We present a detailed Hausdorff dimension analysis of the set of real numbers where the product of consecutive partial quotients in their continued fraction expansion grow at a certain rate but the growth of the single partial quotient is…

Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),a_3(x),\cdots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of $x\in (0,1)$. This paper is concerned with certain sets of continued fractions with non-decreasing partial quotients. As a main result, we obtain the Hausdorff…

We statistically compare the relationships between frequencies of digits in continued fraction expansions of typical rational points in the unit interval and higher dimensional generalisations. This takes the form of a Large Deviation and…

We consider sets of real numbers in $[0,1)$ with prescribed frequencies of partial quotients in their regular continued fraction expansions. It is shown that the Hausdorff dimensions of these sets, always bounded from below by $1/2$, are…

By a classical result of Gauss and Kuzmin, the frequency with which a string $\mathbf{a}=(a_1,\dots,a_n)$ of positive integers appears in the continued fraction expansion of a random real number is given by $\mu_{GK}({I(\mathbf{a})})$,…

We provide finite-sample analysis of a general framework for using k-nearest neighbor statistics to estimate functionals of a nonparametric continuous probability density, including entropies and divergences. Rather than plugging a…

We study the family of quadratic maps f_a(x) = 1 - ax^2 on the interval [-1,1] with a between 0 and 2. When small holes are introduced into the system, we prove the existence of an absolutely continuous conditionally invariant measure using…

This note provides an effective bound in the Gauss-Kuzmin-L\'evy problem for some Gauss type shifts associated with nearest integer continued fractions, acting on the interval $I_0=[0,\frac{1}{2}]$ or $I_0=[-\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2}]$. We…

For random piecewise linear systems T of the interval that are expanding on average we construct explicitly the density functions of absolutely continuous T-invariant measures. In case the random system uses only expanding maps our…

We present several continued fraction algorithms, each of which gives an eventually periodic expansion for every quadratic element of ${\mathbb Q}_p$ over ${\mathbb Q}$ and gives a finite expansion for every rational number. We also give,…

We study probabilistic iterated function systems (IFS), consisting of a finite or infinite number of average-contracting bi-Lipschitz maps on R^d. If our strong open set condition is also satisfied, we show that both upper and lower bounds…

Khinchin proved that the arithmetic mean of continued fraction digits of Lebesgue almost every irrational number in $(0,1)$ diverges to infinity. Hence, none of the classical limit theorems such as the weak and strong laws of large numbers…

We study an infinite family of one-parameter deformations, so-called $\alpha$-continued fractions, of interval maps associated to distinct triangle Fuchsian groups. In general for such one-parameter deformations, the function giving the…

We investigate a collection of orthonormal functions that encodes information about the continued fraction expansion of real numbers. When suitably ordered these functions form a complete system of martingale differences and are a special…

We give a heuristic method to solve explicitly for an absolutely continuous invariant measure for a piecewise differentiable, expanding map of a compact subset $I$ of Euclidean space $R^d$. The method consists of constructing a skew product…

Given a countable relational language $L$, we consider probability measures on the space of $L$-structures with underlying set $\mathbb{N}$ that are invariant under the logic action. We study the growth rate of the entropy function of such…

Let $x \in [0,1)$ with continued fraction expansion $[a_1(x),a_2(x),\dots]$, and let $\phi:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}^+$ be a non-decreasing function. We consider the numbers whose continued fraction expansions contain at least two partial…

A two-dimensional Gauss-Kuzmin theorem for $N$-continued fraction expansions is shown. More exactly, we obtain a Gauss-Kuzmin theorem related to the natural extension of the measure-dynamical system corresponding to these expansions. Then,…

In the paper we provide measure estimates for the set of numbers whose sequence of products of continued fraction partial quotients $M_n = a_1 \ldots a_n$ has exponential growth with rate close to the one predicted by Khintchine's theorem,…
