DPSE: Difference Power Space Extrapolation for π Computation in O(√n) Iterations

Authors: Xingfeng Chen

We present Difference Power Space Extrapolation (DPSE), a geometric method for computing the n decimal digits of π by combining multiple polygon observations in difference power space. The paper shows that DPSE should be understood as a higher-order development of the Difference-Power Cumulative Method (DPCM), rather than asan unrelated construction. For the polygon semiperimeter surrogate Sk = nksin(π/nk), the geometric increments ∆Sk = Sk+1 − Sk admit a structured boundary-layer expansion that can be cancelled by Richardson-type linear combinations. For fixed extrapolation orderW, this yields the error law Ek,W = O(4−(W+1)k), while the diagonal Neville sequence exhibits an approximately quadratic error exponent in the physical observation index k. Consequently, the required physical observation count for n correct decimal digits is reduced from lineargrowth to order O(√n), while preserving the low-memory character of geometric iteration. Numerical experiments include a direct milliondigit fingerprint verification.
