Improving Stirling's formula
We calculated the optimal values of the real parameters and in such a way that the asymptotic formula
gives the best accurate values for . Our estimations improve the classical Stirling and Burnside's formulas and their several recent improvements due to the author and C. Mortici. Apart from their simplicities and beauties our formulas give very accurate values for factorial . Also, our results lead to new upper and lower bounds for the gamma function and recover some published inequalities for the gamma function
On some series involving the binomial coefficients
Using a simple transformation, we obtain much simpler forms for some series involving binomial coefficients derived by Necdet Batir. New evaluations are given and connections with Fibonacci numbers and the golden ratio are established. Finally we derive some Fibonacci and Lucas series involving the reciprocals of
