalign
    &1+x^2m = prodlimits_j=0^2m-1large left(x-e^frac2j+12mpi iright)
    = prodlimits_j=0^m-1left(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right),
    endalign

    so
    beginalign
    &I_2m = intlimits_0^1 ln(1+x^2m),mathrm dx
    = sumlimits_j=0^m-1 T_j,quadtextwhere\[4pt]
    &T_j = intlimits_0^1 lnleft(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right),mathrm dx,\[4pt]
    &T_j = xlnleft(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right)bigg|_0^1
    - 2intlimits_0^1 dfracxleft(x-cosfrac2j+12mpiright)x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1,mathrm dx\[4pt]
    & = lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright)
    - 2-2intlimits_0^1 dfracxcosfrac2j+12mpi-1x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1,mathrm dx\[4pt]

    & = lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2
    - cosfrac2j+12mpi lnleft(x^2-2xcosfrac2j+12mpi+1right)bigg|_0^1\[4pt]

    & = lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2

    & + 2sinfrac2j+12mpi

    + arctandfraccosfrac2j+12mpisinfrac2j+12mpiright)\[4pt]
    & = lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2
    - cosfrac2j+12mpi lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright)\[4pt]
    & + 2sinfrac2j+12mpi
    arctandfracsinfrac2j+12mpi
    sin^2frac2j+12mpi - left(1 - cosfrac2j+12mpiright)cosfrac2j+12mpi\[4pt]
    & = left(1-cosfrac2j+12mpiright)lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2 + 2sinfrac2j+12mpiarctancotfrac2j+14mpi,\[4pt]
    &T_j = left(1-cosfrac2j+12mpiright)lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2 + dfrac2(m-j)-12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi.
    endalign

    Taking in account that
    beginalign
    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1cosfrac2j+12mpi
    = Re sumlimits_j=0^m-1e^frac2j+12mpi i
    = Re large dfrac1-e^pi i1-e^fracpimie^fracpi2mi
    =Redfrac isinfracpi2m = 0,\[4pt]
    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1sinfrac2j+12mpi
    = Im sumlimits_j=0^m-1e^frac2j+12mpi i
    =Imdfracisinfracpi2m = dfrac1sinfracpi2m,\[4pt]
    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1frac2j+12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi
    = dfracpi2sinfracpi2m
    endalign

    (see also Wolfram Alpha calculations),



    one can get
    $$boxedI_2m = m(ln2-2) + dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
    + sumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright)
    logleft(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright).tag6$$



    $colorbrowntextbfClosed form for the sum.$



    From $(5)-(6)$ should
    $$colorgreenboxedsumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pm c_jright)
    logleft(1pm c_jright)
    = dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right) - (m-1)ln2 - dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
    ,tag7$$

    where
    $$c_j = cosfrac2j+12mpi.$$



    Numeric calculations confirm the expression $(6)$ for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".



    Also, numeric calculations of the issue sum and its closed form $(7)$ confirm the correctness of the closed form for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".

    Calculation of the required sum looks more complex task than of the
    issue integral.



    Approach with calculations of the sum via the inttegral allows to get close form both of the integral and the sum.




    Denote
    $$I_n=intlimits_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrm dx.tag1$$
    Easy to see that the issue integral is $I_2m.$



    $colorbrowntextbfClosed form of the integrals.$



    The first step is the integration by parts:
    $$I_n = xlog(1+x^n)biggr|_0^1-nint_0^1xdfracx^n-11+x^nmathrm dx,$$
    $$I_n = log2 - n + nintlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n.tag2$$
    (see also Claude Leibovici).



    Then, the substitution
    $$x=e^-ttag3$$
    gives
    $$J_n=intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n=intlimits_0^inftydfrace^-t,mathrm dt1+e^-nt = sumlimits_k=0^infty(-1)^kintlimits_0^infty e^-(kn+1)t,mathrm dt=sumlimits_k=0^inftydfrac(-1)^kkn+1 ,$$
    $$J_n = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^n= dfrac12nleft(psi_0left(dfracn+12nright) - psi_0left(dfrac12nright)right),tag4$$
    where $psi_0(x)$ is the polygamma function.



