In today´s post We will prove the following two alternating infinite sums involving the reciprocal of the central binomial coefficient that appear in this Twitter post First recall previously proved here : (1) Dividing both sides of (1) by x we obtain (2) Now let in (2) (3) If we integrate both sides of the above equation from 0 to 1 we obtain (4) Let´s now evaluate the integral on the R.H.S. We used the fact that and and that Now plugging the result obtained back in (4) we conclude that Proving the first series. For the second one, we integrate (3) from 0 to 1/2 to get Let´s now evaluate the integral on the R.H.S. And we prove the second series. In the evaluation of the last integral we used that: and Proved previously in this post . Also for the integral Appendix: Proof: Let Then On the other hand Equating (A.1) and (A.2) we obtain the desired result.
