Some more long continued fractions, I

Some more long continued fractions, I

In this paper we show how to construct several infinite families of polynomials $D(\bar{x},k)$, such that $\sqrt{D(\bar{x},k)}$ has a regular continued fraction expansion with arbitrarily long period, the length of this period being controlled by the positive integer parameter $k$. We also describe how to quickly compute the fundamental units …
