Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number $d$ can be represented as a denominator (continuant) of a finite continued fraction $\frac{b}{d}=[d_1,d_2,...,d_{k}],$ whose partial quotients $d_1,d_2,...,d_{k}$ belong to a finite alphabet $\A\subseteq\N.$ In this paper it is proved for an alphabet $\A,$ such that the Hausdorff dimension $\delta_{\A}$ of the set of infinite continued fractions whose partial quotients belong to $\A,$ that the set of numbers $d,$ satisfying Zaremba's conjecture with the alphabet $\A,$ has positive proportion in $\N.$ The result improves our previous reinforcement of the corresponding Bourgain-Kontorovich's theorem.

Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number d can be represented as a denominator of a finite continued fraction b/d = [d1,d2,...,dk], with all partial quotients d1,d2,...,dk being bounded by an absolute constant A. Several new theorems concerning this conjecture were proved by Bourgain and Kontorovich in 2011. The easiest of them states that the set of numbers satisfying Zaremba's conjecture with A = 50 has positive proportion in natural numbers. In...

Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number can be represented as a denominator (continuant) of a finit continued fraction with all partial quotients being bounded by an absolute constant A. Recently (in 2011) several new theorems concerning this conjecture were proved by Bourgain and Kontorovich. The easiest of them states that the set of numbers satisfying Zaremba's conjecture with A = 50 has positive proportion in N. In 2014 the author with D. A. ...

In this paper we study the dimension spectrum of continued fractions with coefficients restricted to infinite subsets of natural numbers. We prove that if $E$ is any arithmetic progression, the set of primes, or the set of squares $\{n^2\}_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$, then the continued fractions whose digits lie in $E$ have full dimension spectrum, which we denote by $DS(\mathcal{CF}_E)$. Moreover we prove that if $E$ is an infinite set of consecutive powers then the dimension spect...

This paper has been withdrawn Any real number $x$ in the unit interval can be expressed as a continued fraction $x=[n_1,...,n_{_N},...]$. Subsets of zero measure are obtained by imposing simple conditions on the $n_{_N}$. By imposing $n_{_N}\le m \forall N\in \zN$, Jarnik defined the corresponding sets $E_m$ and gave a first estimate of $d_H(E_m)$, $d_H$ the Hausdorff dimension. Subsequent authors improved these estimates. In this paper we deal with $d_H(E_m)$ and $d_H(F_m)...

Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),a_3(x),\cdots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of $x\in (0,1)$. This paper is concerned with certain sets of continued fractions with non-decreasing partial quotients. As a main result, we obtain the Hausdorff dimension of the set \[\left\{x\in(0,1): a_1(x)\leq a_2(x)\leq \cdots,\ \limsup\limits_{n\to\infty}\frac{\log a_n(x)}{\psi(n)}=1\right\}\] for any $\psi:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^+$ satisfying $\psi(n)\to\infty$ as $n\to\infty$.

The theory of uniform Diophantine approximation concerns the study of Dirichlet improvable numbers and the metrical aspect of this theory leads to the study of the product of consecutive partial quotients in continued fractions. It is known that the dimension of the set of Dirichlet non-improvable numbers depends upon the number of partial quotients in the product string. However, one can see that the Hausdorff dimension is the same for any number of consecutive partial quoti...

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of continued fractions and explore the ergodic behaviour of the products of mixed partial quotients. For any $d\geq 1$ and $\Phi:\N\to \R_+$, our focus lies on analysing the Hausdorff dimension of the set of real numbers for which the product of mixed partial quotients $a_n(x)a_{2n}(x)\cdots a_{dn}(x)\geq \Phi(n)$ for infinitely many positive integers $n$. Our findings shed light on the size of the set of exceptions to Bourgain (19...
