Dubious Identities: A Visit to the Borwein Zoo

• Published in 2023
• Added on 2023-10-09

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.
