%N Decimal expansion of Pi/sqrt(27).

%C Original name: Decimal expansion of sum(1/(n*binomial(2*n,n)), n=1..infinity).

%C This appears to be Pi/sqrt(27). See A111510. - _Marco Matosic_, Feb 27 2008

%C This is Pi*sqrt(3)/9 = A019676*A002194, see eq. (12) in Lehmer link. - _R. J. Mathar_, Mar 04 2009

%C Value of the Dirichlet L-series of the non-principal character modulo m=3 (A102283) at s=1. - _R. J. Mathar_, Oct 03 2011

%C Construct the largest possible circle inside a given equilateral triangle. This constant is the ratio of the area of the circle to the area of the triangle (A245670 is analogous square in triangle). - _Rick L. Shepherd_, Jul 29 2014

%F Equals Integral_{0..oo} 2*x/((x^2+1)*(x^4+x^2+1)) dx. - _Jean-François Alcover_, Sep 10 2013

%F From _Peter Bala_, Feb 16 2015: (Start)

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = Sum_{n >= 0} 1/((3*n + 1)*(3*n + 2)) = 1 - 1/2 + 1/4 - 1/5 + 1/7 - 1/8 + ....

%F Continued fraction: 1/(1 + 1^2/(1 + 2^2/(2 + 4^2/(1 + 5^2/(2 + ... + (3*n + 1)^2/(1 + (3*n + 2)^2/(2 + ... ))))))).

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = Integral_{t = 0..1/2} 1/(t^2 - t + 1) dt = Integral_{t = 0..1/2} (1 + t - t^3 - t^4)/(1 - t^6) dt.

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = (1/4)*Sum_{n >= 0} (-1/8)^n * (9*n + 5)/((3*n + 1)*(3*n + 2)).

%F BBP-type formulas:

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = Sum_{n >= 0} (1/64)^(n+1)*( 32/(6*n + 1) + 16/(6*n + 2) - 4/(6*n + 4) - 2/(6*n + 5) ) follows from the above integral representation.

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = Sum_{n >= 0} (-1)^n*(1/27)^(n+1)*( 9/(6*n + 1) + 9/(6*n + 2) + 6/(6*n + 3) + 3/(6*n + 4) + 1/(6*n + 5) ) follows from the result: Pi/3 = Integral_{t = 0..1/sqrt(3)} 1/(1 - sqrt(3)*t + t^2) dt. (End)

%F Equals Integral_{x=0..oo} x*I_0(x)*K_0(x)^2 dx over a triple product of modified Bessel functions. - _R. J. Mathar_, Oct 14 2015

%F From _Peter Bala_, Dec 09 2023: (Start)

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = Sum_{n >= 1} 1/(n*binomial(2*n,n)) = (1/6)*Sum_{n >= 1} 3^n/(n*binomial(2*n,n)) (see Lehmer, equation 12, and also p. 456).

%F Pi/sqrt(27) = (1/2)*Sum_{n >= 0} 1/((2*n + 1)*binomial(2*n,n)).
