Background and term links. These are mostly Wikipedia entries. Mathworld is also an excellent source of information for many of the topics:
"The two constants are also related by the pair of series (see Sondow 2005 #2)
where N1(n) and N0(n) are the number of 1's and 0's, respectively, in the base 2 expansion of n."
This is interesting because the Thue-Morse sequence can be found by modular arithmetic on the base 2 expansion of n (sum of the first n digits). From Thue-Morse:
"To compute the nth element tn, write the number n in binary. If the number of ones in this binary expansion is odd then tn = 1, if even then tn = 0. For this reason John H. Conway et al. call numbers n satisfying tn = 1 odious numbers and numbers for which tn = 0 evil numbers."
Is there a closed form functional relationship between the Prouhet-Thue-Morse constant and the Euler-Massheroni constant?
