Abstract: Let $[a_1(x),a_2(x),ldots,a_n(x),ldots]$ be the continued fraction expansion of an irrational number $xin(0,1)$. The study of the growth rate of the product of consecutive partial quotients $a_n(x)a_{n+1}(x)$ is associated with the improvements to Dirichlet's theorem (1842). We establish both the weak and strong laws of large numbers for the partial sums $S_n(x)=su{m}_{i=1}^n{a}_i(x)a_{i+1}(x)$ as well as, from a multifractal analysis point of view, investigate its increasing rate. Specifically, we prove the following results: medskip �egin{itemize} item For any $epsilon>0$, the Lebesgue measure of the set ${\displaystyle }$left{xin(0, 1): left|frac{ S_n(x)}{nlog^2 n}-frac1{2log2} ight|geq epsilon ight}${\displaystyle }$tends to zero as $n$ to infinity. item For Lebesgue almost all $xin(0,1)$, ${\displaystyle }$limlimits_{n ightarrow infty} frac{S_n(x)-maxlimits_{1leq i leq n}a_i(x)a_{i+1}(x)}{nlog^2n}=frac{1}{2log2}.${\displaystyle }$ item The Hausdorff dimension of the set ${\displaystyle }$E(phi):=left{xin(0,1):limlimits_{n ightarrow infty}frac{S_n(x)}{phi(n)}=1 ight}${\displaystyle }$ is determined for a range of increasing functions $phi:mathbbNomathbb{R}^{+}$. end{itemize}
