In my previous post, I defined

$$f(\color{blue}{m},\color{red}{n})= \sqrt{2\color{blue}{-}\sqrt{2\color{blue}{-}\cdots\color{blue}{-} \sqrt{2\color{red}{+}\sqrt{2\color{red}{+}\cdots\color{red}{+} \sqrt{2\color{blue}{-}\sqrt{2\color{blue}{-}\cdots\color{blue}{-} \sqrt{2\color{red}{+}\sqrt{2\color{red}{+}\cdots\color{red}{+} \sqrt{2\color{blue}{-}\cdots}}}}}}}}}$$ where there are $\color{blue}{m}$ consecutive "minus signs", followed by $\color{red}{n}$ consecutive "plus signs", and so on.

I will list some interesting values of $f(m,n)$ where $m = (n+1)$

$$ \begin{align} f(1,0)&=2\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\\ f(2,1)&=2\cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{7}\right)\\ f(3,2)&=2\cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{11}\right)\\ f(4,3)&=2\cos\left(\frac{40\pi}{127}\right)\\ f(5,4)&=2\cos\left(\frac{176\pi}{513}\right)\\ \end{align} $$

$f(n+1,n) = 2\cos(\frac{2^n\times2^{n+1}+(-1)^n}{3\times2^{2n+1}+(-1)^n})\pi$

EDITOR's note: the OP will be responsible for fixing the rest of his post.

Here is the beautiful part

When $n = 0$

$$2\cos(\frac{2^n\times2^{n+1}+(-1)^n}{3\times2^{2n+1}+(-1)^n})\pi = 2\cos(\frac{\pi}{3})$$

When $n = \infty$

$$\lim_{n\to\infty} 2\cos(\frac{2^n\times2^{n+1}+(-1)^n}{3\times2^{2n+1}+(-1)^n})\pi = 2\cos(\frac{\pi}{3})$$

Therefore cosine angle for $n = 0$ and $n = \infty$ in solving above specific pattern of cyclic infinite nested square roots of 2, the result is same i.e. $2\cos\frac{\pi}{3}$

It is amazing to note that between $0$ and $\infty$ we get so many finite values of cosine angles solving cyclic infinite nested square roots of 2 of above specific pattern.

Question: Significance of such cyclic infinite nested square roots of 2 ?

Partially I got the answer for Numerator which forms specific number sequence as here

In the denominator of radian value, it is 3,7,33,127,513,... is the integer sequence, I'm not able to identify. Please help me in this regard. Thanks in advance.

  • Well, the catch "interesting" tells me that they don't just want me to do their work, they want me to want to do their work. LOL. Probably, it would be wiser to explain their "cin" in a mathematically meaningful way, and hope somebody is interested in the problem without ridiculous propaganda. – NoNames Feb 27 '21 at 19:33

    Cyclic infinite nested square roots of 2 simply as $cin\sqrt2$. I have already explained in the link how to solve these $cin\sqrt2$. Difficult to get a better terminology. It will be very long post if I explain each and every thing in single post. Sorry for inconvenience. – Sivakumar Krishnamoorthi Feb 27 '21 at 19:40
  • Sorry for being blunt, but the main problem of this post (as of many others at this site) is: why bother? Even if you find that fascinating without any apparent reason, you might want to try to explain to others why. – NoNames Feb 27 '21 at 19:49
  • It's actually very interesting.... if you could present your work using concise mathematical notation. I will try to help you get started, in an edit I will make shortly. I won't have time to edit the whole thing, so please, try to get the idea, and continue. I'm sure the community will be interested in well-presented, curious, maths ideas. – Benjamin Wang Feb 27 '21 at 20:29
  • There you go. 15 minutes of my time. I hope you will fix the rest, and also your previous post. – Benjamin Wang Feb 27 '21 at 20:48

    @BenjaminWang. Thanks a lot for edit. I had difficulty in notation as I'm in unrelated field. – Sivakumar Krishnamoorthi Feb 28 '21 at 01:18
