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 and describe iteration procedure for simplified determination of the required rational number at and . 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.
