In this paper, we exhibit the explicit forms of continued fraction expansions of a family of algebraic power series over a finite field and we study their asymptotic distribution of approximation exponents.

Using the periodic continued fraction, we give concrete examples of the points at which the derivatives of the Minkowski question mark function does not exist. We also give examples of the differentiability points which show that recent apparently independent results are consistent and closely related.

For ${\alpha}{\geq}1$, let $s_{\alpha}(n)={\lceil}{\alpha}n{\rceil}-{\lceil}{\alpha}(n-1){\rceil}$. A continued fraction $C({\alpha})=[0;s_{\alpha}(1),s_{\alpha}(2),{\ldots}]$ is considered and analyzed. Appealing to Diophantine approximation, we investigate the differentiability of $C({\alpha})$, and then show its singularity.

In this paper, we use theta-function identities involving parameters 𝑙_5,n, 𝑙'_5,n, and 𝑙'_5,4n to evaluate the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fractions $R(e^{-2{\pi}{\sqrt{n/20}}})$ and $S(e^{-{\pi}{\sqrt{n/5}}})$ for some positive rational numbers n.

The dynamic response of two-dimensional unbounded domain on the rigid bedrock in the time domain is numerically obtained. It is realized by the modified scaled boundary finite element method (SBFEM) in which the original scaling center is replaced by a scaling line. The formulation bases on expanding dynamic stiffness by using the continued fraction approach. The solution converges rapidly over the whole time range along with the order of the continued fraction increases. In addition, the method is suitable for large scale systems. The numerical method is employed which is a combination of the time domain SBFEM for far field and the finite element method used for near field. By using the continued fraction solution and introducing auxiliary variables, the equation of motion of unbounded domain is built. Applying the spectral shifting technique, the virtual modes of motion equation are eliminated. Standard procedure in structural dynamic is directly applicable for time domain problem. Since the coefficient matrixes of equation are banded and symmetric, the equation can be solved efficiently by using the direct time domain integration method. Numerical examples demonstrate the increased robustness, accuracy and superiority of the proposed method. The suitability of proposed method for time domain simulations of complex systems is also demonstrated.

There are several theories to say that 'Mathematics is beautiful', but the typical one of them is a theory about the golden ratio. Often the golden ratio apt to be considered only as the geometric shapes or the simple number of ratio used in buildings and arts. However in this paper, we studied to consider the mathematical theories which are contained in their inside. In particular, we investigate the various expressions of the continued fraction which are represented by the golden ratio.

It is a surprising but now well-known fact that there exist algebraic power series of degree higher than two with partial quotients of bounded degrees in their continued fraction expansions, while there is no single algebraic real number known with bounded partial quotients. However, it seems that these special algebraic power series are quite rare and it is hard to determine their continued fraction expansions explicitly. To the short list of known examples, we add a new family of cubic power series with bounded partial quotients.

We find modular equations of degree 3 to evaluate some new values of the cubic continued fraction $G(e^{-{\pi}\sqrt{n}})$ and $G(-e^{-{\pi}\sqrt{n}})$ for $n={\frac{2{\cdot}4^m}{3}}$, ${\frac{1}{3{\cdot}4^m}}$, and ${\frac{2}{3{\cdot}4^m}}$, where m = 1, 2, 3, or 4.

Let T be Gauss transformation on the unit interval defined by T (x) = ${\frac{1}{x}}$ where {x} is the fractional part of x. Gauss transformation is closely related to the continued fraction expansions of real numbers. We show that almost every x is mod M normal number of Gauss transformation with respect to intervals whose endpoints are rational or quadratic irrational. Its connection to Central Limit Theorem is also shown.

In this paper, we present new bounds on the fundamental units of real quadratic fields ${\mathbb{Q}}({\sqrt{d}})$ using the continued fraction expansion of the integral basis element of the field. Furthermore, we apply these bounds to Dirichlet's class number formula. Consequently, we provide computational advantages to estimate the class numbers of such fields. We also give some numerical examples.
