Pseudo-arclength continuation is a well-established method for generating a numerical curve approximating the solution of an underdetermined system of nonlinear equations. It is an inherently sequential predictor-corrector method in which…
In this paper we introduce a link between geometry of ordinary continued fractions and trajectories of points that moves according to the second Kepler law. We expand geometric interpretation of ordinary continued fractions to the case of…
Given a polynomial $p$ of degree $d$ and a bound $\kappa$ on a condition number of $p$, we present the first root-finding algorithms that return all its real and complex roots with a number of bit operations quasi-linear in $d…
The theory of continued fractions of functions $ \sqrt D $ is used to give lower bound for class numbers $h(D)$ of general real quadratic function fields $K=k(\sqrt D)$ over $k={\bf F}_q(T)$. For five series of real quadratic function…
Stochastic sequential quadratic optimization (SQP) methods for solving continuous optimization problems with nonlinear equality constraints have attracted attention recently, such as for solving large-scale data-fitting problems subject to…
We establish a central limit theorem for counting large continued fraction digits $(a_n)$, i.e. we count occurrences $\{a_n>b_n\}$, where $(b_n)$ is a sequence of positive integers. Our result improves a similar result by Philipp which…
We report on a verification of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra in ACL2(r). The proof consists of four parts. First, continuity for both complex-valued and real-valued functions of complex numbers is defined, and it is shown that…
We call an $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ regainingly approximable if there exists a computable nondecreasing sequence $(a_n)_n$ of rational numbers converging to $\alpha$ with $\alpha - a_n < 2^{-n}$ for infinitely many $n \in \mathbb{N}$. We…
We find the exact best possible range of those $p > 1$ for which any function which belongs to $A_1(\mathbb{R})$, with $A_1$-constant equal to $c$, must also belong to $L^p$. In this way we provide alternative proofs of the results in [2]…
We introduce and investigate a new notion of the theory of approximation-the so-called degenerate approximation, i.e. approximation of the function of two (and more) variables (kernel) by means of degenerate function (kernel). We apply…
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…
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…
J. Hurwitz introduced an algorithm that generates a continued fraction expansion for complex numbers $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$, where the partial quotients belong to $(1+i)\mathbb{Z}[i]$. J. Hurwitz's work also provides a result analogous to…
We describe an approximate rational arithmetic with round-off errors (both absolute and relative) controlled by the user. The rounding procedure is based on the continued fraction expansion of real numbers. Results of computer experiments…
For every couple (p;q) of strictly positive integers, the `` alternate congruo-harmonic '' series parametrized by (p;q), whose general term is (-1)^k/(pk+q), converges infra-linearly and very slowly. On the basis of a generalized continued…
Our goal is to finally settle the persistent problem in Diophantine Approximation of finding best linear approximates. Classical results from the theory of continued fractions provide the solution for the special homogeneous case in the…

We exhibit the first explicit examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of every dimension $0 < \alpha < 1$ by showing that certain sets of well-approximable $p$-adic numbers are Salem sets. We construct measures supported on these sets that…
We study $p$-adic Euler's series $E_p(t) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}k!t^k$ at a point $p^a$, $a \in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 1}$, and use Pad\'e approximations to prove a lower bound for the $p$-adic absolute value of the expression $cE_p\left(\pm…
We extend a result of Han\v{c}l, Kolouch and Nair on the irrationality and transcendence of continued fractions. We show that for a sequence $\{\alpha_n\}$ of algebraic integers of bounded degree, each attaining the maximum absolute value…
