Brouncker gave the generalized continued fraction expansion 4/Pi = 1 + 1^2/(2 + 3^2/(2 + 5^2/(2 + ... ))). Osler showed that 2 + 1^2/(4 + 3^2/(4 + 5^2/(4 + ... ))) = L^2/Pi, where L is the lemniscate constant A062539. The sequence of convergents to Osler's continued fraction begins [2/1, 9/41, 543/252, 44115/20013, 4410105/2025, ...]. Here we list76, ... ]. The the (unreduced) numerators of thesethe convergents. See A254796are forin A001147, the sequence of denominators. See A254794 for the decimal expansion ofin L^2/PiA024199.
In extending Brouckner's result, Osler showed that 2 + 1^2/(4 + 3^2/(4 + 5^2/(4 + ... ))) = L^2/Pi, where L is the lemniscate constant A062539. The sequence of convergents to Osler's continued fraction begins [2/1, 9/4, 54/25, 441/200, 4410/2025, ...]. Here we list the (unreduced) numerators of these convergents. See A254796 for the sequence of denominators. See A254794 for the decimal expansion of L^2/Pi.
