We present a finite-order system of recurrence relations for a permanent of circulant matrices containing a band of k any-value diagonals on top of a uniform matrix (for k = 1, 2, and 3) as well as the method for deriving such recurrence…
In this article, we develop nested representations for cosine and inverse cosine functions, which is a generalization of Vi\`{e}te's formula for $\pi$. We explore a natural inverse relationship between these representations and develop…
In this paper we obtained several properties that the characteristic polynomials of the unit-primitive matrix satisfy. In addition, using these properties we have shown that the recurrence relation given as in the formula (1) is true. In…
In this work, we obtain an iterative formula that can be used for computing digits of $\pi$ and nested radicals of kind $c_n/\sqrt{2 - c_{n - 1}}$, where $c_0 = 0$ and $c_n = \sqrt{2 + c_{n - 1}}$. We also show how with the help of this…

Approximate relations between $e$ and $\pi$ are reviewed, some new connections being established. Nilakantha's series expansion for $\pi$ is transformed to accelerate its convergence. Its comparison with the standard inverse-factorial…

Recurrence formulae for arbitrary hydrogenic radial matrix elements are obtained in the Dirac form of relativistic quantum mechanics. Our approach is inspired on the relativistic extension of the second hypervirial method that has been…
By means of a variational approach we find new series representations both for well known mathematical constants, such as $\pi$ and the Catalan constant, and for mathematical functions, such as the Riemann zeta function. The series that we…
A re-calculation of a known family of formulas of PI is carried out, revisiting the old Archimedes' algorithm. This allows to identify a general family equation and three new simple formulas of Pi in terms of the golden ratio PHI in the…

The Ap\'ery numbers may be defined by a cubic three-term recurrence relation, that is, a three-term relation where the coefficients are polynomials in the index of degree $3$. In this work, we first provide a systematic review of Ap\'ery…
Let $(a_n), (b_n)$ be linear recursive sequences of integers with characteristic polynomials $A(X),B(X)\in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ respectively. Assume that $A(X)$ has a dominating and simple real root $\alpha$, while $B(X)$ has a pair of conjugate…
In this work, we prove the irrationality of $\pi$ based on the nested radicals with roots of $2$ of kind $c_k = \sqrt{2 + c_{k - 1}}$ and $c_0 = 0$. Sample computations showing how the rational approximation tends to $\pi$ with increasing…
Recently obtained recurrence formulae for relativistic hydrogenic radial matrix elements are cast in a simpler and perhaps more useful form. This is achieved with the help of a new relation between the $r^a$ and the $\beta r^b$ terms…
A nondecreasing sequence of positive integers is $(\alpha,\beta)$-Conolly, or Conolly-like for short, if for every positive integer $m$ the number of times that $m$ occurs in the sequence is $\alpha + \beta r_m$, where $r_m$ is $1$ plus the…
