Abstract
New expressions and bounds for Catalan's and Apery's constants, derived from the half hyperbolic secant distribution, are presented. These constants are obtained by using expressions for the Lorenz curve, the Gini and Theil indices, convolutions and a mixture of distributions, among other approaches. The new expressions are presented both in terms of integral (simple and double) representation and also as an interesting series representation. Some of these features are well known, while others are new. In addition, some integral representations of Euler's numbers are obtained.
