We present a detailed error analysis of Ramanujan's most accurate approximation to the perimeter of an ellipse.
In this article we present evaluations of continued fractions studied by Ramanujan. More precisely we give the complete polynomial equations of Rogers-Ramanujan and other continued fractions, using tools from the elementary theory of the…
It is well known that there is no closed form analytic expression for the perimeter of an ellipse. In 1927, Srinivasa Ramanujan provides two approximations to the perimeter of an ellipse that are amazingly accurate. However, he does not…
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…
In this article we give evaluations of the two complete elliptic integrals $K$ and $E$ in the form of Ramanujans type-$\pi$ formulas. The result is a formula for $\Gamma(1/4)^2\pi^{-3/2}$ with accuracy about 120 digits per term.
In this paper we present experimental ways of evaluating Ramanujan`s quantities which as someone can see are related with algebraic numbers. The good thing with algebraic numbers is that can be found in a closed form, from there…
A simple integration by parts and telescopic cancellation leads to a rigorous derivation of the first 2 terms for the error in Ramanujan's asymptotic series for the nth partial sum of the harmonic series. Then Kummer's transformation gives…
A conjectured relation between Ramanujan's asymptotic approximations to the exponential function and the exponential integral is established. The proof involves Stirling numbers, second-order Eulerian numbers, modifications of both of…
In this article we present ways to evaluate certain sums, products and continued fractions using tools from the theory of elliptic functions. The specific results appear to be new, although similar ones can be found in the leterature; in…
We generalize Ramanujan method of approximating the smallest root of an equation which is found in Ramanujan Note books, Part-I. We provide simple analytical proof to study convergence of this method. Moreover, we study iterative approach…
We study Ramanujan's cubic continued fraction and explicit evaluations of theta-functions
We give the complete evaluation of the first derivative of the Ramanujans cubic continued fraction using Elliptic functions. The Elliptic functions are easy to handle and give the results in terms of Gamma functions and radicals from…
This note discusses elliptic functions in Ramanujan's work.
In some recent papers, the authors considered regular continued fractions of the form \[ [a_{0};\underbrace{a,...,a}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{2},...,a^{2}}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{3},...,a^{3}}_{m}, ... ], \] where $a_{0} \geq 0$, $a \geq 2$ and $m…
The goal of this paper is to formulate a systematical method for constructing the fastest possible continued fraction approximations of a class of functions. The main tools are the multiple-correction method, the generalized Mortici's lemma…
If a continued fraction $K_{n=1}^{\infty} a_{n}/b_{n}$ is known to converge but its limit is not easy to determine, it may be easier to use an extension of $K_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n}/b_{n}$ to find the limit. By an extension of…
Ramanujan's approximation to the exponential function is reexamined with the help of Perron's saddle-point method. This allows for a wide generalization that includes the results of Buckholtz, and where all the asymptotic expansion…
In this article we derive an approximation inequality for continued radicals, generalizing an inequality of Herschfeld for continued square roots to arbitrary radicals, which is useful in exploring convergence issues and obtaining…
We study the properties of a general continued fraction of Ramanujan. In some certain cases we evaluate it completely.
We use some general properties, presented in previous work, to evaluate special cases of integrals relating Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction, eta function and elliptic integrals.
