Ya. Khintchine's classic of the same title. Besides new and simpler proofs for many of the standard topics, numerous numerical examples and applications are included (the continued fraction of e, Ostrowski representations and t-expansions, period lengths of quadratic surds, the general Pell's equation, homogeneous and inhomogeneous diophantine approximation, Hall's theorem, the Lagrange and Markov spectra, asymmetric approximation, etc). Suitable for upper level undergraduate and beginning graduate students, the presentation is self-contained and the metrical results are developed as strong laws of large numbers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction; the law of best approximation; periodic continued fractions; applications; metrical theory; applications to metrical diophantine approximation.","brand":"World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047211893079,"sku":"9789810210526","price":30.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9789810210526.jpg?v=1750970691","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/continued-fractions-9789810210526","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
