By using quantum mechanical ideas of matrix elements, coupled to a harmonic oscillator in \(N\) dimensions, new expansions for \(\pi\) and 1/\(\pi\) are derived. The paper generalizes the approach in three dimensions given earlier by the second author [J. Approx. Theory 60, No. 1, 1--10 (1990; Zbl 0707.40003)].
