Conversion from binomial expansion to
continued fraction
We all know generalized binomial theorem
for ![]()
or
for ![]()
When y=1 and we set r=y
for ![]()
That is
![]()
Arranging the terms, we can regard it as
![]()
Now we apply one of the formulas from series to continued fraction. The formula is
(regular expression)
in special form
as in 0218. We set i={1,yx,(y-1)x,(y-2)x,(y-3)x,. . .} and j={1,1,2,3,4,. . .}.
Then we have
![]()
Thus
![]()
or
in
special form
Recall
in 0122. Now a1=x*y and b1=1.
