In some recent papers, the authors considered regular continued fractions of the form \[ [a_{0};\underbrace{a,...,a}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{2},...,a^{2}}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{3},...,a^{3}}_{m}, ... ], \] where $a_{0} \geq 0$, $a \geq 2$ and $m…

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…

If a continued fraction $K_{n=1}^{\infty} a_{n}/b_{n}$ is known to converge but its limit is not easy to determine, it may be easier to use an extension of $K_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n}/b_{n}$ to find the limit. By an extension of…

We give an exponential upper bound on the probabilitywith which the denominator of the $n$th convergent in the regular continued fraction expansion stays away from the mean $\frac{n\pi^2}{12\log2}$. The exponential rate is best possible,…

Let $x=[a_1(x),a_2(x),\ldots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of $x\in[0,1)$. We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of \begin{equation*}E_{even}=\{x\in[0,1)\colon a_{2n}(x)\to\infty\ (n\to\infty)\}.\end{equation*} is 1/2. In general,…

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 ``$F_{m-1}(x)$…
