We compute the limits of a class of periodic continued radicals and we establish a connection between them and the fixed points of the Chebycheff polynomials.
Continued fractions whose elements are polynomial sequences have been carefully studied mostly in the cases where the degree of the numerator polynomial is less than or equal to two and the degree of the denominator polynomial is less than…
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 highlight some facts about continued fractions of real cubic irrationalities. This may be thought as a small section in a textbook on continued fractions.
Under certain conditions the number of photons radiated classically by a charged particle following a prescribed trajectory can be finite. An interesting formula for this number is presented and discussed.
Our main result is that any real cubic algebraic number has a continued fraction expansion with polynomial coefficients. Some generalizations are mentioned.
We determine sets of elements which, under certain conditions, generate an intersection of ideals up to radical.
We give an algorithm to determine all the repeated concatenations, in a given base, of a natural number in a residue class. The author recently describes a particular sequence of $v$-palindromes that inspires this investigation. We also…
We define a class of rational numbers including, as a particular case, the classical harmonic numbers. For one particular instance we apply it to the expansion into powers series of a special function, and also detail its relashionship with…
We provide an alternative proof that the finite rational linear combination of radicals, under certain constraint, are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$.
In an earlier paper we introduced the notion of 'bifurcating continued fractions' in a heuristic manner. In this paper a formal theory is developed for the 'bifurcating continued fractions'.
We discuss continued fractions on real quadratic number fields of class number 1. If the field has the property of being 2-stage euclidean, a generalization of the euclidean algorithm can be used to compute these continued fractions.…
We provide a generalization of continued fractions to the Heisenberg group. We prove an explicit estimate on the rate of convergence of the infinite continued fraction and several surprising analogs of classical formulas about continued…
In this paper we study periodic continued radicals of 2. We show that any periodic continued radicals of 2 converges to 2sin(q\pi), for some rational number q depends on the continued radical. Furthermore we show that if r_n is a periodic…
We establish new combinatorial transcendence criteria for continued fraction expansions. Let $\alpha = [0; a_1, a_2,...]$ be an algebraic number of degree at least three. One of our criteria implies that the sequence of partial quotients…
The work starts a series of papers on topological radicals and their applications. Among other results we present a theory of radicals related to the joint tensor radius.
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…
For every natural number $n$, there exist finitely presented groups with residual finiteness depths $\omega\cdot n$ and $\omega\cdot n + 1$. The ordinals that arise as the residual finiteness depth of a finitely generated group…
The main result of this paper is that if E is a field extension of finite odd degree over a real field Q, and if E is a repeated radical extension of Q, then every intermediate field is also a repeated radical extension of Q. This paper…
We define an equivalence relation on periodic continued fractions with partial quotients in a ring $\mathcal{O} \subseteq \mathbf{C}$, a group law on these equivalence classes, and a map from these equivalence classes to matrices in…
