Borwein's algorithm

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Borwein's algorithm was devised by Jonathan and Peter Borwein to calculate the value of ${\displaystyle 1/\pi }${\displaystyle 1/\pi }. This and other algorithms can be found in the book Pi and the AGM – A Study in Analytic Number Theory and Computational Complexity.^[1]

These two are examples of a Ramanujan–Sato series. The related Chudnovsky algorithm uses a discriminant with class number 1.

Start by setting^[2]

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}A&=212175710912{\sqrt {61}}+1657145277365\\B&=13773980892672{\sqrt {61}}+107578229802750\\C&=\left(5280\left(236674+30303{\sqrt {61}}\right)\right)^{3}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}A&=212175710912{\sqrt {61}}+1657145277365\\B&=13773980892672{\sqrt {61}}+107578229802750\\C&=\left(5280\left(236674+30303{\sqrt {61}}\right)\right)^{3}\end{aligned}}}

Then

${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{\pi }}=12\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {(-1)^{n}(6n)!,円(A+nB)}{(n!)^{3}(3n)!,円C^{n+{\frac {1}{2}}}}}}${\displaystyle {\frac {1}{\pi }}=12\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {(-1)^{n}(6n)!,円(A+nB)}{(n!)^{3}(3n)!,円C^{n+{\frac {1}{2}}}}}}

Each additional term of the partial sum yields approximately 25 digits.

Start by setting^[3]

Then

${\displaystyle {\frac {\sqrt {-C^{3}}}{\pi }}=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{{\frac {(6n)!}{(3n)!(n!)^{3}}}{\frac {A+nB}{C^{3n}}}}}${\displaystyle {\frac {\sqrt {-C^{3}}}{\pi }}=\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{{\frac {(6n)!}{(3n)!(n!)^{3}}}{\frac {A+nB}{C^{3n}}}}}

Each additional term of the series yields approximately 50 digits.

Start by setting^[4]

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\sqrt {2}}\\b_{0}&=0\\p_{0}&=2+{\sqrt {2}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\sqrt {2}}\\b_{0}&=0\\p_{0}&=2+{\sqrt {2}}\end{aligned}}}

Then iterate

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{n+1}&={\frac {{\sqrt {a_{n}}}+{\frac {1}{\sqrt {a_{n}}}}}{2}}\\b_{n+1}&={\frac {(1+b_{n}){\sqrt {a_{n}}}}{a_{n}+b_{n}}}\\p_{n+1}&={\frac {(1+a_{n+1}),円p_{n}b_{n+1}}{1+b_{n+1}}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{n+1}&={\frac {{\sqrt {a_{n}}}+{\frac {1}{\sqrt {a_{n}}}}}{2}}\\b_{n+1}&={\frac {(1+b_{n}){\sqrt {a_{n}}}}{a_{n}+b_{n}}}\\p_{n+1}&={\frac {(1+a_{n+1}),円p_{n}b_{n+1}}{1+b_{n+1}}}\end{aligned}}}

Then p_k converges quadratically to π; that is, each iteration approximately doubles the number of correct digits. The algorithm is not self-correcting; each iteration must be performed with the desired number of correct digits for π's final result.

Start by setting

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\frac {1}{3}}\\s_{0}&={\frac {{\sqrt {3}}-1}{2}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\frac {1}{3}}\\s_{0}&={\frac {{\sqrt {3}}-1}{2}}\end{aligned}}}

Then iterate

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}r_{k+1}&={\frac {3}{1+2\left(1-s_{k}^{3}\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}}}\\s_{k+1}&={\frac {r_{k+1}-1}{2}}\\a_{k+1}&=r_{k+1}^{2}a_{k}-3^{k}\left(r_{k+1}^{2}-1\right)\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}r_{k+1}&={\frac {3}{1+2\left(1-s_{k}^{3}\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}}}\\s_{k+1}&={\frac {r_{k+1}-1}{2}}\\a_{k+1}&=r_{k+1}^{2}a_{k}-3^{k}\left(r_{k+1}^{2}-1\right)\end{aligned}}}

Then a_k converges cubically to ⁠1/π⁠; that is, each iteration approximately triples the number of correct digits.

Start by setting^[5]

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&=2\left({\sqrt {2}}-1\right)^{2}\\y_{0}&={\sqrt {2}}-1\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&=2\left({\sqrt {2}}-1\right)^{2}\\y_{0}&={\sqrt {2}}-1\end{aligned}}}

Then iterate

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}y_{k+1}&={\frac {1-\left(1-y_{k}^{4}\right)^{\frac {1}{4}}}{1+\left(1-y_{k}^{4}\right)^{\frac {1}{4}}}}\\a_{k+1}&=a_{k}\left(1+y_{k+1}\right)^{4}-2^{2k+3}y_{k+1}\left(1+y_{k+1}+y_{k+1}^{2}\right)\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}y_{k+1}&={\frac {1-\left(1-y_{k}^{4}\right)^{\frac {1}{4}}}{1+\left(1-y_{k}^{4}\right)^{\frac {1}{4}}}}\\a_{k+1}&=a_{k}\left(1+y_{k+1}\right)^{4}-2^{2k+3}y_{k+1}\left(1+y_{k+1}+y_{k+1}^{2}\right)\end{aligned}}}

Then a_k converges quartically against ⁠1/π⁠; that is, each iteration approximately quadruples the number of correct digits. The algorithm is not self-correcting; each iteration must be performed with the desired number of correct digits for π's final result.

