The distribution of badly approximable rationals and continuants with bounded digits, II Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • For fixed n > 1, let Qn(x) = {(a, b) Z Z such that 1 a b x, gcd(a, b) = 1, and all digits are n in the continued fraction expansion of a/b}. An asymptotic estimate for # Qn(x) as x t8 is established, as is the asymptotic distribution of a b within Qn(x). 1990.
