The relative growth rate for partial quotients


Published: February 21, 2008
Keywords: metric diophantine approximation, Hausdorff dimension
Subject: 11K50, 11K60

Abstract
The rate of growth of the partial quotients of an irrational number is studied relative to the rate of approximation of the number by its convergents. The focus is on the Hausdorff dimension of exceptional sets on which different growth rates are achieved.
