Adler, Keane, and Smorodinsky showed that if one concatenates the finite continued fraction expansions of the sequence of rationals \[ \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{2}{4}, \frac{3}{4}, \frac{1}{5}, \cdots \] into…

We consider integer sequences that satisfy a recursion of the form $x_{n+1} = P(x_n)$ for some polynomial $P$ of degree $d > 1$. If such a sequence tends to infinity, then it satisfies an asymptotic formula of the form $x_n \sim A…

We show that there are infinitely many square numbers , which are constrocted by putting two square numbers together , that non of them are divisible by $10$ . We also investigate the interesting properties of some square numbers.

Special kinds of continued fractions have been proved to converge to transcendental real numbers by means of the celebrated Subspace Theorem. In this paper we study the analogous $p$--adic problem. More specifically, we deal with Browkin…

Let $a$ be a positive integer, and let $\sigma(a)$ denote the least natural number $s$ such that an integer square lies between $s^2 a$ and $s^2 (a+1)$; let $\tau_s(a)$ denote the number of such integer squares. The function $\sigma(a)$ and…

This paper is an attempt to apply the tools of supergeometry to arithmetic. Supergeometric objects are defined over supercommutative rings of coefficients, and we consider an integral ring with exactly two odd variables. In this case the…

Inspired by Lehmer's and Deaconescu's conjectures, as well as various analogue problems concerning Euler's totient function $\varphi(n)$, Schemmel's totient function $S_{2}(n)$, Jordan totient function $J_k$, and the unitary totient…

We introduce two families of transcendental numbers which we call finite factorial (FF) and partially finite factorial (PFF) numbers respectively, with the former one being subfamily of the latter one. These numbers arise naturally from…

Given a positive rational number $n/d$ with $d$ odd, its odd greedy expansion starts with the largest odd denominator unit fraction at most $n/d$, adds the largest odd denominator unit fraction so the sum is at most $n/d$, and continues as…

Consider the representation of a rational number as a continued fraction, associated with "odd" Euclidean algorithm. In this paper we prove certain properties for the limit distribution function for sequences of rationals with bounded sum…

It is known that the continued fraction expansion of a real number is periodic if and only if the number is a quadratic irrational. In an attempt to generalize this phenomenon to other settings, Jun-Ichi Tamura and Shin-Ichi Yasutomi have…

There are numerous ways to represent real numbers. We may use, e.g., Cauchy sequences, Dedekind cuts, numerical base-10 expansions, numerical base-2 expansions and continued fractions. If we work with full Turing computability, all these…

We consider a family of continued fraction expansions of any number in the unit closed interval $[0,1]$ whose digits are differences of consecutive non-positive integer powers of an integer $m \geq 2$. For this expansion, we apply the…

We prove that the statistics of the period of the continued fraction expansion of certain sequences of quadratic irrationals from a fixed quadratic field approach the `normal' statistics given by the Gauss-Kuzmin measure. As a by-product,…

Let $F_1=1,F_2=1,\ldots$ be the Fibonacci sequence. Motivated by the identity $\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{F_{2^k}}=\frac{7-\sqrt{5}}{2}$, Erd\"os and Graham asked whether $\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{F_{n_k}}$ is…

We present several results on the number of irrational and linear independent values among $\zeta(s),\zeta(s+2),...,\zeta(s+2n)$, where $s>2$ is an odd integer and $n>0$ is an integer. The main tool in our proofs is a certain generalization…

In \cite{d4}, we gave a method to construct a continued fraction of the function $F(x):=e^{x}E_{1}(x)$. More precisely we define $F_{1}(x)$ as the reciprocal of $F(x)$ and we inductively define $F_{m}(x)$ as the reciprocal of ``$F_{m-1}(x)$…
