An iteration procedure for a two-term Machin-like formula for pi with small Lehmer's measure

Published 3 Jun 2017 in math.GM | (1706.08835v3)

Abstract: In this paper we present a two-term Machin-like formula for pi [\frac{\pi}{4} = 2{k - 1}\arctan\left(\frac{1}{u_1}\right) + \arctan\left(\frac{1}{u_2}\right)] with small Lehmer's measure e≈0.245319e \approx 0.245319 and describe iteration procedure for simplified determination of the required rational number u2u_2 at k=27k = 27 and u1=85445659u_1 = 85445659. With these results we obtained a formula that has no irrational numbers involved in computation and provides $16$ digits of pi at each increment by one of the summation terms. This is the smallest Lehmer's measure ever reported for the Machin-like formulas for pi.