    Using $(2),(4),$ easy to get the expression for the OP integral in the form of
    $$boxedI_2m = log2 - 2m +dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right).tag5$$



    $colorbrowntextbfTesting of the solution.$



    Solution $(4)$ can be expressed via the elementary functions for a lot of the given values of n.



    Immediate calculations allow to check obtained expressions in the simple cases
    beginalign
    &J_1 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x = log 2,\[4pt]
    &J_2 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^2 = arctan 1 = dfracpi4,\[4pt]
    &J_3 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^3
    = dfrac16intlimits_0^1left(dfrac21+x - dfrac2x-11-x+x^2 + dfrac31-x+x^2right),mathrm dx\
    &= left(dfrac13log(1+x) - dfrac16 log(1-x+x^2) + dfrac1sqrt3arctandfrac2x-1sqrt3right)bigg|_0^1
    = dfracpi3sqrt3 + frac13 log2.\[4pt]
    endalign

    More hard cases are
    beginalign
    &J_4 = intlimits_0^1dfracmathrm dx1+x^4
    = dfracsqrt28left(logdfracx^2 + sqrt2 x + 1x^2 - sqrt2 x + 1
    - 2arctan(1-sqrt2x) + 2arctan(sqrt2x+1)right)bigg|_0^1\[4pt]
    &= dfracsqrt28left(logdfrac(x^2 + sqrt2 x + 1)^21+x^4 + 2arctandfracxsqrt21-x^2right)bigg|_0^1
    = dfracsqrt28(pi+log(3+2sqrt2)),\[4pt]
    &J_4=dfrac18Bigg(dfrac12sqrtdfrac2-sqrt22+sqrt2pi+dfrac12sqrtdfrac2+sqrt22-sqrt2pi
    -2sqrt2left(-log2+dfrac12log(2-sqrt2)right)\[4pt]
    &+2sqrt2left(-log2+dfrac12log(2+sqrt2)right)Bigg)\[4pt]
    &=dfrac18Bigg(dfracpi2left(tandfracpi8+cotdfracpi8right)
    +sqrt2logdfrac2+sqrt22-sqrt2Bigg)
    = dfracsqrt28(pi+log(3+2sqrt2)),
    endalign

    and $n>4.$



    Numeric calculations of the issue integral $I_2m$ and its closed form $(5)$ also confirm the correctness of the closed form.



    $colorbrowntextbfThe alternative approach.$



    The alternative approach is considered in OP. Let us repeat it with some differences.



    Polynomial factorization can be presented in the form of



    beginalign
    &1+x^2m = prodlimits_j=0^2m-1large left(x-e^frac2j+12mpi iright)

    &T_j = left(1-cosfrac2j+12mpiright)lnleft(2-2cosfrac2j+12mpiright) - 2 + dfrac2(m-j)-12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi.
    endalign

    Taking in account that
    beginalign
    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1cosfrac2j+12mpi
    = Re sumlimits_j=0^m-1e^frac2j+12mpi i
    = Re large dfrac1-e^pi i1-e^fracpimie^fracpi2mi

    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1frac2j+12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi
    = dfracpi2sinfracpi2m
    endalign

    (see also Wolfram Alpha calculations),



    one can get
    $$boxedI_2m = m(ln2-2) + dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
    + sumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright)
    logleft(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright).tag6$$



    $colorbrowntextbfClosed form for the sum.$



    From $(5)-(6)$ should
    $$colorgreenboxedsumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pm c_jright)
    logleft(1pm c_jright)
    = dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right) - (m-1)ln2 - dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
    ,tag7$$

    where
    $$c_j = cosfrac2j+12mpi.$$



    Numeric calculations confirm the expression $(6)$ for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".



    Also, numeric calculations of the issue sum and its closed form $(7)$ confirm the correctness of the closed form for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".