One iteration of this algorithm is equivalent to two iterations of the Gauss–Legendre algorithm. A proof of these algorithms can be found here:^[6]

Start by setting

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\frac {1}{2}}\\s_{0}&=5\left({\sqrt {5}}-2\right)={\frac {5}{\phi ^{3}}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\frac {1}{2}}\\s_{0}&=5\left({\sqrt {5}}-2\right)={\frac {5}{\phi ^{3}}}\end{aligned}}}

where ${\displaystyle \phi ={\tfrac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}}${\displaystyle \phi ={\tfrac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}} is the golden ratio. Then iterate

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}x_{n+1}&={\frac {5}{s_{n}}}-1\\y_{n+1}&=\left(x_{n+1}-1\right)^{2}+7\\z_{n+1}&=\left({\frac {1}{2}}x_{n+1}\left(y_{n+1}+{\sqrt {y_{n+1}^{2}-4x_{n+1}^{3}}}\right)\right)^{\frac {1}{5}}\\a_{n+1}&=s_{n}^{2}a_{n}-5^{n}\left({\frac {s_{n}^{2}-5}{2}}+{\sqrt {s_{n}\left(s_{n}^{2}-2s_{n}+5\right)}}\right)\\s_{n+1}&={\frac {25}{\left(z_{n+1}+{\frac {x_{n+1}}{z_{n+1}}}+1\right)^{2}s_{n}}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}x_{n+1}&={\frac {5}{s_{n}}}-1\\y_{n+1}&=\left(x_{n+1}-1\right)^{2}+7\\z_{n+1}&=\left({\frac {1}{2}}x_{n+1}\left(y_{n+1}+{\sqrt {y_{n+1}^{2}-4x_{n+1}^{3}}}\right)\right)^{\frac {1}{5}}\\a_{n+1}&=s_{n}^{2}a_{n}-5^{n}\left({\frac {s_{n}^{2}-5}{2}}+{\sqrt {s_{n}\left(s_{n}^{2}-2s_{n}+5\right)}}\right)\\s_{n+1}&={\frac {25}{\left(z_{n+1}+{\frac {x_{n+1}}{z_{n+1}}}+1\right)^{2}s_{n}}}\end{aligned}}}

Then a_k converges quintically to ⁠1/π⁠ (that is, each iteration approximately quintuples the number of correct digits), and the following condition holds:

${\displaystyle 0<a_{n}-{\frac {1}{\pi }}<16\cdot 5^{n}\cdot e^{-5^{n}}\pi ,円\!}${\displaystyle 0<a_{n}-{\frac {1}{\pi }}<16\cdot 5^{n}\cdot e^{-5^{n}}\pi ,円\!}

Start by setting

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\frac {1}{3}}\\r_{0}&={\frac {{\sqrt {3}}-1}{2}}\\s_{0}&=\left(1-r_{0}^{3}\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}a_{0}&={\frac {1}{3}}\\r_{0}&={\frac {{\sqrt {3}}-1}{2}}\\s_{0}&=\left(1-r_{0}^{3}\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}\end{aligned}}}

Then iterate

${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}t_{n+1}&=1+2r_{n}\\u_{n+1}&=\left(9r_{n}\left(1+r_{n}+r_{n}^{2}\right)\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}\\v_{n+1}&=t_{n+1}^{2}+t_{n+1}u_{n+1}+u_{n+1}^{2}\\w_{n+1}&={\frac {27\left(1+s_{n}+s_{n}^{2}\right)}{v_{n+1}}}\\a_{n+1}&=w_{n+1}a_{n}+3^{2n-1}\left(1-w_{n+1}\right)\\s_{n+1}&={\frac {\left(1-r_{n}\right)^{3}}{\left(t_{n+1}+2u_{n+1}\right)v_{n+1}}}\\r_{n+1}&=\left(1-s_{n+1}^{3}\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}\end{aligned}}}${\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}t_{n+1}&=1+2r_{n}\\u_{n+1}&=\left(9r_{n}\left(1+r_{n}+r_{n}^{2}\right)\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}\\v_{n+1}&=t_{n+1}^{2}+t_{n+1}u_{n+1}+u_{n+1}^{2}\\w_{n+1}&={\frac {27\left(1+s_{n}+s_{n}^{2}\right)}{v_{n+1}}}\\a_{n+1}&=w_{n+1}a_{n}+3^{2n-1}\left(1-w_{n+1}\right)\\s_{n+1}&={\frac {\left(1-r_{n}\right)^{3}}{\left(t_{n+1}+2u_{n+1}\right)v_{n+1}}}\\r_{n+1}&=\left(1-s_{n+1}^{3}\right)^{\frac {1}{3}}\end{aligned}}}

Then a_k converges nonically to ⁠1/π⁠; that is, each iteration approximately multiplies the number of correct digits by nine.^[7]
