设[a1(x),a2(x),. . .]是x ∈ [0,1)的连分式展开。写Tn(x)=max{ak(x):1 ≤ k ≤ n}。Philipp [6]证明了$$T(x)=:\liminf\limits_{n\to \infty}{ T_n(x)\log\log n\over {n}}=\frac{1}{\log 2}\ a.e.$$ Okano [5]证明了对任意k ≥ 2,存在x ∈ [0,1)使得T(x)=1/logk.本文证明了对任意α ≥ 0,集合E(\alpha)=\left\{x\in [0,1),\lim\limits_{n\to \infty}{T_n(x)\log\log n\over {n}}=\alpha\right\}$$的Hausdorff维数为1.
Abstract Let [a1(x), a2(x), . . .] be the continued fraction expansion of x ∈ [0,1). Write Tn(x)=max{ak(x):1 ≤ k ≤ n}. Philipp [6] proved that $$T(x)=:\liminf\limits_{n\to \infty}{ T_n(x)\log\log n\over {n}}=\frac{1}{\log 2}\ \ \ a.e..$$ Okano [5] showed that for any k ≥ 2, there exists x ∈ [0, 1) such that T(x)=1/log k. In this paper we show that, for any α ≥ 0, the set $$E(\alpha)=\left\{x\in [0,1), \lim\limits_{n\to \infty}{T_n(x)\log\log n\over {n}}=\alpha\right\}$$ is of Hausdorff dimension 1.
