We introduce a random dynamical system related to continued fraction expansions. It uses random combination of the Gauss map and the R\'enyi (or backwards) continued fraction map. We explore the continued fraction expansions that this…
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…
Zeckendorf's Theorem states that any positive integer can be uniquely decomposed into a sum of distinct, non-adjacent Fibonacci numbers. There are many generalizations, including results on existence of decompositions using only even…
We prove the existence of the limiting distribution for the sequence of denominators generated by continued fraction expansions with even partial quotients, which were introduced by F. Schweiger and studied also by C. Kraaikamp and A.…
The metric Mahler measure was first studied by Dubickas and Smyth in 2001 as a means of phrasing Lehmer's conjecture in topological language. More recent work of the author examined a parametrized family of generalized metric Mahler…
We construct an absolutely normal number whose continued fraction expansion is normal in the sense that it contains all finite patterns of partial quotients with the expected asymptotic frequency as given by the Gauss-Kuzmin measure. The…
This article presents simple and easy proofs of the Implicit Function Theorem and the Inverse Function Theorem, in this order, both of them on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space, that employ only the Intermediate Value Theorem and the…
The direct calculation of the Generalized operator entropy proves difficult by the appearance of rational exponents of matrices. The main motivation of this work is to overcome these difficulties and to present a practical and efficient…
The notion of 'bifurcating continued fractions' is introduced. Two coupled sequences of non-negative integers are obtained from an ordered pair of positive real numbers in a manner that generalizes the notion of continued fractions. These…
In this paper we present a family of continued fraction expansions for $e^n$, with $n\ge 1$, with a simple expression having partial denominators given by arithmetic progressions. We give an estimate for the convergence speed showing that…
A simple version for the extension of the Taylor theorem to the operator functions was found. The expansion was done with respect to a value given by a diagonal matrix for the non-commutative case, and the coefficients are given both by…
We establish the strong unique continuation property of fractional orders of linear elliptic equations with Lipschitz coefficients by establishing monotonicity of some Almgren-type frequency functional via an extension procedure.
We derive continued fractions for partition generating functions, utilizing both Euler's techniques and Ramanujan's techniques. Although our results are for integer partitions there is scope to extend this work to vector partitions,…
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…
In a seminal paper, Choquet introduced an integral formula to extend a monotone increasing setfunction on a sigma-algebra to a (nonlinear) functional on bounded measurable functions. The most important special case is when the setfunction…
We give a short proof -- not relying on ideal classes or the geometry of numbers -- of a known criterion for quadratic orders to possess unique factorization.
Continued fractions are used to give an alternate proof of $e^{x/y}$ is irrational.
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…
In this short note, we give a proof, conditional on the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, that there exist numbers x which are normal with respect to the continued fraction expansion but not to any base b expansion. This partially answers a…
In this paper we give simple extension and uniqueness theorems for restricted additive and logarithmic functional equations.
