A permutiple is a number which is an integer multiple of some permutation of its digits. A well-known example is 9801 since it is an integer multiple of its reversal, 1089. In this paper, we consider the permutiple problem in an entirely different setting: continued fractions. We pose the question of when the simple continued fraction representation of a rational number is an integer multiple of a permutation of its partial quotients (or digits, as we shall call them). We develop some general results and apply them to finding new examples. In doing so, we attempt to classify all 2, 3, and 4-digit continued fraction permutiples in terms of basic permutiple types which we discover along the way. We also generate new examples from old by finding conditions which guarantee that digit-string concatenation yields other permutiples.
In this paper we describe the group of symmetries of a two-dimensional continued fraction. As a multidimensional generalization of continued fractions we consider Klein polyhedra. We distinguish two types of symmetries: the Dirichlet-type ones, that correspond to the multiplication by units of the corresponding number field, and so called palindromic ones. The main result of the paper is a criterion for a two-dimensional continued fraction to have a palindromic symmetry. This criterion is analogous to the criterion for the period of a quadratic irrationality to be symmetric.
It is proved that the rank of an elliptic curve is one less the arithmetic complexity of the corresponding non-commutative torus. As an illustration, we consider a family of elliptic curves with complex multiplication.
For two integers $a$ and $b$, the plum-blossom product of $a$ and $b$ is defined as the ones of the usual product of $a$ and $b$ if the ones is less than or equal to $3$, or otherwise as the ones minus $10$. Under this operation, all integers is a commutative semigroup. Since some fine properties of this semigroup, the plum-blossom product method is the efficient method of multiplication and division of long integers, can be used to mental arithmetic and to computer science. In this paper, we improve the theory of plum-blossom products so that the new concept--the plum-blossom wedge product is…
We prove the convergence of a wide class of continued fractions, including generalized continued fractions over quaternions and octonions. Fractional points in these systems are not bounded away from the unit sphere, so that the iteration map is not uniformly expanding. We bypass this problem by analyzing digit sequences for points that converge to the unit sphere under iteration, expanding on previous methods of Dani-Nogueira.
We investigate the efficiency of several types of continued fraction expansions of a number in the unit interval using a generalization of Lochs theorem from 1964. Thus, we aimed to compare the efficiency by describing the rate at which the digits of one number-theoretic expansion determine those of another. We study Chan's continued fractions, $θ$-expansions, $N$-continued fractions and Rényi-type continued fractions. A central role in fulfilling our goal is played by the entropy of the absolutely continuous invariant probability measures of the associated dynamical systems.
This article presents a vertical multiplication formula for calculating the multiplication of any two multi-digit integers, which may be not only used to design the multiplier but also to the mental multiplication. Our algorithm is a generalization of that of Karatsuba and Offman, but it is superior to the latter because the latter is not suitable for oral calculation of multiplication of large integers. These two algorithms are both the vertical multiplication method, but in our algorithm the horizontal subtraction in stead of the horizontal addition used in the Kartsuba algorithm makes the i…
The Hurwitz complex continued fraction is a generalization of the nearest integer continued fraction. In this paper we prove various results concerning extremes of the modulus of Hurwitz complex continued fraction digits. This includes a Poisson law and an extreme value law. The results are based on cusp estimates of the invariant measure about which information is still limited. In the process, we get several results concerning extremes of nearest integer continued fractions as well.
A Trott number is a number $x\in(0,1)$ whose continued fraction expansion is equal to its base $b$ expansion for a given base $b$, in the following sense: If $x=[0;a_1,a_2,\dots]$, then $x=(0.\hat{a}_1\hat{a}_2\dots)_b$, where $\hat{a}_i$ is the string of digits resulting from writing $a_i$ in base $b$. In this paper we characterize the set of bases for which Trott numbers exist, and show that for these bases, the set $T_b$ of Trott numbers is a complete $G_δ$ set. We prove moreover that the union $T:=\bigcup_{b\geq 2} T_b$ is nowhere dense and has Hausdorff dimension less than one. Finally, w…
