Large deviations for denominators of continued fractions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We give an exponential upper bound on the probabilitywith which the denominator of the nth convergent in the regular continued fraction expansion stays away from the mean fracnpi212log2. The exponential rate is best possible, given by an analytic function related to the dimension spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for the Gauss transformation.
