In this paper, we present a fixed point method for the arctangent based on sine and cosine. Let $t\in \mathbb{R}^{+}$ and $P\in \mathbb{N}$. We define: \[T\left(x\right)=x-\sum_{k=1}^{P}\,\frac{\left(-1\right)^{k-1}}{2\,k-1} \left(\frac…

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…
In this work, we develop a new iterative method for computing the digits of $\pi$ by argument reduction of the tangent function. This method combines a modified version of the iterative formula for $\pi$ with squared convergence that we…
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…

The prime-counting function $\pi(x)$ which returns the number of primes smaller or equal to a given number is a topic of interest in number theory. An algorithm based on a cyclic group isomorphic to $Z/nZ$, the so-called $Z$-functions, was…
Measuring how quickly iterative methods converge is essential in computational mathematics, but current approaches have significant limitations. Q-order analysis requires strict smoothness conditions, while R-order analysis lacks precision…
We present a new and simple method for the determination of the pointwise H\"{o}lder exponent of Riemann's function $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} n^{-2}\sin(\pi n^{2} x)$ at every point of the real line. In contrast to earlier approaches, where…
The double-exponential Sinc-collocation method is known as a super-accurate method for solving initial value problems of ordinary differential equations, for which the error decreases almost exponentially as a function of the number of…
We establish the exact-order estimates of uniform approximations by the Zygmund sums $Z^{s}_{n-1}$ of $2\pi$-periodic continuous functions $f$ from the classes $C^{\psi}_{\beta,p}$.These classes are defined by the convolutions of functions…
We describe a procedure based on the iteration of an initial function by an appropriated operator, acting on continuous functions, in order to get a fixed point. This fixed point will be a calibrated subaction for the doubling map on the…
