Infinite series for $\pi/3$ and other identities

History and Overview 2022-03-18 v1 Number Theory

Abstract

Using techniques from calculus, we combine classical identities for π\pi, ln2\operatorname{ln}2, and harmonic numbers, to arrive at a nice infinite series formula for π/3\pi/3 that does not appear to be well known. In addition, we give twenty-seven related identities involving π\pi and other irrational numbers. Posted in celebration of Pi Day 2022.
