We highlight some facts about continued fractions of real cubic irrationalities. This may be thought as a small section in a textbook on continued fractions.
Recently Greg Martin derived an interesting formula for the least common multiple of {1,2,...,n}. Here, we give an exposition of a concise proof in terms of the sine function.
We find, in the form of a continued fraction, the generating function for the number of (132)-avoiding permutations that have a given number of (123) patterns, and show how to extend this to permutations that have exactly one (132) pattern.…
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…
In some recent papers, the authors considered regular continued fractions of the form \[ [a_{0};\underbrace{a,...,a}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{2},...,a^{2}}_{m}, \underbrace{a^{3},...,a^{3}}_{m}, ... ], \] where $a_{0} \geq 0$, $a \geq 2$ and $m…
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…
In this paper, we represent a continued fraction expression of Mathieu series by a continued fraction formula of Ramanujan. As application, we obtain some new bounds for Mathieu series.
We construct an absolutely normal number whose continued fraction expansion is normal in the sense that it contains all finite patterns of partial quotients with the expected asymptotic frequency as given by the Gauss-Kuzmin measure. The…
We give a new short proof of the most simple relation between consecutive power sums of the first m positive integers.
We give an asymptotic formula for the total variation of the sequence of fractional parts of the quotients of a positive real number by the consecutive natural numbers.
We prove that the formula giving the exact value of the irrationality exponent of regular continued fractions remains valid for semi-regular continued fractions satisfyiong certain conditions.
An 1861 theorem of Hermite asserts that for every field extension $E/F$ of degree $5$ there exists an element of $E$ whose minimal polynomial over $F$ is of the form $f(x) = x^5 + c_2 x^3 + c_4 x + c_5$ for some $c_2, c_4, c_5 \in F$. We…
In \cite{d4}, we gave a method to construct a continued fraction of the function $F(x):=e^{x}E_{1}(x)$. More precisely we define $F_{1}(x)$ as the reciprocal of $F(x)$ and we inductively define $F_{m}(x)$ as the reciprocal of ``$F_{m-1}(x)$…
We give a concise introduction to the theory of continuants and show how Perron used them in his proof of Tietze theorem on the convergence of infinite semi-regular continued fractions, as well as for the study of the convergence of purely…
The continued fraction mapping maps a number in the interval $[0,1)$ to the sequence of its partial quotients. When restricted to the set of irrationals, which is a subspace of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}$, the continued fraction…
We build, for real quadratic fields, infinitely many periodic continuous fractions uniformly bounded, with a seemingly better bound than the known ones. We do that using continuous fraction expansions with the same shape as those of real…
Legendre discovered that the continued fraction expansion of $\sqrt N$ having odd period leads directly to an explicit representation of $N$ as the sum of two squares. In this vein, it was recently observed that the continued fraction…
We study a family of the Laurent biorthogonal polynomials arising from the Hermite continued fraction for a ratio of two complete elliptic integrals. Recurrence coefficients, explicit expression and the weight function for these polynomials…
The present paper proves that if for a power sum $\alpha$ over $\ZZ$ the length of the period of the continued fraction for $\sqrt{\alpha(n)}$ is constant for infinitely many even (resp. odd) $n$, then $\sqrt{\alpha(n)}$ admits a functional…
For regular continued fraction, if a real number $x$ and its rational approximation $p/q$ satisfying $|x-p/q|<1/q^2$, then, after deleting the last integer of the partial quotients of $p/q$, the sequence of the remaining partial quotients…
