Quantitative distortion and the Hausdorff dimension of continued fractions

Number Theory 2020-02-25 v1 Dynamical Systems

Abstract

We prove a quantitative distortion theorem for iterated function systems that generate sets of continued fractions. As a consequence, we obtain upper and lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of any set of real or complex continued fractions. These bounds are solutions to Moran-type equations in the convergents that can be easily implemented in a computer algebra system.
