In this paper, we represent a continued fraction expression of Mathieu series by a continued fraction formula of Ramanujan. As application, we obtain some new bounds for Mathieu series.
We show that the growth rate of denominator $Q_n$ of the $n$-th convergent of negative expansion of $x$ and the rate of approximation: $$ frac{log{n}}{n}log{left|x-frac{P_n}{Q_n}right|}rightarrow -frac{pi^2}{3} quad text{in measure.} $$ for a.e. $x$.
In the course of the proof, we reprove known inspiring results that arithmetic mean of digits of negative continued fraction converges to 3 in measure, although the limit inferior is 2, and the limit superior is infinite almost everywhere.
The main aim of this paper is to further develop the multiple-correction method that formulated in our previous works~cite{CXY, Cao}. As its applications, we establish a kind of hybrid-type finite continued fraction approximations related to BBP-type
series of the constant $pi$ and other classical constants, such as Catalan constant, $pi^2$, etc.
The goal of this paper is to formulate a systematical method for constructing the fastest possible continued fraction approximations of a class of functions. The main tools are the multiple-correction method, the generalized Morticis lemma and the Mo
rtici-transformation. As applications, we will present some sharp inequalities, and the continued fraction expansions associated to the volume of the unit ball. In addition, we obtain a new continued fraction expansion of Ramanujan for a ratio of the gamma functions, which is showed to be the fastest possible. Finally, three conjectures are proposed.
In 1914, Kempner proved that the series 1/1 + 1/2 + ... + 1/8 + 1/10 + 1/11 + ... + 1/18 + 1/20 + 1/21 + ... where the denominators are the positive integers that do not contain the digit 9, converges to a sum less than 90. The actual sum is about 22
.92068. In 1916, Irwin proved that the sum of 1/n where n has at most a finite number of 9s is also a convergent series. We show how to compute sums of Irwins series to high precision. For example, the sum of the series 1/9 + 1/19 + 1/29 + 1/39 + 1/49 + ... where the denominators have exactly one 9, is about 23.04428708074784831968. Another example: the sum of 1/n where n has exactly 100 zeros is about 10 ln(10) + 1.007x10^-197 ~ 23.02585; note that the first, and largest, term in this series is the tiny 1/googol.
We establish the (level-1) large deviation principles for three kinds of means associated with the backward continued fraction expansion. We show that: for the harmonic and geometric means, the rate functions vanish exactly at one point; for the arit
hmetic mean, it is completely degenerate, vanishing at every point in its effective domain. Our method of proof employs the thermodynamic formalism for finite Markov shifts, and a multifractal analysis for the Renyi map generating the backward continued fraction digits. We completely determine the class of unbounded arithmetic functions for which the rate functions vanish at every point in unbounded intervals.
