Abstract
We evaluate some series with summands involving a single binomial coefficient . For example, we prove that Motivated by Galois theory, we introduce the so-called Duality Principle for irrational series of Ramanujan's type or Zeilberger's type, and apply it to find 26 new irrational series identities. For example, we conjecture that \begin{align*}&\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{(32(91\sqrt{33}-523))^{k}}{k^3\binom{2k}k^2\binom{3k}k} \left((91\sqrt{33}+891)k-33\sqrt{33}-225\right) \\&\qquad=320\left(\frac{11}3\sqrt{33}L_{-11}(2)-27L_{-3}(2)\right), \end{align*} where for any integer with the Kronecker symbol.
