Continued Fractions with Three Limit Points
The research described in this paper was motivated by an enigmatic entry in Ramanujan’s lost notebook [11, p. 45] in which he claimed, in an unorthodox fashion, that a certain q-continued fraction possesses three limit points. More precisely, he claimed that as n tends to ∞ in the three residue classes modulo 3, the nth partial quotients tend, respectively, to three distinct limits, which he ex...
متن کاملPeriodic Continued Fractions And
We investigate when an algebraic function of the form φ(λ) = −B(λ)+ √ R(λ) A(λ) , where R(λ) is a polynomial of odd degree N = 2g + 1 with coefficients in C, can be written as a periodic α-fraction of the form
متن کاملContinued Fractions and Gaps
Given a continued fraction, we construct a certain function that is discontinuous at every rational number p/q. We call this discontinuity the “gap”. We then try to characterize the gap sizes, and find, to the first order, the size is 1/q2, and that, for higher orders, the gap appears to be perfectly ’randomly’ distributed, in that it is Cauchy-dense on the unit square, and thus, this function ...
متن کاملGeneralized Continued Logarithms and Related Continued Fractions
We study continued logarithms as introduced by Bill Gosper and studied by J. Borwein et. al.. After providing an overview of the type I and type II generalizations of binary continued logarithms introduced by Borwein et. al., we focus on a new generalization to an arbitrary integer base b. We show that all of our so-called type III continued logarithms converge and all rational numbers have fin...
متن کاملExponential and Continued Fractions
The continued fraction expansion of a real number is a fundamental and revealing expansion through its connection with Euclidean algorithm and with ``best'' rational approximations (see [HW]). At the same time, it is very poorly understood for some interesting numbers. We know that it is essentially unique and finite (i.e., terminating) exactly for rational numbers and periodic exactly for quad...
