The complete $p$-elliptic integrals are generalizations of the complete elliptic integrals by the generalized trigonometric function $\sin_p{\theta}$ and its half-period $\pi_p$. It is shown, only for $p=4$, that the generalized…
We suggest a continued fraction origin to Ramanujan's approximation to {(a-b)/(a+b)}^2 in terms of the arc length of an ellipse with semiaxes a and b. Moreover, we discuss the asymptotic accuracy of the approximation.
For $r\in(0,1)$, the function $\K(r)=\int_0^{\pi/2}(1-r^2\sin^2t)^{-1/2}dt$ is known as the complete elliptic integral of the first kind. In this paper, we prove the absolute monotonicity of two functions involving $\K(r)$. As a…
The perimeter of an ellipse has no exact closed-form expression in terms of elementary functions, and numerous approximations have been proposed since the eighteenth century. Classical formulas by Fagnano, Euler, and Ramanujan, as well as…
We give closed form evaluations for many families of integrals, whose integrands contain algebraic functions of the complete elliptic integrals $K$ and $E$. Our methods exploit the rich structures connecting complete elliptic integrals,…

We compute the critical $L$-values of some weight 3, 4, or 5 modular forms, by transforming them into integrals of the complete elliptic integral $K$. In doing so, we prove closed form formulas for some moments of $K'^3$. Many of our…
In this paper we construct approximations for the Caputo derivative of order $1-\alpha,2-\alpha,2$ and $3-\alpha$. The approximations have weights $0.5\left((k+1)^{-\alpha}-(k-1)^{-\alpha}\right)/\Gamma(1-\alpha)$ and…
In this work, we consider the properties of the two-term Machin-like formula and develop an algorithm for computing digits of $\pi$ by using its rational approximation. In this approximation, both terms are constructed by using a…
