Throughout more than two millennia many formulas have been obtained, some of them beautiful, to calculate the number pi. Among them, we can find series, infinite products, expansions as continued fractions and expansions using radicals.…
It is well known that the set of origami constructible numbers is larger than the classical straight-edge and compass constructible numbers. However, the Huzita-Justin-Hatori origami constructible numbers remain algebraic so that the…
Transcendental numbers play an important role in many areas of science. This paper contains a short survey on transcendental numbers and some relations among them. New inequalities for transcendental numbers are stated in Section 2 and…
\begin{abstract} $\pi$, the ratio between a circumference and is radius, is an irrational transcendental number. Fractal analysis is used here to show that $\pi$\textquoteright{s} digit sequence corresponds to a uniformly distributed random…
The emergent field of probabilistic numerics has thus far lacked clear statistical principals. This paper establishes Bayesian probabilistic numerical methods as those which can be cast as solutions to certain inverse problems within the…
Given any two sequences of complex numbers, we establish simple relations between their binomial convolution and the binomial convolution of their individual binomial transforms. We employ these relations to derive new identities involving…
By employing certain extended classical summation theorems, several surprising \pi and other formulae are displayed.
We use the notion of Borel generators to give alternative methods for computing standard invariants, such as associated primes, Hilbert series, and Betti numbers, of Borel ideals. Because there are generally few Borel generators relative to…
Let $b \ge 2$ be an integer. We prove that the $b$-adic expansion of every irrational algebraic number cannot have low complexity. Furthermore, we establish that irrational morphic numbers are transcendental, for a wide class of morphisms.…
In terms of the hypergeometric method, we give the extensions of two known series for $\pi$. Further, other twenty-nine summation formulas for $\pi$, $\pi^2$ and $1/\pi$ with free parameters are also derived in the same way.
We provide direct elementary proofs of several explicit expressions for Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials. As a byproduct of our method of proof, we provide natural definitions for generalized Bernoulli numbers and polynomials of…
The general formulas for finding the quantity of all primitive and nonprimitive triples generated by the given number x have been proposed. Also the formulas for finding the complete quantity of the representations of the integers as a…
This paper presents a detailed, self-contained proof of a BBP-type formula for $\pi^2$ expressed in the golden ratio base, $\phi$. The formula was discovered empirically by the author in 2004. The proof presented herein is built upon a…
We present a proof that all transcendental numbers that are needed for the calculation of the master integrals for three-loop vacuum Feynman diagrams can be obtained by calculating diagrams with an even simpler topology, the topology of…
A doubly infinite set of series expansion for $1/\pi$ are reported. They follow trivially from a formal expansion for the quotient of the values taken by the gamma function for two (complex) arguments differing by an integer plus one half,…
The running coupling of a generic field theory can be described through a separable differential equation involving the corresponding $\beta$-function. Only the first loop order can be solved analytically in terms of well-known functions,…
We present a new method for producing series for $1/\pi$ and other constants using Legendre's relation, starting from a generation function that can be factorised into two elliptic $K$'s; this way we avoid much of modular theory or creative…
Using a straightforward elementary approach, we derive numerous infinite arctangent summation formulas involving Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. While most of the results obtained are new, a couple of celebrated results appear as particular…
In this article we developed a special topic of our pure-mathematics papers concerning the hypergeometric theory. Based upon a Roberts's reduction approach of hyperelliptic integrals to elliptic ones and on the simultaneous multivariable…
Possible transcendental nature of Euler's constant $\gamma$ has been the focus of study for sometime now. One possible approach is to consider $\gamma$ not in isolation, but as an element of the infinite family of generalised Euler-Briggs…
