Using a simple Vi\`ete-like formula for $\pi$ based on the nested radicals $a_k = \sqrt{2 + a_{k-1}}$ and $a_1 = \sqrt{2}$, we derive a set of the recurrence relations for the constant $1$. Computational test shows that application of this…
Previously we have proposed a new method of transforming quotients into integer reciprocals in the Machin-like formulas for $\pi$. As a further development, here we show how to generate a multi-term Machin-like formula for $\pi$ with a…
We consider the well-studied pattern counting problem: given a permutation $\pi \in \mathbb{S}_n$ and an integer $k > 1$, count the number of order-isomorphic occurrences of every pattern $\tau \in \mathbb{S}_k$ in $\pi$. Our first result…
In previous papers we introduced a class of polynomials which follow the same recursive formula as the Lucas-Lehmer numbers, studying the distribution of their zeros and remarking that this distribution follows a sequence related to the…

We give an algorithm that produces all solutions of the equation $\sum_{i=1}^n 1/x_i = 1$ in integers of the form $2^a k^b$, where $k$ is a fixed positive integer that is not a power of $2$, $a$ is an element of $\{0,1,2\}$ that can vary…
In this paper, we present a fixed point method for high-precision computation of number $\pi$ based on the sine function. Let $P\in \mathbb{N}$. We define the function: \[ S\left(x\right) =x+\sum_{k=1}^{P}\left(\prod_{\ell=1}^{k-1}\frac…
We construct a countable family of multi-dimensional continued fraction algorithms, built out of five specific multidimensional continued fractions, and find a wide class of cubic irrational real numbers a so that either (a, a^2) or (a,…
An algorithm for computing /pi(N) is presented.It is shown that using a symmetry of natural numbers we can easily compute /pi(N).This method relies on the fact that counting the number of odd composites not exceeding N suffices to calculate…
We have rediscovered a simple algorithm to compute the mathematical constant \[ \pi=3.14159265\cdots. \] The algorithm had been known for a long time but it might not be recognized as a fast, practical algorithm. The time complexity of it…
Given positive integers $h, N$ satisfying $1 \leqslant h \leqslant 2N^2$, we define $T(h,N)$ to be the number of $2\times 2$ integer matrices with determinant equal to $h$ whose entries lie in $[-N,N]$. Our main result states that for any…
We say that the order of an algebraic number $A$ is the minimum of positive integers $k$ such that $A^k$ is rational. In this paper, we show that the number of algebraic numbers $A$ with order $k$ such that \[ A,\ A^A,\ A^{A^A},\ \ldots \]…

For $A,B\in\mathbb Z$, the Lucas sequence $u_n(A,B)\ (n=0,1,2,\ldots)$ are defined by $u_0(A,B)=0$, $u_1(A,B)=1$, and $u_{n+1}(A,B) = Au_n(A,B)-Bu_{n-1}(A,B)$ $(n=1,2,3,\ldots).$ For any odd prime $p$ and positive integer $n$, we establish…
