We consider series of the form $$ \frac{p}{q} +\sum_{j=2}^\infty \frac{1}{x_j}, $$ where $x_1=q$ and the integer sequence $(x_n)$ satisfies a certain non-autonomous recurrence of second order, which entails that $x_n|x_{n+1}$ for $n\geq 1$.…
The Hankel transform of an integer sequence is a much studied and much applied mathematical operation. In this note, we extend the notion in a natural way to sequences of $d$ integer sequences. We explore links to generalized continued…
We consider a family of integer sequences generated by nonlinear recurrences of the second order, which have the curious property that the terms of the sequence, and integer multiples of the ratios of successive terms (which are also…
We describe a simple method that produces automatically closed forms for the coefficients of continued fractions expansions of a large number of special functions. The function is specified by a non-linear differential equation and initial…
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…
In this note, we study a family of subgraphs of the Farey graph, denoted as $\mathcal{F}_N$ for every $N\in\mathbb{N}.$ We show that $\mathcal{F}_N$ is connected if and only if $N$ is either equal to one or a prime power. We introduce a…
We describe various properties of continued fraction expansions of complex numbers in terms of Gaussian integers. Numerous distinct such expansions are possible for a complex number. They can be arrived at through various algorithms, as…
The notion of 'bifurcating continued fractions' is introduced. Two coupled sequences of non-negative integers are obtained from an ordered pair of positive real numbers in a manner that generalizes the notion of continued fractions. These…
The aim of this note is to show the existence of a correspondance between certain algebraic continued fractions in fields of power series over a finite field and automatic sequences in the same finite field. this connection is illustrated…
Holderian functions have strong non-linearities, which result in singularities in the derivatives. This manuscript presents several fractional-order Taylor expansions of H\"olderian functions around points of non- differentiability. These…
This paper concerns the relationships between continued fractions and the geometry of the Stern-Brocot diagram. Each rational number can be expressed as a continued fraction $[a_0; a_1, \ldots, a_n]$ whose terms $a_i$ are integers and are…
Fractional calculus is the calculus of differentiation and integration of non-integer orders. In a recently paper (Annals of Physics 323 (2008) 2756-2778), the Fundamental Theorem of Fractional Calculus is highlighted. Based on this…
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…
For $\alpha_0 = \left[a_0, a_1, \ldots\right]$ an infinite continued fraction and $\sigma$ a linear fractional transformation, we study the continued fraction expansion of $\sigma(\alpha_0)$ and its convergents. We provide the continued…
In an unbounded plane, straight lines are used extensively for mathematical analysis. They are tools of convenience. However, those with high slope values become unbounded at a faster rate than the independent variable. So, straight lines,…
Rational approximations to a square root $\sqrt{k}$ can be produced by iterating the transformation $f(x) = (dx+k)/(x+d)$ starting from $\infty$ for any positive integer $d$. We show that these approximations coincide infinitely often with…
There are infinite processes (matrix products, continued fractions, $(r,s)$-matrix continued fractions, recurrence sequences) which, under certain circumstances, do not converge but instead diverge in a very predictable way. We give a…
We reformulate several known results about continued fractions in combinatorial terms. Among them the theorem of Conway and Coxeter and that of Series, both relating continued fractions and triangulations. More general polygon dissections…
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 introduced a new continued fraction expansions in our previous paper. For these expansions, we show formulae of probability about incomplete quotients. Furthermore, we prove the existence of invariant measures with respect to the…
