The Absolute

The purpose of this paper is to give conditions under which the absolute convergence of the subsequence of odd or of even approximants to a continued fraction implies convergence of the continued fraction. In § 2 we consider the problem in general, and in § 3 we impose a condition which gives absolute convergence of the odd or of the even part of the continued fraction and state conditions which imply convergence of the continued fraction.

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.

Complex Continued Fractions

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.

Astronomical Refraction

A continued fraction was derived for the summation of the asymptotic expansion of astronomical refraction. Using simple approximations for the last denominator of the fraction, accurate formulae, useful down to the horizon, were obtained. The method is not restricted to any model of the atmosphere and can thus be used in calculations based on actual aerological measurements.

For the $q$-tangent function introduced by Foata and Han (this volume) we provide the continued fraction expansion, by creative guessing and a routine verification. Then an even more recent $q$-tangent function due to Cieslinski is also expanded. Lastly, a general version is considered that contains both versions as special cases.

The subject of this paper is the current state of art in theory of continued fractions, intermediate fractions and their relation to the best rational approximations of the first and second kind. The paper provides an overview of the some well known and even some new properties of continued fractions, and the various terms associated with them. In addition to intermediate fractions, paper considers the fine intermediate fractions and gave some statements to position these fractions in the continued fraction representation of numbers.

Branched Continued Fraction

In this paper, we investigate the convergence of multidimensional regular С-fractions with independent variables, which are a multidimensional generalization of regular С-fractions. These branched continued fractions are an efficient tool for the approximation of multivariable functions, which are represented by formal multiple power series. We have shown that the intersection of the interior of the parabola and the open disk is the domain of convergence of a multidimensional regular С-fraction with independent variables. And, in addition, we have shown that the interior of the parabola is the domain of convergence of a branched continued fraction, which is reciprocal to the multidimensional regular С-fraction with independent variables.

In this paper, we consider the problem of convergence of an important type of multidimensional generalization of continued fractions, the branched continued fractions with independent variables. These fractions are an efficient apparatus for the approximation of multivariable functions, which are represented by multiple power series. We have established the effective criterion of absolute convergence of branched continued fractions of the special form in the case when the partial numerators are complex numbers and partial denominators are equal to one. This result is a multidimensional analog of the Worpitzky's criterion for continued fractions. We have investigated the polycircular domain of uniform convergence for multidimensional C-fractions with independent variables in the case of nonnegative coefficients of this fraction.
