چکیده

Letting x = [a1(x), a2(x), . . .] denote the continued fraction expansion of an irrational number x ∈ (0, 1), Khinchin proved that Sn(x) = ∑n k=1 ak(x) ∼ 1 log 2 n logn in measure, but not for almost every x. Diamond and Vaaler showed that removing the largest term from Sn(x), the previous asymptotics will hold almost everywhere, showing the crucial influence of the extreme terms of Sn(x) on the sum. In this paper we determine, for dn → ∞, dn/n → 0, the precise asymptotics of the sum of the dn largest terms of Sn(x) and show that the sum of the remaining terms has an asymptotically Gaussian distribution.

Effects of coupling on turbulent gas-particle boundary layer flows at borderline volume fractions using kinetic theory

This study is concerned with the prediction of particles’ velocity in a dilute turbulent gas-solidboundary layer flow using a fully Eulerian two-fluid model. The closures required for equationsdescribing the particulate phase are derived from the kinetic theory of granular flows. Gas phaseturbulence is modeled by one-equation model and solid phase turbulence by MLH theory. Resultsof one-way and...

On the real quadratic fields with certain continued fraction expansions and fundamental units

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the real quadratic number fields $Q(sqrt{d})$ which contain the specific form of the continued fractions expansions of integral basis element  where $dequiv 2,3( mod  4)$ is a square free positive integer. Besides, the present paper deals with determining the fundamental unit$$epsilon _{d}=left(t_d+u_dsqrt{d}right) 2left.right > 1$$and  $n_d$ and $m_d...

Maximal continuants and the Fine-Wilf theorem

The following problem was posed by C.A. Nicol: given any finite sequence of positive integers, find the permutation for which the continuant (i.e. the continued fraction denominator) having these entries is maximal, resp. minimal. The extremal arrangements are known for the regular continued fraction expansion. For the singular expansion induced by the backward shift d1/xe − 1/x the problem is ...

Hyperinvariant subspaces and quasinilpotent operators

For a bounded linear operator on Hilbert space we define a sequence of the so-called weakly extremal vectors‎. ‎We study the properties of weakly extremal vectors and show that the orthogonality equation is valid for weakly extremal vectors‎. ‎Also we show that any quasinilpotent operator $T$ has an hypernoncyclic vector‎, ‎and so $T$ has a nontrivial hyperinvariant subspace‎.
