AbstractWe give general results which provide asymptotic irrationality measures and estimations for the denominators of the convergents for certain almost periodic simple continued fraction expansions. As an application we obtain new irrationality measures, for example, to Napier's constant

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.

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.

We exhibit some explicit continued fraction expansions and their representation series in different fields. Some of these continued fractions have a type of symmetry, known as folding symmetry. We will extracted those whose are specialized.

We derive closed form expressions for the continued fractions of powers of certain quadratic surds. Specifically, consider the recurrence relation with , , a positive integer, and (note that gives the Fibonacci numbers). Let . We find simple closed form continued fraction expansions for for any integer by exploiting elementary properties of the recurrence relation and continued fractions.

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.

The infinite continued fractionin whichis periodic with period l and is equal to a quadratic surd if and only if the partial quotients, ak, are integers or rational numbers [1]. We shall also assume that they are positive. The transformation discussed below applies only to pure periodic fractions where n is zero.

In this paper we find an expression for ex as the limit of quotients associated with a sequence of matrices, and thence, by using the matrix approach to continued fractions ([5] 12–13, [2] and [4]), we derive the regular continued fraction expansions of e2/k and tan 1/k (where k is a positive integer).

An infinite simple continued fraction representation of a real number α is in the form $$\eqalign{& {a_0} + {1 \over {{a_1} + {1 \over {{a_2} + {1 \over {{a_3} + {1 \over {}}}}}}}} \cr & \;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\; \ddots \cr} $$ where $${a_0}$$ is an integer, and $${a_i}$$ are positive integers for $$i \ge 1$$. This is often written more compactly in one of the following ways: $${a_0} + {1 \over {{a_1} + }}{1 \over {{a_2} + }}{1 \over {{a_3} + }} \ldots \;{\rm{or}}\;\left[ {{a_0};\;{a_1},\;{a_2},\;{a_3} \ldots } \right]$$ .
