Zusammenfassung: | We contribute to the zoo of dubious identities established by J.M. and P.B. Borwein in their 1992 paper, "Strange Series and High Precision Fraud" with five new entries, each of a different variety than the last. Some of these identities are again a high precision fraud and picking out the true from the bogus can be a challenging task with many unexpected twists along the way. This work is dedicated to the Borwein family, mathematicians extraordinaire with a propensity for the implausible. |
