A non-PSLQ route to BBP-type formulas

Number Theory 2016-03-29 v1

Abstract

BBP-type formulas are usually discovered experimentally, through computer searches. In this paper, however, starting with two simple generators, and hence without doing any computer searches, we derive a wide range of BBP-type formulas in general bases. Many previously discovered BBP-type formulas turn out to be particular cases of the formulas derived here.
