Metrical properties for the weighted products of multiple partial quotients in continued fractions
Abstract
The classical Khintchine and Jarník theorems, generalizations of a consequence of Dirichlet's theorem, are fundamental results in the theory of Diophantine approximation. These theorems are concerned with the size of the set of real numbers for which the partial quotients in their continued fraction expansions grows with a certain rate. Recently it was observed that the growth of product of pairs of consecutive partial quotients in the continued fraction expansion of a real number is associated with improvements to Dirichlet's theorem. In this paper we consider the products of several consecutive partial quotients raised to different powers. Namely, we find the Lebesgue measure and the Hausdorff dimension of the following set: $$ {\D_{\mathbf t}}(\psi):=\left\{x\in[0, 1): \prod\limits_{i=0}^{m-1}{a^{t_i}_{n+i}(x)} \ge \Psi(n)\ {\text{for infinitely many}} \ n\in \N \right\}, $$ where $t_i\in\mathbb R_+$ for all ${0\leq i\leq m-1}$, and $\Psi:\N\to\R_{\ge 1}$ is a positive function.
