COMMENTS

This is one of a set of related number theory constants. It is conjectured to be irrational. T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com) extended the digits of this constant to 100 digits accuracy, when J. V. Post had discovered it and found it to 8 digits. The reciprocal Fibonacci constant sum 1/F(n) ~ 3.35988566 is given in A079586, queried as to irrationality by Erdos and proved irrational by Andre-Jeannin (1989). The reciprocal Lucas constant sum 1/L(n) ~ 1.96285817 is given in A093540. Sum 1/L(n)^2 converges because each term is equal or less than the corresponding term in the converging reciprocal Lucas constant. The sum 1/F(n)^2 is given in A105393.
