The number of sequences of odd length in strict partitions (denoted as $\mathrm{sol}$), which plays a pivotal role in the first paper of this series, is investigated in different contexts, both new and old. Namely, we first note a direct…

Euler gives a continued fraction representation of (1 + x)n. involving 1,3,5,7,... and n^2-1,n^2-4,n^3-9,... and squares of z, for x=2y and y=z/(1-z). He evaluates this continued fraction at z=t sqrt(-1), for "vanishing" n, and for infinite…

We generalize the classical theory of periodic continued fractions (PCFs) over ${\mathbf Z}$ to rings ${\mathcal O}$ of $S$-integers in a number field. Let ${\mathcal B}=\{\beta, {\beta^*}\}$ be the multi-set of roots of a quadratic…

We give continued fraction algorithms for a particular class of Fuchsian triangle groups. In particular, we give an explicit form of each such group that is a subgroup of the Hilbert modular group of its trace field and provide an interval…

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…

An Engel series is a sum of the reciprocals of an increasing sequence of positive integers, which is such that each term is divisible by the previous one. Here we consider a particular class of Engel series, for which each term of the…

Several continued fraction expansions for $e$ have been produced by an automated conjecture generator (ACG) called \emph{The Ramanujan Machine}. Some of these were already known, some have recently been proved and some remain unproven.…

The goal of this paper is twofold. First, we review the recently developed geometric approach to the combinatorics of the median Genocchi numbers. The Genocchi numbers appear in this context as Euler characteristics of the degenerate flag…

Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x), a_3(x),\cdots]$ denote the continued fraction expansion of a real number $x \in [0,1)$. This paper is concerned with certain exceptional sets of the Borel-Bernstein Theorem on the growth rate of $\{a_n(x)\}_{n\geq1}$.…

A real vector space combined with an inverse for vectors is sufficient to define a vector continued fraction whose parameters consist of vector shifts and changes of scale. The choice of sign for different components of the vector inverse…

Schur's partition theorem states that the number of partitions of n into distinct parts congruent 1, 2 (mod 3) equals the number of partitions of n into parts which differ by >= 3, where the inequality is strict if a part is a multiple of…

In this paper, we improve some transcendence results for $p$--adic continued fractions. In particular, we prove that palindromic and quasi--periodic $p$--adic continued fractions converge either to transcendental numbers or quadratic…

Inspired by questions of convergence in continued fraction theory, Erd\H{o}s, Piranian and Thron studied the possible sets of divergence for arbitrary sequences of M\"obius maps acting on the Riemann sphere, $S^2$. By identifying $S^2$ with…

Our purpose is to give an account of the $r$-tuple problem on the increasing sequence of reduced fractions having denominators bounded by a certain size and belonging to a fixed real interval. We show that when the size grows to infinity,…

Let $F_Q$ be the set of Farey fractions of order $Q$. Given the integers $\d\ge 2$ and $0\le \c \le \d-1$, let $F_Q(c,d)$ be the subset of $F_Q$ of those fractions whose denominators are $\equiv c \pmod d$, arranged in ascending order. The…

We address the problem of determining the Hausdorff dimension of sets consisting of complex irrationals whose complex continued fraction digits satisfy prescribed restrictions and growth conditions. For the Hurwitz continued fraction, we…

We construct a random model to study the distribution of class numbers in special families of real quadratic fields $\mathbb Q(\sqrt d)$ arising from continued fractions. These families are obtained by considering periodic continued…

We introduce and study in detail a special class of backward continued fractions that represents a generalization of R\'enyi continued fractions. We investigate the main metrical properties of the digits occurring in these expansions and we…

Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…

Polynomially-recursive sequences generally have a periodic behavior mod $m$. In this paper, we analyze the period mod $m$ of a second order polynomially-recursive sequence. The problem originally comes from an enumeration of avoiding…
