AbstractWe consider certain sets of non-normal continued fractions for which the asymptotic frequencies of digit strings oscillate in one or other ways. The Hausdorff dimensions of these sets are shown to be the same value 1/2 as long as they are non-empty. An interesting example among them is the set of “extremely non-normal continued fractions” which was previously conjectured to be of Hausdorff dimension 0.

Abstract This paper is concerned with the growth rate of the product of consecutive partial quotients relative to the denominator of the convergent for the continued fraction expansion of an irrational number. More precisely, given a natural number $m,$ we determine the Hausdorff dimension of the following set: $$ \begin{align*} E_m(\tau)=\bigg\{x\in [0,1): \limsup\limits_{n\rightarrow\infty}\frac{\log (a_n(x)a_{n+1}(x)\cdots a_{n+m}(x))}{\log q_n(x)}=\tau\bigg\}, \end{align*} $$ where $\tau $ is a nonnegative number. This extends the dimensional result of Dirichlet nonimprovable sets (when $m=1$ ) shown by Hussain, Kleinbock, Wadleigh and Wang.

For continued fraction dynamical system [Formula: see text], we give a classification of the underlying space [Formula: see text] according to the orbit of a given point [Formula: see text]. The sizes of all classes are determined from the viewpoints of measure, Hausdorff dimension and topology. For instance, the Hausdorff dimension of the distal set of [Formula: see text] is one and the Hausdorff dimension of the asymptotic set is either zero or [Formula: see text] according to [Formula: see text] is rational or not.

Good’s Theorem for regular continued fraction states that the set of real numbers [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] has Hausdorff dimension [Formula: see text]. We show an analogous result for the complex plane and Hurwitz Continued Fractions: the set of complex numbers whose Hurwitz Continued fraction [Formula: see text] satisfies [Formula: see text] has Hausdorff dimension [Formula: see text], half of the ambient space’s dimension.

Given x ∈ (0, 1), let [a1(x), a2(x), a3(x),…] be the continued fraction expansion of x and [Formula: see text] be the sequence of rational convergents. Good [The fractional dimensional theory of continued fractions, Math. Proc. Cambridge Philos. Soc.37 (1941) 199–228] discussed the growth properties of {an(x), n ≥ 1} and proved that for any β > 0, the set [Formula: see text] is of Hausdorff dimension [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we consider, for any β > 0, the set [Formula: see text] and show that the Hausdorff dimension of F(β) is [Formula: see text].

Abstract For any x in $[0,1)$ , let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),a_3(x),\ldots ]$ be its continued fraction. Let $\psi :\mathbb {N}\to \mathbb {R}^+$ be such that $\psi (n) \to \infty $ as $n\to \infty $ . For any positive integers s and t, we study the set $$ \begin{align*}E(\psi)=\{(x,y)\in [0,1)^2: \max\{a_{sn}(x), a_{tn}(y)\}\ge \psi(n) \ {\text{for all sufficiently large}}\ n\in \mathbb{N}\} \end{align*} $$ and determine its Hausdorff dimension.

We consider the efficiency of approximating real numbers by their convergents of Engel continued fractions (ECF). Specifically, we estimate the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points whose ECF-convergents are the best approximations infinitely often. We also obtain the Hausdorff dimensions of the Jarnik-like set and the related sets defined by some growth rates of partial quotients in ECF expansions.

Let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}=[a_{1},a_{2},\ldots ]$ be the infinite expansion of a continued fraction for an irrational number $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}\in (0,1)$, and let $R_{n}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$ (respectively, $R_{n,k}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$, $R_{n,k+}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})$) be the number of distinct partial quotients, each of which appears at least once (respectively, exactly $k$ times, at least $k$ times) in the sequence $a_{1},\ldots ,a_{n}$. In this paper, it is proved that, for Lebesgue almost all $\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}\in (0,1)$ and all $k\geq 1$, $$\begin{eqnarray}\displaystyle \lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\frac{R_{n}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})}{\sqrt{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}}{\log 2}},\quad \lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\frac{R_{n,k}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})}{R_{n}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})}=\frac{C_{2k}^{k}}{(2k-1)\cdot 4^{k}},\quad \lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }\frac{R_{n,k}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})}{R_{n,k+}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D714})}=\frac{1}{2k}.\end{eqnarray}$$ The Hausdorff dimensions of certain level sets about $R_{n}$ are discussed.

AbstractAssume that x∈[0,1) admits its continued fraction expansion x=[a1(x),a2(x),…]. The Khintchine exponent γ(x) of x is defined by $\gamma (x):=\lim _{n\to \infty }({1}/{n}) \sum _{j=1}^n \log a_j(x)$ when the limit exists. The Khintchine spectrum dim Eξ is studied in detail, where Eξ:={x∈[0,1):γ(x)=ξ}(ξ≥0) and dim denotes the Hausdorff dimension. In particular, we prove the remarkable fact that the Khintchine spectrum dim Eξ, as a function of $\xi \in [0, +\infty )$, is neither concave nor convex. This is a new phenomenon from the usual point of view of multifractal analysis. Fast Khintchine exponents defined by $\gamma ^{\varphi }(x):=\lim _{n\to \infty }({1}/({\varphi (n)}))\sum _{j=1}^n \log a_j(x)$ are also studied, where φ(n) tends to infinity faster than n does. Under some regular conditions on φ, it is proved that the fast Khintchine spectrum dim ({x∈[0,1]:γφ(x)=ξ}) is a constant function. Our method also works for other spectra such as the Lyapunov spectrum and the fast Lyapunov spectrum.

For an irrational number $x\in [0,1)$, let $x=[a_{1}(x),a_{2}(x),\ldots ]$ be its continued fraction expansion with partial quotients $\{a_{n}(x):n\geq 1\}$. Given $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9}\in \mathbb{N}$, for $n\geq 1$, the $n$th longest block function of $x$ with respect to $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9}$ is defined by $L_{n}(x,\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9})=\max \{k\geq 1:a_{j+1}(x)=\cdots =a_{j+k}(x)=\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9}~\text{for some}~j~\text{with}~0\leq j\leq n-k\}$, which represents the length of the longest consecutive sequence whose elements are all $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9}$ from the first $n$ partial quotients of $x$. We consider the growth rate of $L_{n}(x,\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E9})$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$ and calculate the Hausdorff dimensions of the level sets and exceptional sets arising from the longest block function.
