Meander permutations have been encountered in the context of Gauss words, singularity theory, Sturm global attractors, plane Cartesian billiards, and Temperley–Lieb algebras, among others. In this spirit, we attempt to investigate the difference of orderings of homoclinic orbits on the stable and unstable manifolds of a planar saddle. As an example, we consider reversible linear Anosov maps on the 2-torus, and their relation to continued fraction expansions.

Absolutely Continuous Invariant

We investigate the efficiency of several types of continued fraction expansions of a number in the unit interval using a generalization of Lochs theorem from 1964. Thus, we aim to compare the efficiency by describing the rate at which the digits of one number-theoretic expansion determine those of another. We study Chan’s continued fractions, θ-expansions, N-continued fractions, and Rényi-type continued fractions. A central role in fulfilling our goal is played by the entropy of the absolutely continuous invariant probability measures of the associated dynamical systems.

AbstractWe prove the existence of the limiting distribution for the sequence of denominators generated by continued fraction expansions with even partial quotients, which were introduced by Schweiger [Continued fractions with odd and even partial quotients. Arbeitsberichte Math. Institut Universtät Salzburg4 (1982), 59–70; On the approximation by continues fractions with odd and even partial quotients. Arbeitsberichte Math. Institut Universtät Salzburg1–2 (1984), 105–114] and studied also by Kraaikamp and Lopes [The theta group and the continued fraction expansion with even partial quotients. Geom. Dedicata59(3) (1996), 293–333]. Our main result is proven following the strategy used by Sinai and Ulcigrai [Renewal-type limit theorem for the Gauss map and continued fractions. Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.28 (2008), 643–655] in their proof of a similar renewal-type theorem for Euclidean continued fraction expansions and the Gauss map. The main steps in our proof are the construction of a natural extension of a Gauss-like map and the proof of mixing of a related special flow.

1. If the approximate numerical value of e is expressed as a continued fraction the result isand it was in finding the proof that the sequence extends correctly to infinity that the following work was done. First the continued fraction may be simplified by setting down the difference equations for numerator and denominator as usual, and eliminating two out of every successive three equations. A difference equation is thus formed between the first, fourth, seventh, tenth … convergents , and this equation will generate another continued fraction. After a little rearrangement of the first two members it appears that (1) implies2. We therefore consider the continued fractionwhich includes (2), and also certain continued fractions which were discussed by Prof. Turnbull. He evaluated them without solving the difference equations, and it is the purpose here to show how the difference equations may be solved completely both in his cases and in the different problem of (2). It will appear that the work is connected with certain types of hypergeometric function, but I shall not go into this deeply.

Manifold Theory

An analogue of the center manifold theory is proposed for non-local bifurcations of homo- and heteroclinic contours. In contrast with the local bifurcation theory it is shown that the dimension of non-local bifurcational problems is determined by the three different integers: the geometrical dimension dg which is equal to the dimension of a non-local analogue of the center manifold, the critical dimension dc which is equal to the difference between the dimension of phase space and the sum of dimensions of leaves of associated strong-stable and strong-unstable foliations, and the Lyapunov dimension dL which is equal to the maximal possible number of zero Lyapunov exponents for the orbits arising at the bifurcation. For a wide class of bifurcational problems (the so-called semi-local bifurcations) these three values are shown to be effectively computed. For the orbits arising at the bifurcations, effective restrictions for the maximal and minimal numbers of positive and negative Lyapunov exponents (correspondingly, for the maximal and minimal possible dimensions of the stable and unstable manifolds) are obtained, involving the values dc and dL. A connection with the problem of hyperchaos is discussed.

Branched Continued Fraction

The paper deals with the problem of convergence of the branched continued fractions with two branches of branching which are used to approximate the ratios of Horn's hypergeometric function $H_3(a,b;c;{\bf z})$. The case of real parameters $c\geq a\geq 0,$ $c\geq b\geq 0,$ $c\neq 0,$ and complex variable ${\bf z}=(z_1,z_2)$ is considered. First, it is proved the convergence of the branched continued fraction for ${\bf z}\in G_{\bf h}$, where $G_{\bf h}$ is two-dimensional disk. Using this result, sufficient conditions for the uniform convergence of the above mentioned branched continued fraction on every compact subset of the domain $\displaystyle H=\bigcup_{\varphi\in(-\pi/2,\pi/2)}G_\varphi,$ where \[\begin{split} G_{\varphi}=\big\{{\bf z}\in\mathbb{C}^{2}:&\;{\rm Re}(z_1e^{-i\varphi})<\lambda_1 \cos\varphi,\; |{\rm Re}(z_2e^{-i\varphi})|<\lambda_2 \cos\varphi, \\ &\;|z_k|+{\rm Re}(z_ke^{-2i\varphi})<\nu_k\cos^2\varphi,\;k=1,2;\; \\ &\; |z_1z_2|-{\rm Re}(z_1z_2e^{-2\varphi})<\nu_3\cos^{2}\varphi\big\}, \end{split}\] are established.

Fraction Algorithm

Continued fractions are deeply related to Singularity Theory, as the computation of the Puiseux exponents of a plane curve from its dual graph clearly shows. Another closely related topic is Euclid's Algorithm for computing the gcd of two integers (see [2] for a detailed overview). In the first section, we describe a subtractive algorithm for computing the gcd of n integers, related to singularities of curves in affine n-space. This gives rise to a multidimensional continued fraction algorithm whose version in dimension 2 is the main topic of the paper.
