A well known theorem of Lagrange states that the simple continued fraction of a real number $\alpha$ is periodic if and only if $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational. We examine non-periodic and non-simple continued fractions formed by two…
Execution graphs of parallel loop programs exhibit a nested, repeating structure. We show how such graphs that are the result of nested repetition can be represented by succinct parametric structures. This parametric graph template…
We prove the convergence of a wide class of continued fractions, including generalized continued fractions over quaternions and octonions. Fractional points in these systems are not bounded away from the unit sphere, so that the iteration…
Via a unified geometric approach, a class of generalized trigonometric functions with two parameters are analytically extended to maximal domains on which they are univalent. Some consequences are deduced concerning radius of convergence…
We develop a new approach to recurrence and the existence of non-constant harmonic functions on infinite weighted graphs. The approach is based on the capacity of subsets of metric boundaries with respect to intrinsic metrics. The main tool…
In this article, we show that the algorithm of maintaining expander decompositions in graphs undergoing edge deletions directly by removing sparse cuts repeatedly can be made efficient. Formally, for an $m$-edge undirected graph $G$, we say…
In this paper we recall some results and some criteria on the convergence of matrix continued fractions. The aim of this paper is to give some properties and results of continued fractions with matrix arguments. Then we give continued…
We examine two questions regarding Fourier frequencies for a class of iterated function systems (IFS). These are iteration limits arising from a fixed finite families of affine and contractive mappings in $\br^d$, and the ``IFS'' refers to…
Let $K\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ be the unique attractor of an iterated function system. We consider the case where $K$ is an interval and study those elements of $K$ with a unique coding. We prove under mild conditions that the set of points…
We study the postcritically finite non-polynomial map $f(x)=\frac{1}{(x-1)^2}$ over a number field $k$ and prove various results about the geometric $G^{\text{geom}}(f)$ and arithmetic $G^{\text{arith}}(f)$ iterated monodromy groups of $f$.…
We show how the size of the Galois groups of iterates of a quadratic polynomial $f(x)$ can be parametrized by certain rational points on the curves $C_n:y^2=f^n(x)$ and their quadratic twists. To that end, we study the arithmetic of such…
We construct a class of quadratic irrationals having continued fractions of period $n\geq2$ with "small" partial quotients for which certain integer multiples have continued fractions of period $1$, $2$ or $4$ with "large" partial…
Given a 0-1 square matrix A, when can some of the 1's be changed to -1's in such a way that the permanent of A equals the determinant of the modified matrix? When does a real square matrix have the property that every real matrix with the…
We derive continued fractions for partition generating functions, utilizing both Euler's techniques and Ramanujan's techniques. Although our results are for integer partitions there is scope to extend this work to vector partitions,…
A greedily routable region (GRR) is a closed subset of $\mathbb R^2$, in which each destination point can be reached from each starting point by choosing the direction with maximum reduction of the distance to the destination in each point…
A widely used approach to compute the action $f(A)v$ of a matrix function $f(A)$ on a vector $v$ is to use a rational approximation $r$ for $f$ and compute $r(A)v$ instead. If $r$ is not computed adaptively as in rational Krylov methods,…
The connection between continued fractions and orthogonality which is familiar for $J$-fractions and $T$-fractions is extended to what we call $R$-fractions of type I and II. These continued fractions are associated with recurrence…
We prove a structure theorem for multiplicative functions which states that an arbitrary bounded multiplicative function can be decomposed into two terms, one that is approximately periodic and another that has small Gowers uniformity norm…
We construct differential algebras in which spaces of (one-dimensional) periodic ultradistributions are embedded. By proving a Schwartz impossibility type result, we show that our embeddings are optimal in the sense of being consistent with…
Using the slow triangle map (a type of multi-dimensional continued fraction algorithm), we exhibit a method for generating any number of new identities for subsets of integer partitions.
