چکیده
We exhibit explicitly the continued fraction expansion of some algebraic power series over a finite field. also discuss Diophantine equations on ring polynomials, which are intimately related to these series.

Exponents of Diophantine Approximation and Sturmian Continued Fractions
– Let ξ be a real number and let n be a positive integer. We define four exponents of Diophantine approximation, which complement the exponents w n (ξ) and w * n (ξ) defined by Mahler and Koksma. We calculate their six values when n = 2 and ξ is a real number whose continued fraction expansion coincides with some Sturmian sequence of positive integers, up to the initial terms. In particular, we...
متن کاملContinued Fractions, Diophantine Approximations, and Design of Color Transforms
We study a problem of approximate computation of color transforms (with real and possibly irrational factors) using integer arithmetics. We show that precision of such computations can be significantly improved if we allow input or output variables to be scaled by some constant. The problem of finding such a constant turns out to be related to the classic Diophantine approximation problem. We u...
متن کاملNorm Form Equations and Continued Fractions
We consider the Diophantine equation of the form x2−Dy2 = c, where c ∣∣ 2D, gcd(x, y) = 1, and provide criteria for solutions in terms of congruence conditions on the fundamental solution of the Pell Equation x2 − Dy2 = 1. The proofs are elementary, using only basic properties of simple continued fractions. The results generalize various criteria for such solutions, and expose the central norm,...
متن کامل2d Continued Fractions and Positive Matrices
The driving force of this paper is a local symmetry in lattices. The goal is two theorems: a partial converse to the Perron-Frobenius theorem in dimension 3 and a characterization of conjugacy in Sl(Z). In the process we develop a geometric approach to higher dimension continued fractions, HDCF. HDCF is an active area with a long history: see for example Lagarias, [L],[Br]. The algorithm: Let Z...
متن کاملA Metric Theorem for Restricted Diophantine Approximation in Positive Characteristic
0 whenever ai = 0 for all i ∈ Z, k whenever an 6= 0 and ai = 0 for i < n. We can interpret F(X) as the completion of F(X) in this absolute value. Diophantine approximation in F(X), where a generic element is approximated by elements from the field of fractions F(X), has been studied by numerous authors (the survey papers [9, 11] contain some of the known results). Broadly speaking, the object o...
