We give simple proofs for the Hankel determinants of q-exponential polynomials.

The goal of this paper is to formulate a systematical method for constructing the fastest possible continued fraction approximations of a class of functions. The main tools are the multiple-correction method, the generalized Mortici's lemma…

We consider the conjecture of Brutman and Pasow on a totality divided differences and prove the conjecture for continuous functions.

Fix $n$ a positive integer. Take the $n$-th metallic number $\phi_n=\frac{n+\sqrt{n^2+4}}{2}$ (e.g. $\phi_1$ is the golden number) and let $\Phi_n(q)$ be its $q$-deformation in the sense of S. Morier-Genoud and V. Ovsienko. This is an…

The present paper deals with Gauss' problem on continued fractions. We present a new proof of a theorem which Sz\"usz applied in order to solve this problem. To be noted, that we obtain the value $0.7594...$ for $q$, which has been…

In this paper we present another proof of the analytic version of the Hahn-Banach theorem in terms of convex functionals.

We show that the series expansions of certain $q$-products have \textit{matching coefficients} with their reciprocals. Several of the results are associated to Ramanujan's continued fractions. For example, let $R(q)$ denote the…

A $Z$-set in a metric space $X$ is a closed subset $K$ of $X$ such that each map of the Hilbert cube $Q$ into $X$ can uniformly be approximated by maps of $Q$ into $X \setminus K$. The aim of the paper is to show that there exists a functor…

An asymptotic expansion of a ratio of products of gamma functions is derived. It generalizes a formula which was stated by Dingle, first proved by Paris, and recently reconsidered by Olver.

Corrections are brought to an article of Friesen on continued fractions of a given period.

In this article we prove that if the $q-$fractional operator $(~_{q}\nabla_{qa}^\alpha y)(t)$ of order $0<\alpha\leq 1$ , $0<q<1$ and starting at some $qa \in T_q=\{q^k: k \in \mathbb{Z}\}\cup \{0\},~~a>0$ is positive such that $y(a) \geq…

We show that two notions of continued fraction normality, one where overlapping occurrences of finite patterns are counted as distinct occurrences, and another where only disjoint occurrences are counted as distinct, are identical. This…

We study a natural extension to complex numbers of the standard continued fractions. The basic algorithm is due to Lagrange and Gauss, though it seems to have gone mostly unnoticed as a way to create continued fractions. The new…

In this paper, we will first summarize known results concerning continued fractions. Then we will limit our consideration to continued fractions of quadratic numbers. The second author described periods and sometimes precise form of…

We investigate a collection of orthonormal functions that encodes information about the continued fraction expansion of real numbers. When suitably ordered these functions form a complete system of martingale differences and are a special…

The nearest integer continued fraction of a real number $x$ from $[-1/2, 1/2)$ is defined. Some metrical properties of these expansions are presented. We define the approximation coefficients and give an important result on them. The main…

Elementary transformations of equations $A\psi=\lambda\psi$ are considered. The invertibility condition (Theorem 1) is established and similar transformations of Riccati equations in the case of second order differential operator $A$ are…

In a recent paper (Asci \textit{et al.}, 2008) it has been shown that certain random continued fractions have a density which is a product of a beta density and a hypergeometric function $_{2}F_{1}$. In the present paper we fully exploit a…

We investigate from a multifractal analysis point of view the increasing rate of the sums of partial quotients $S\_n(x)=\sum\_{j=1}^n a\_j(x)$, where $x=[a\_1(x), a\_2(x), \cdots ]$ is the continued fraction expansion of an irrational $x\in…
