The golden ratio, Fibonacci numbers and BBP-type formulas

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We derive interesting arctangent identities involving the golden ratio, Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers. Binary BBP-type formulas for the arctangents of certain odd powers of the golden ratio are also derived, for the first time in the literature. Finally we derive golden-ratio-base BBP-type formulas for some mathematical constants, including ππ, log⁡2\log 2, log⁡ϕ\logϕ and 2 arctan⁡2\sqrt 2\,\arctan\sqrt 2. The ϕ−ϕ-nary BBP-type formulas derived here are considerably simpler than similar results contained in earlier literature.
