Automatic continued fractions are transcendental or quadratic

Yann Bugeaud (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We establish new combinatorial transcendence criteria for continued fraction expansions. Let  α = [ 0 ; a 1 , a 2 , ... ] be an algebraic number of degree at least three. One of our criteria implies that the sequence of partial quotients ( a ) 1 of  α is not ‘too simple’ (in a suitable sense) and cannot be generated by a finite automaton.
