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.

Given an$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}>1$and a$\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$with unbounded continued fraction entries, we characterize new relations between Sturmian subshifts with slope$\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$with respect to (i) an$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$-Hölder regularity condition of a spectral metric, (ii) level sets defined in terms of the Diophantine properties of$\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}$, and (iii) complexity notions which we call$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$-repetitiveness,$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$-repulsiveness and$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$-finiteness—generalizations of the properties known as linear repetitiveness, repulsiveness and power freeness, respectively. We show that the level sets relate naturally to (exact) Jarník sets and prove that their Hausdorff dimension is$2/(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}+1)$.

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.

Statistical Regularity

In 1812 Gauss, in a letter to Laplace, proposed without proof a formula explaining the statistical regularity of continued fractions. There has since been speculation concerning the manner in which Gauss arrived at this formula. In this article we present a plausible explanation, which at the same time gives an elementary proof of the full ergodic nature of the underlying dynamical system. The method seems to be of interest for other number-theoretic expansions.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The Hurwitz complex continued fraction is a generalization of the nearest integer continued fraction. In this paper, we prove various results concerning extremes of the modulus of Hurwitz complex continued fraction digits. This includes a Poisson law and an extreme value law. The results are based on cusp estimates of the invariant measure about which information is still limited. In the process, we obtained several results concerning the extremes of nearest integer continued fractions as well.
