In this paper, we apply results on number systems based on continued fraction expansions to modular arithmetic. We provide two new algorithms in order to compute modular multiplication and modular division. The presented algorithms are…
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…
A partition of the positive integers into sets $A$ and $B$ {\em avoids} a set $S\subset\N$ if no two distinct elements in the same part have a sum in $S$. If the partition is unique, $S$ is {\em uniquely avoidable.} For any irrational…
We consider expansions of vectors by a general class of multidimensional continued fraction algorithms. If the expansion is eventually periodic, then we describe the possible structure of a matrix corresponding to the repetend, and use it…
In this paper Euler shows how, if we have recursive functions f,g,h and an infinite sequence A,B,C,... which satisfies fA=gB+hC, f'B=g'C+h'D, f''C=g''D+h''E, f'''D=g'''E+h'''F, etc., where the primes denote an index not a derivative, then…
Continued fractions have a long history in number theory, especially in the area of Diophantine approximation. The aim of this expository paper is to survey the main results on the theory of $p$--adic continued fractions, i.e. continued…
Let $f(x)$ be a square free quartic polynomial defined over a quadratic field $K$ such that its leading coefficient is a square. If the continued fraction expansion of $\displaystyle \sqrt{f(x)}$ is periodic, then its period $n$ lies in the…
In this paper, we introduce the polynomial continued fraction, a close relative of the well-known simple continued fraction expansions which are widely used in number theory and in general. While they may not possess all the intriguing…
We study differential splitting fields of quaternion algebras with derivations. A quaternion algebra over a field $k$ is always split by a quadratic extension of $k$. However, a differential quaternion algebra need not be split over any…
In 1986, some examples of algebraic, and nonquadratic, power series over a finite prime field, having a continued fraction expansion with partial quotients all of degree one, were discovered by W. Mills and D. Robbins. In this note we show…
Large and moderate deviation principles are proved for Engel continued fractions, a new type of continued fraction expansion with non-decreasing partial quotients in number theory.
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…
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.
In this paper, we establish sufficient conditions on the elements of the p-adic continued fractions $A$ and $B$ which guarantee that the p-adic continued fractions $A, B $ and $A^{B}$ are algebraically independent over $\mathbb{Q}$. These…
We build, for real quadratic fields, infinitely many periodic continuous fractions uniformly bounded, with a seemingly better bound than the known ones. We do that using continuous fraction expansions with the same shape as those of real…
By replacing the letters to polynomials in F_2[t], an infinite word, over a finite alphabet, can be seen as the sequence of partial quotients of a continued fraction in F_2((1/t)). Here is described a family of such infinite words,…
In this paper, we clarified the relationship between continued fractions, determinants, and identities, making it easier to apply these methods systematically in other settings. In particular, we studied finite continued fractions from the…
We study real numbers defined by multidimensional automatic arrays weighted by multiplicatively independent bases. Let $a_1, \dots, a_r\geq 2$ be integers such that $\log a_1, \dots, \log a_r$ are $\mathbb Q$-linearly independent. Given…
Several continued fraction expansions for $e$ have been produced by an automated conjecture generator (ACG) called \emph{The Ramanujan Machine}. Some of these were already known, some have recently been proved and some remain unproven.…
Continued fractions have been introduced in the field of $p$--adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_p$ by several authors. However, a standard definition is still missing since all the proposed algorithms are not able to replicate all the properties of…
