Zaremba's Conjecture for Geometric Sequences: An Algorithm

Even though Zaremba's conjecture remains open, Bourgain and Kontorovich solved the problem for a full density subset. Nevertheless, there are only a handful of explicit sequences known to satisfy the strong version of the conjecture, all of which were obtained using essentially the same algorithm. In this note, we provide a refined algorithm using the folding lemma for continued fractions, which both generalizes and improves on the old one. As a result, we uncover new examples that fulfill the strong version of Zaremba's conjecture.
