We focus on irrationals $\\alpha$ whose continued fraction coefficients are bounded. Our main goal is to illustrate that when discussing the regularity of $P_n(\\alpha)$, not only the boundedness of the coefficients plays a role; also their size, as well as the structure of the continued fraction expansion of $\\alpha$, is important.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-09-03T07:17:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "26D05", "41A60", "11B39", "11L15", "11K31" ], "keywords": [ "asymptotic behaviour", "sine product", "continued fraction expansion", "coefficients plays", "main goal" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
