A note on the Lyapunov exponent in continued fraction expansions
Let T:[0,1) \to [0,1) be the Gauss transformation. For any irrational x \in [0,1), the Lyapunov exponent \alpha(x) of x is defined as \alpha(x)=\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{n} \log (T^n)'(x) . By Birkoff Average Theorem, one knows that \alpha(x) exists almost surely. However, in this paper, we will see that the non-typical set \{x\in …
