Hello all symbolic calculation buffs,

Neither Maple nor Mathematica nor MuPAD is
able to simplify this expression directly...
within several hours at Core 2 duo ;)

product(cos(Pi*2^j/1023), j= 0..9)/
product(cos(Pi*2^j/1025), j= 0..9);

Is there a simplification wizard who can
to display a set of a CAS commands leading
to the exact answer?

Best wishes,

Prove

Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2-1)), j= 0..k)/Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2+1)),
j= 0..k)=-1;

Sir, I can summarize your answer in a single word,

An idyll ;)

I tried a lot of things but I was not able to simplify your
trigonometric expression
to -1 with Mathematica.

I really look forward to seeing how someone can show what do you want,
with Mathematica.
In the meantime I am very impressed by the usefulness of Maple's
function convert.

Does Mathematica have a function like Maple's "combine",
which combines products of trigonometric functions into sums?

Because

product(cos(Pi*2^j/1023), j= 0..9)/product(cos(Pi*2^j/1025), j= 0..9):
combine(%);
simplify(%);

also works in Maple...

Some code :

restart;
assume(d,integer,k,integer,2^k,integer);
print(Product(cos(Pi*2^j/1023), j= 0..9)/
Product(cos(Pi*2^j/1025), j= 0..9));
temp:=Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2-1)), j= 0..k)/
Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2+1)), j= 0..k);
EQ2:=Product(cos(Pi/d*2^j),j = 0 .. k) =
-2^(-k-1)*exp(I*Pi/d)*(-(exp(I*Pi/d)^2)^(2^k)+(exp(I*Pi/d)^2)^(-2^k))/(exp(I*Pi/d)^2-1);
print(`Substitute EQ2 into temp`);
temp:=subs(subs(d=2^k*2-1,EQ2),subs(d=2^k*2+1,EQ2),temp):
print('`Convert`',indets(temp,specfunc(anything,exp))):
temp:=(eval@subs)(exp=proc(x) exp(I*Pi)^(x/(I*Pi))
end,expand(temp,power)):
SIMP:=proc(E)
subs(map((x->x)=(x->op([1,1],x)^(op([1,2],x)*op(2,x))),select(evalb@proc(E)
is(op(2,E),integer)=true end,indets(E,(anything^anything)^anything))),E)
end:
SIMP2:=proc(E)
subs(map(proc(E) E=proc(E) local p; if type(E,`+`) then mul((-1)^p,p=E)
else (-1)^E fi end(frontend(convert,[op(2,E),parfrac,2^k]))
end,indets(E,(-1)^anything)),E);
end:
print(`Reduce & distribute exponents`);
Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2-1)), j= 0..k)/
Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2+1)), j= 0..k)=
(normal@SIMP2)(factor(combine(SIMP(temp),power)));

You are 100% right. I never had any doubt about your
personal math gift.

Also this concrete example is far from being kinda the
summit of Art of Computation. This concrete one is quite
obvious to a math-skilled human being.

Please note, however, that as I have emphasized repeatedly,
the Cyber Tester's challenges are NOT about human beings,
not about your or my resourcefulness, but about modern- and
next-generation computer algebra systems' potential to deal
with some objects in a *straightforward* way -- so that other
relatively math unskilled persons could use CASs' powers to
resolve the toughest industrial, educational and research
challenges coming.

By requesting to publish the explicit human-based solutions
we hope to create, to accumulate a solid stock of patterns
to be possibly used along with regular algorithms to handle
various math tasks automatically.

So the question remains,

Prove

Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2-1)), j= 0..k)/Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^k*2+1)),
j= 0..k)=-1;

Very nice. This technique works quite well for the generalized expression:

f := n -> mul(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n-1)),j=0..n-1)/mul(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n+1)),j=0..n-1):

simplify(convert(f(200),sin));

Very nice. This technique works quite well for the generalized expression:

f := n -
mul(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n-1)),j=0..n-1)/mul(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n+1)),j=0..n-1):
simplify(convert(f(200),sin));

But that's about the *only* kind of product/quotient of cosines
for which this 'technique' works. -
This is so because "convert(cos(x),sin);" produces

sin(2 x)
1/2 --------
sin(x)

and all of the resulting sine terms in the products cancel.
You could even have used

eval(convert(f(200),sin));

instead of "simplify(...)" and gotten the same result.

I was quite impressed from your solution BUT...note it doesn't work
for all the upper limits!

We agree that for the possitive values of the upper limit of the
iterator the expression
is actually equal to -1; doesn't we?

So...

You cannot arbitrarily change the expression. The general form is

Product(cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n-1))/cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n+1)), j=0..n-1);

To demonstrate that, you can do the following

fj1 := cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n-1))/cos(Pi*2^j/(2^n+1));
fj2 := eval(convert(fj1, sin));

for m from 0 to 4 do
F[m] := eval(convert(mul(subs(j=k,fj2), k=0..m),sin));
end do;

# From that we can do the following:

m := 'm':
F[m] := subs(2^(4+1)=2^(m+1), F[4]);

# we want m=n-1
F[n-1] := eval(F[m], m=n-1);

subs([2^n=K+1, 2^n+1=J, 2^n-1=K], F[n-1]);
simplify(%);
subs(K = J-2, %);
simplify(%);

-1

Note that it fails for n = 0, 1.
