Abstract: We study the values of the recently introduced involution J (jimm) of the real line, which is equivariant with the action of the group PGL(2,Z). We test our conjecture that this involution sends algebraic numbers of degree at least three to transcendental values. We also deduce some theoretical results concerning the continued fraction statistics of the generic values of this involution and compare them with the experimental results.
