We give continued fraction algorithms for a particular class of Fuchsian triangle groups. In particular, we give an explicit form of each such group that is a subgroup of the Hilbert modular group of its trace field and provide an interval…
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 explicitly describe a noteworthy transcendental continued fraction in the field of power series over Q, having irrationality measure equal to 3. This continued fraction is a generating function of a particular sequence in the set {1, 2}.…
In the present paper and as an application of Roth's theorem concerning the rational approximation of algebraic numbers, we give a sufficient condition that will assure us that a series of positive rational terms is a transcendental number.…
We have calculated on the computer the sum $\bar{\BB}_M$ of reciprocals of all 47 known Mersenne primes with the accuracy of over 12000000 decimal digits. Next we developed $\bar{\BB}_M$ into the continued fraction and calculated…
For $\alpha_0 = \left[a_0, a_1, \ldots\right]$ an infinite continued fraction and $\sigma$ a linear fractional transformation, we study the continued fraction expansion of $\sigma(\alpha_0)$ and its convergents. We provide the continued…
We study the topological, dynamical, and descriptive set theoretic properties of Hurwitz continued fractions. Hurwitz continued fractions associate an infinite sequence of Gaussian integers to every complex number which is not a Gaussian…
Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…
An Engel series is a sum of reciprocals of a non-decreasing sequence $(x_n)$ of positive integers, which is such that each term is divisible by the previous one, and a Pierce series is an alternating sum of the reciprocals of a sequence…
We investigate some properties of the higher continued fractions defined recently by Musiker, Ovenhouse, Schiffler, and Zhang. We prove that the maps defining the higher continued fractions are increasing continuous functions on the…
It is a well-known result that, after adding one Cohen real, the transcendence degree of the reals over the ground-model reals is continuum. We extend this result for a set $X$ of finitely many Cohen reals, by showing that, in the forcing…
In this work, we present continued fractions for the arithmetic, geometric, harmonic and cotangent means of $[a_0,a_1,\dots,a_k]$ and $[a_0,a_1,\dots,a_k,a_{k+1}]$, and some of their applications.
Using Schmidt's Subspace Theorem, this paper improves and extends an existing transcendence result for sequences of algebraic numbers. The theorems thus produced correspond to a central theorem on the irrationality of sequences due to…
In this paper we define "a continued fraction expansion of the exponential integral $E_{1}(x)$ at infinity", which is analogous to the regular continued fraction expansion of real numbers, and prove that this expansion gives the same…
We introduce the continued logarithm representation of real numbers and prove results on the occurrence and frequency of digits with respect to this representation
Proper continued fractions are generalized continued fractions with positive integer numerators $a_i$ and integer denominators with $b_i\geq a_i$. In this paper we study the strength of approximation of irrational numbers to their…
We describe various properties of continued fraction expansions of complex numbers in terms of Gaussian integers. Numerous distinct such expansions are possible for a complex number. They can be arrived at through various algorithms, as…
We prove an explicit formula for infinitely many convergents of Hurwitzian continued fractions that repeat several copies of the same constant and elements of one arithmetic progression, in a quasi-periodic fashion. The proof involves…
The aim of this paper is to study the convergence and divergence of the Rogers-Ramanujan and the generalized Rogers-Ramanujan continued fractions on the unit circle. We provide an example of an uncountable set of measure zero on which the…
In this small paper we bring together various open problems on geometric multidimensional continued fractions.