    Taking in account that
    beginalign
    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1cosfrac2j+12mpi
    = Re sumlimits_j=0^m-1e^frac2j+12mpi i
    = Re large dfrac1-e^pi i1-e^fracpimie^fracpi2mi

    &sumlimits_j=0^m-1frac2j+12mpisinfrac2j+12mpi
    = dfracpi2sinfracpi2m
    endalign

    (see also Wolfram Alpha calculations),



    one can get
    $$boxedI_2m = m(ln2-2) + dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
    + sumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright)
    logleft(1pmcosfrac2j+12mpiright).tag6$$



    $colorbrowntextbfClosed form for the sum.$



    From $(5)-(6)$ should
    $$colorgreenboxedsumlimits_j=0^m-1left(1pm c_jright)
    logleft(1pm c_jright)
    = dfrac12left(psi_0left(dfrac2m+14mright) - psi_0left(dfrac14mright)right) - (m-1)ln2 - dfracpi2cscfracpi2m
    ,tag7$$

    where
    $$c_j = cosfrac2j+12mpi.$$



    Numeric calculations confirm the expression $(6)$ for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".



    Also, numeric calculations of the issue sum and its closed form $(7)$ confirm the correctness of the closed form for the both variants of the sign "$pm$".

    I did it!



    I actually have no idea whether or not this works, but this is how I did it.



    $ninBbb N$



    Define the sequence $r_k^(n)_k=1^k=n$ such that
    $$x^n+1=prod_k=1^nbig(x-r^(n)_kbig)$$
    We then know that $$r_k^(n)=expbigg[fracipin(2k-1)bigg]$$
    Then we define
    $$S_n=r_k^(n):kin[1,n]capBbb N$$
    So we have that
    $$frac1x^n+1=prod_rin S_nfrac1x-r=prod_k=1^nfrac1x-r_k^(n)$$
    Then we assume that we can write
    $$prod_rin S_nfrac1x-r=sum_rin S_nfracb(r)x-r$$
    Multiplying both sides by $prod_ain S_n(x-a)$,
    $$1=sum_rin S_nb(r)prod_ain S_n\ aneq r(x-a)$$
    So for any $omegain S_n$,
    $$1=b(omega)prod_ain S_n\ aneq omega(omega-a)$$
    $$b(omega)=prod_ain S_n\ aneq omegafrac1omega-a$$
    $$b(r_k^(n))=prod_p=1\ pneq k^nfrac1r_k^(n)-r_p^(n)$$
    So we know that
    $$I_n=int_0^1fracmathrmdx1+x^n=sum_k=1^nb(r_k^(n))int_0^1fracmathrmdxx-r_k^(n)$$
    $$I_n=sum_k=1^nb(r_k^(n))logbigg|fracr_k^(n)-1r_k^(n)bigg|$$
    $$I_n=sum_k=1^nlogbigg|fracr_k^(n)-1r_k^(n)bigg|prod_p=1\ pneq k^nfrac1r_k^(n)-r_p^(n)$$
    So we have
    $$int_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrmdx=log2-n+nsum_k=1^nlogbigg|fracr_k^(n)-1r_k^(n)bigg|prod_p=1\ pneq k^nfrac1r_k^(n)-r_p^(n)$$
    along with a plethora of other identities...

    Here's another, quicker, method (I also don't know if this one works)



    Using the same $r_k^(n)$ as last time, we apply the $logprod_ia_i=sum_ilog a_i$ property to see that
    $$log(1+x^n)=logprod_k=1^n(x-r_k^(n))=sum_k=1^nlog(x-r_k^(n))$$
    So
    $$I_n=int_0^1log(1+x^n)mathrm dx=sum_k=1^nint_0^1log(x-r_k^(n))mathrm dx$$
    This last integral boils down to
    $$beginalign
    int_0^1log(x-a)mathrm dx=&alogfraca1+a+log(1-a)-1\
    =&logfraca^a(1-a)e(1+a)^a
    endalign$$

    So
    $$I_n=sum_rin S_nlogfracr^r(1-r)e(1+r)^r$$
    And you know how I love product representations, so we again use $logprod_ia_i=sum_ilog a_i$ to see that
    $$
    I_n=logprod_rin S_nfracr^r(1-r)e(1+r)^r\
    prod_rin S_nfracr^r(1-r)(1+r)^r=exp(n+I_n)
    $$

    Which I just think is really neat.

        prod_rin S_nfracr^r(1-r)(1+r)^r=exp(n+I_n)
        $$

        Which I just think is really neat.
