A curious series for $L(2,(\frac{-3}{\cdot}))$
Let
$$K:=L\left(2,\left(\frac{-3}{\cdot}\right)\right)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty\frac{(\frac k3)}{k^2}=\sum_{j=0}^\infty\left(\frac1{(3j+1)^2}-\frac1{(3j+2)^2}\right),$$ where $(\frac k3)$ is the Legendre ...

A new series for $\sqrt3/\pi$?
Recently, I conjectured the following identity:
$$\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{(66k^2+37k+4)\binom{2k}k\binom{3k}k\binom{4k}{2k}}{(2k+1)729^k}=\frac{27\sqrt3}{2\pi}.\tag{1}$$
This can be easily checked ...

In search of multiple expressions for a sequence
The sequence $a_n=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}k^24^k$ is listed on OEIS along with a couple of combinatorial interpretations. What interested me at the moment is the plethora of binomial single-sums for the ...
