Remarks on automata, functional equations and transcendence
We display several infinite products with interesting continued fraction expansions. Specifically, for various small values of necessarily excluding since that case cannot occur, we display infinite products in the field of formal power series whose truncations yield their every -th convergent.
It is well known that the continued fraction expansion of readily displays the midpoint of the principal cycle of ideals, that is, the point halfway to a solution of . Here we notice that, analogously, the point halfway to a solution of can be recognised. We explain what is going on.
