Analytical Evaluation of Ramanujan Series for $1/\pi$ via Degree-2, Degree-3, Degree-7, and Degree-19 Modular Transformations

Abstract

We provide an explicit analytical evaluation of Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$. Focusing on the singular moduli $k_{r}$ for $r \in \{5, 7, 13, 37\}$, we demonstrate that the underlying elliptic identities can be established through lower-degree modular transformations. Specifically, we resolve the case $r = 5$ via a combination of degree-2 and degree-3 modular transformations; the case $r = 7$ utilizing the modular transformation of degree 2; the case $r = 13$ via a combination of degree-2 and degree-7 modular transformations; and the case $r = 37$ via a combination of degree-2 and degree-19 modular transformations.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
