The present note generalizes Wallis’ formula, 2  =  . 7 6 . 5 6 . 5 4 . 3 4 . 3 2 . 1 2 , using the EulerMascheroni constant g and the Glaisher-Kinkelin constant A: 2 ln 2 4 = 3 3 2 . 1 2 . 5 4 3 4

A Steiner star for a set P of n points in R connects an arbitrary center point to all points of P , while a star connects a point p ∈ P to the remaining n−1 points of P . All connections are realized by straight line segments. Fekete and Meijer showed that the minimum star is at most √ 2 times longer than the minimum Steiner star for any finite point configuration in R. The maximum ratio betwee...

One of the earliest examples of analytic representations for π is given by an infinite product provided by Wallis in 1655. The modern literature often presents this evaluation based on the integral formula 2 π ∫ ∞ 0 dx (x + 1) = 1 2 (

We introduce a parameter z for the well-known Wallis’ inequality, and improve results on Wallis’ inequality are proposed. Recent results by other authors are also improved.
