In the combinatorial theory of continued fractions, the Foata--Zeilberger bijection and its variants have been extensively used to derive various continued fractions enumerating several (sometimes infinitely many) simultaneous statistics on…

We derive closed-form expressions for several new classes of Hurwitzian- and Tasoevian continued fractions, including $[0;\overline{p-1,1,u(a+2nb)-1,p-1,1,v(a+(2n+1)b)-1 }\,\,]_{n=0}^\infty$, $[0; \overline{c + d m^{n}}]_{n=1}^{\infty}$ and…

Let $x \in [0,1)$ be a real number and denote its continued fraction expansion by $[a_1(x),a_2(x), a_3(x),\cdots]$. The convergence exponent of these partial quotients is defined as \[ \tau(x):= \inf\left\{s \geq 0: \sum_{n \geq 1}…

Let $\beta > 1$ be a real number and $x \in [0,1)$ be an irrational number. Denote by $k_n(x)$ the exact number of partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of $x$ given by the first $n$ digits in the $\beta$-expansion of $x$…

The theory of continued fractions has been generalized to l-adic numbers by several authors and presents many differences with respect to the real case. In the present paper we investigate the expansion of rationals and quadratic…

Consider the representation of a rational number as a continued fraction, associated with "odd" Euclidean algorithm. In this paper we prove certain properties for the limit distribution function for sequences of rationals with bounded sum…

Let $A^{(n)}_{l;k}\subset S_n$ denote the set of permutations of $[n]$ for which the set of $l$ consecutive numbers $\{k, k+1,\cdots, k+l-1\}$ appears in a set of consecutive positions. Under the uniformly probability measure $P_n$ on…

We continue the study of random continued fraction expansions, generated by random application of the Gauss and the R\'enyi backward continued fraction maps. We show that this random dynamical system admits a unique absolutely continuous…

Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be the digits in the base-$q$ expansion of a random variable $X$ defined on $[0,1)$ where $q\ge2$ is an integer. For $n=1,2,...$, we study the probability distribution $P_n$ of the (scaled) remainder…

In this paper we define a new type of continued fraction expansion for a real number $x \in I_m:=[0,m-1], m\in N_+, m\geq 2$: \[x = \frac{m^{-b_1(x)}}{\displaystyle 1+\frac{m^{-b_2(x)}}{1+\ddots}}:=[b_1(x), b_2(x), ...]_m. \] Then, we…

If the odd and even parts of a continued fraction converge to different values, the continued fraction may or may not converge in the general sense. We prove a theorem which settles the question of general convergence for a wide class of…

Continued fraction expansions provide a well-established bridge between algebraic properties of numbers and combinatorics on words. In this article, we investigate the algebraicity of $p$-adic numbers whose continued fractions arise from…

A well known theorem of Lagrange states that the simple continued fraction of a real number $\alpha$ is periodic if and only if $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational. We examine non-periodic and non-simple continued fractions formed by two…

Legendre discovered that the continued fraction expansion of $\sqrt N$ having odd period leads directly to an explicit representation of $N$ as the sum of two squares. In this vein, it was recently observed that the continued fraction…

For a real $x\in(0,1)\setminus\mathbb{Q}$, let $x=[a_1(x),a_2(x),\cdots]$ be its continued fraction expansion. Denote by $T_n(x):= max \{a_k(x): 1\leq k\leq n\}$ the leading partial quotient up to $n$. For any real $\alpha\in(0,\infty),…

It is shown that for sums of functionals of digits in continued fraction expansion the Kolmogorov-Feller weak laws of large numbers and the Khinchine-L\'evy-Feller-Raikov characterization of the domain of attraction of the normal law hold.
