%F arctan(1/3) = (1/3)*Sum_{k >= 0} (-1)^k/((2*k + 1)*9^k).

%F Define a pair of integer sequences A(n) = 9^n*(2*n + 1)!/n! and B(n) = A(n)*Sum_{k = 0..n} (-1)^k/((2*k + 1)*9^k). Both sequences satisfy the same recurrence equation u(n) = (32*n + 20)*u(n-1) + 36*(2*n - 1)^2*u(n-2). From this observation we find the continued fraction expansion arctan(1/3) = (1/3)*(1 - 2/(54 + 36*3^2/(84 + 36*5^2/(116 + ... + 36*(2*n - 1)^2/((32*n + 20) + ...))))).

%F arctan(1/3) = (3/10) * Sum_{k >= 0} (2/5)^k/( (2*k + 1)*binomial(2*k,k) ).

%F Define a pair of integer sequences C(n) = 10^n*(2*n + 1)!/n! and D(n) = C(n)*Sum_{k = 0..n} (2/5)^k/( (2*k + 1)*binomial(2*k,k) ). Both sequences satisfy the same recurrence equation u(n) = (44*n + 20)*u(n-1) - 80*n*(2*n - 1)*u(n-2). From this observation we obtain the continued fraction expansion arctan(1/3) = (3/10)*( 1 + 4/(60 - 480/(108 - 1200/(152 - ... - 80*n*(2*n - 1)/((44*n + 20) - ...))))). (End)

%F arctan(1/3) = Sum_{k>=0} arctan((L(4k+2)/F(4k+2)^2) where L=A000032 and F=A000045. See also A033890 and A246453. - _Michel Marcus_, Mar 29 2016

%F From _Amiram Eldar_, Aug 09 2020: (Start)

%F Equals Sum_{k>=2} arctan(1/(2*k^2)) = Sum_{k>=2} (-1)^k arctan(2/k^2).

%F Equals Integral_{x=1..2} 1/(x^2 + 1) dx. (End)

%F Equals Sum_{n>=0} arctan(1/F(2*n+5)) = Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n arctan(F(2*n+1)) where F=A000045. - _Gleb Koloskov_, Oct 01 2021
