COMMENT

sum(2*(-1)^n/((4*n+3)*(4*n+5)), n=0..infinity) = Pi*sqrt(2)/4-1

1/3-1/5-1/7+1/9+1/11-1/13-1/15+1/17+1/19--++... = Pi*sqrt(2)/4-1 = A093954-1.

If A=[A158487] 64*n.^2-8 (n>0, 56, 248, 568,.,); Y=[A005843] 2*n (n>0, 2, 4, 6,.,); X = [A141759] 16*n^2-1 (n>0, 15, 63, 143, .,), we have, for all terms, Pell's equation X^2-A*Y^2=1. Example: 15^2-56*2^2=1; 63^2-248*4^2=1; 143^2-568*6^2=1. [From Vincenzo Librandi (vincenzo.librandi(AT)tin.it), Mar 20 2009]
