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…

We study the generalized continued fraction expansions of complex numbers in term of elements from Euclidean subrings, especially Gaussian or Eisenstein integers, in a general framework as pursued in [3] and [1]. We introduce a common…

We provide a short proof of the 1-dimensional flat chain conjecture.

By changing variables in a suitable way and using dominated convergence methods, this note gives a short proof of Stirling's formula and its refinement.

In \cite{GCF} it is proved that any quadratic irrational number has a representation as a continuous, infinite and periodic fraction. In 1848, Charles Hermite through a letter Jacobi \cite{Per} wondered if this fact could be generalized to…

Apparently new expressions are given for the exponential of a hermitian matrix,A, in the 2x2,3x3,and 4x4 cases. Replacing A by iA these are explicit formulas for the Fourier transform of exp(iA).

Given positive integers $j,k$, with $j\geq 2$, we show that there are positive integers $d,e$ such that $\sqrt{d}$ has continued fraction expansion $\sqrt{d}=[e,\overline{k,\dots,k,2e}]$, with period $j$, if and only if $k$ is even or…

We establish an equidistribution result for push-forwards of certain locally finite algebraic measures in the adelic extension of the space of lattices in the plane. As an application of our analysis we obtain new results regarding the…

We present several continued fraction algorithms, each of which gives an eventually periodic expansion for every quadratic element of ${\mathbb Q}_p$ over ${\mathbb Q}$ and gives a finite expansion for every rational number. We also give,…

We consider sets of real numbers in $[0,1)$ with prescribed frequencies of partial quotients in their regular continued fraction expansions. It is shown that the Hausdorff dimensions of these sets, always bounded from below by $1/2$, are…

Let $\frak E$ denote be the ring of Eisenstein integers. Let $z\in \mathbb C$ and $p_n,q_n \in \frak E$ be such that $\{p_n/q_n\}$ is the sequence of convergents corresponding to the continued fraction expansion of $z$ with respect to the…

In 1985, Robbins observed by computer the continued fraction expansion of certain algebraic power series over a finite field. Incidentally, he came across a particular equation of degree 4 in characteristic p=13. This equation has an…

Proper continued fractions are generalized continued fractions with positive integer numerators $a_i$ and integer denominators with $b_i\geq a_i$. In this paper we study the strength of approximation of irrational numbers to their…

If the continued fractions of two irrational numbers have a common complete quotient, then these two numbers are in the same orbit under the action of $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$. The converse is Serret's well-known theorem, but we give a…

In this work, we present continued fractions for the arithmetic, geometric, harmonic and cotangent means of $[a_0,a_1,\dots,a_k]$ and $[a_0,a_1,\dots,a_k,a_{k+1}]$, and some of their applications.

Let $x \in [0,1)$ be a real number and denote its continued fraction expansion by $[a_1(x),a_2(x), a_3(x),\cdots]$. The convergence exponent of these partial quotients is defined as \[ \tau(x):= \inf\left\{s \geq 0: \sum_{n \geq 1}…

We give a proof of the o-minimal version of the Whitney Extension Theorem simplified as compared to the original ones. A new simplifying ingredient is a definable variant of Urysohn's lemma for class $\mathcal{C}^q$ (see Section 3).

We find a formula for the number of permutations of $[n]$ that have exactly $s$ runs up and down. The formula is at once terminating, asymptotic, and exact.

This article provides a simple proof of the quadratic formula, which also produces an efficient and natural method for solving general quadratic equations. The derivation is computationally light and conceptually natural, and has the…

In this paper we present a convergence theorem for continued fractions of the form $K_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n}/1$. By deriving conditions on the $a_{n}$ which ensure that the odd and even parts of $K_{n=1}^{\infty}a_{n}/1$ converge, these same…
