Continued fractions over non-Euclidean imaginary quadratic rings

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

We propose and study a generalized continued fraction algorithm that can be executed in an arbitrary imaginary quadratic field, the novelty being a non-restriction to the five Euclidean cases. Many hallmark properties of classical continued fractions are shown to be retained, including exponential convergence, best-of-the-second-kind approximation quality (up to a constant), periodicity of quadratic irrational expansions, and polynomial time complexity.
