Continued fractions and Catalan problems.
The main purpose of this work is to present new families of transcendental continued fractions with bounded partial quotients. Our results are derived thanks to combinatorial transcendence criteria recently obtained by the first two authors in [3].
This paper is a brief review of some general Diophantine results, best approximations and their applications to the theory of uniform distribution.
We provide a generalization of continued fractions to the Heisenberg group. We prove an explicit estimate on the rate of convergence of the infinite continued fraction and several surprising analogs of classical formulas about continued fractions.
