%N A079585 Decimal expansion of c = (7-sqrt(5))/2.

%C A079585 From _Amiram Eldar_, Jul 16 2021: (Start)
%C A079585 Sum_{k>=0} 1/F(2^k) is sometimes called "Millin series" after D. A. Millin, a high school student at Annville, Pennsylvania, who posed in 1974 the problem of proving that it equals (7-sqrt(5))/2. This identity was in fact already known to Lucas in 1878.
%C A079585 Mahler (1975) provided a false proof that this sum is transcendental. The mistake was corrected in Mahler (1976). (End)
%C A079585 The name "Millin" was a misprint of "Miller", the author of the problem was Dale A. Miller. His name was corrected in the solution to the problem (1976). - _Amiram Eldar_, Feb 29 2024
