Simple Continued Fractions and Their Convergents
The article introduces simple continued fractions. They are defined as an infinite sequence of integers. The characterization of rational numbers in terms of simple continued fractions is shown. We also give definitions of convergents of continued fractions, and several important properties of simple continued fractions and their convergents. For simplicity, we adopt the following convention: a...
متن کاملOptimal Error Bounds for Convergents of a Family of Continued Fractions
Ž . Let F be the family of continued fractions K a r1 , where a s yg , a s p 1 1 p Ž . < < 1 y g g x , p s 2, 3, . . . , with 0 F g F 1, g fixed, and x F 1, p s py1 p p p p p 2, 3, . . . . In this work, we derive upper bounds on the errors in the convergents of Ž . K a r1 that are uniform for F, and optimal in the sense that they are attained by p some continued fraction in F. For the special c...
متن کاملSome Arithmetical Properties of the Convergents of a Continued Fraction
where the al , a2 , . . . are positive integers . We show in § 1 that, for "almost all" ~, G(B,,) increases rapidly with n (Theorem 1) . In § 2, we prove that ~ is a Liouville number (i .e . B,, < Bell-1-1 for arbitrary E > 0 and an infinity of 7a) if G(B„) is bounded for all n (Theorem 2) ; and, in fact, there are Liouville numbers with bounded G(B„) . If the denominators a,,+1 are bounded or ...
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 کاملContinued Logarithms and Associated Continued Fractions
We investigate some of the connections between continued fractions and continued logarithms. We study the binary continued logarithms as introduced by Bill Gosper and explore two generalizations of the continued logarithm to base b. We show convergence for them using equivalent forms of their corresponding continued fractions. Through numerical experimentation we discover that, for one such for...
