    For a real number \(x\in[0,1)\) denote by \(d_j(x)\) the digits of its Lüroth expansion \[x=\sum_{j=1}^\infty\frac{1}{d_1(x)(d_1(x)-1)\dots d_{j-1}(x)(d_{j-1}(x)-1)d_j(x)}\] Denote the partial sums by \[\frac{p_n(x)}{q_n(x)}=\sum_{j=1}^n\frac{1}{d_1(x)(d_1(x)-1)\dots d_{j-1}(x)(d_{j-1}(x)-1)d_j(x)}\] In the paper the author studies the exceptional set \[F(\alpha,\beta)=\biggl\{x\in[0,1)\biggm| \liminf_{n\to\infty}\frac{\log(d_n(x)d_{n+1}(x))}{\log q_n(x)}=\alpha\quad\text{and}\quad \limsup_{n\to\infty}\frac{\log(d_n(x)d_{n+1}(x))}{\log q_n(x)}=\beta\biggr\}\] where \(0\le\alpha\le\beta\le\infty\). He proves that the Hausdorff dimension of \(F(\alpha,\beta)\) is equal to \(\frac{1}{\beta+2}\) if \(\alpha>0\), and is equal to \(\frac{1}{\beta+1}\) if \(\alpha=0\).
