【 摘 要 】

Using an integral transform with a mild singularity, we obtain series representations valid for specific regions in the complex plane involving trigonometric functions and the central binomial coefficient which are analogues of the types of series representations first studied by Ramanujan over certain intervals on the real line. We then study an exponential type series rapidly converging to the special values of L-functions and the Riemann zeta function. In this way, a new series converging to Catalan's constant with geometric rate of convergence less than a quarter is deduced. Further evaluations of some series involving hyperbolic functions are also given. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
