We prove a conjecture of Calta, Kraaikamp and the author: For all $n\ge 3$, each member of their one-parameter family of interval maps, denoted $T_{3,n,\alpha}$, has its `first expansive return map' of natural extension given by the first…

We establish various results on the structure of approximate subgroups in linear groups such as SL_n(k) that were previously announced by the authors. For example, generalising a result of Helfgott (who handled the cases n = 2 and 3), we…

Gauss' classical reduction theory for indefinite binary quadratic forms over $\mathbb{Z}$ has originally been proven by means of purely algebraic and arithmetic considerations. It was later discovered that this reduction theory is closely…

For each $d \in {1,2,3,7,11}$, let $T_d$ be the nearest-integer complex continued fraction map associated with the Euclidean ring $\mathcal{O}*d$, and let $(a_n)$ be its digit sequence. We prove two metric results for this five-system…

We develop the geometry of Hurwitz continued fractions, a major tool in understanding the approximation properties of complex numbers by ratios of Gaussian integers. Based on a thorough study of the geometric properties of Hurwitz continued…

This note provides an effective bound in the Gauss-Kuzmin-L\'evy problem for some Gauss type shifts associated with nearest integer continued fractions, acting on the interval $I_0=[0,\frac{1}{2}]$ or $I_0=[-\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2}]$. We…

In this paper we study the geodesic continued fraction in the case of the Shimura curve coming from the $(2,3,7)$-triangle group. We construct a certain continued fraction expansion of real numbers using the so-called coding of the…

Recently, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer developed a new theory called Parametric Geometry of Numbers which approximates the behaviour of the successive minima of a family of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ related to the problem of…

Unlike the real case, there are not many studies and general techniques for providing simultaneous approximations in the field of $p$--adic numbers $\mathbb Q_p$. Here, we study the use of multidimensional continued fractions (MCFs) in this…

Hurwitz (1887) defined a continued fraction algorithm for complex numbers which is better behaved in many respects than a more "natural" extension of the classical continued fraction algorithm to the complex plane would be. Although the…

We study continued logarithms as introduced by Bill Gosper and studied by J. Borwein et. al.. After providing an overview of the type I and type II generalizations of binary continued logarithms introduced by Borwein et. al., we focus on a…

Consider the affine Hecke algebra $H_l$ corresponding to the group $GL_l$ over a $p$-adic field with the residue field of cardinality $q$. Regard $H_l$ as an associative algebra over the field $C(q)$. Consider the $H_{l+m}$-module $W$…

Let G be a reductive algebraic group over Q, and suppose that Gamma is an arithmetic subgroup of G(R) defined by congruence conditions. A basic problem in arithmetic is to determine the multiplicities of discrete series representations in…

Let $\frak E$ denote be the ring of Eisenstein integers. Let $z\in \mathbb C$ and $p_n,q_n \in \frak E$ be such that $\{p_n/q_n\}$ is the sequence of convergents corresponding to the continued fraction expansion of $z$ with respect to the…

We introduce a $q$-analog of the higher continued fractions introduced by the last three authors in a previous work (together with Gregg Musiker), which are simultaneously a generalization of the $q$-rational numbers of Morier-Genoud and…

We show that the statistics of the continued fraction expansion of a randomly chosen rational in the unit interval, with a fixed large denominator $q$, approaches the Gauss-Kuzmin statistics with polynomial rate in $q$. This improves on…

Utilizing the theory of the Poisson transform, we develop some new concrete models for the Hecke theory in a space $M_{\lambda}(N)$ of Maass forms with eigenvalue $1/4-\lambda^2$ on a congruence subgroup $\Gamma_1(N)$. We introduce the…

Explicit solutions for the three-term recurrence satisfied by associated continuous dual $q$-Hahn polynomials are obtained. A minimal solution is identified and an explicit expression for the related continued fraction is derived. The…

This paper concerns extension of the classical Lagrange theorem, on the eventual periodicity of continued fraction expansions of quadratic surds, and the versions of it found in the literature in the case of complex numbers. In this…

We continue the work of Takao Komatsu by considering the inhomogeneous approximation constant L(\theta,\phi) for Hurwitzian numbers \theta, and rationally related \phi(r \theta +m)/n in Q(\theta) +Q. The current work uses a compactness…
