In complex analysis, a branch of mathematics, a generalized continued fraction is a generalization of regular continued fractions in canonical form, in which the partial numerators and partial denominators can assume arbitrary complex values. A generalized continued fraction is an expression of the form where the an (n > 0) are the partial numerators, the bn are the partial denominators, and the leading term b0 is called the integer part of the continued fraction. The successive convergents of the continued fraction are formed by applying the fundamental recurrence formulas: where An is the numerator and Bn is the denominator, called continuants, of the nth convergent. They are given by the recursion with initial values If the sequence of convergents {xn} approaches a limit the continued fraction is convergent and has a definite value. If the sequence of convergents never approaches a limit the continued fraction is divergent. It may diverge by oscillation (for example, the odd and even convergents may approach two different limits), or it may produce an infinite number of zero denominators Bn. (Wikipedia).

The first part develops the fraction from a simple equation or statement with a single unknown variable and demonstrates the recursive, iterative procedure. Possibly as simple and straightforward as it is possible for me to do. The second part still confuses me and amounts to no mare than

Laura Capuano: An effective criterion for periodicity of p-adic continued fractions
Abstract: It goes back to Lagrange that a real quadratic irrational has always a periodic continued fraction. Starting from decades ago, several authors proposed different definitions of a p-adic continued fraction, and the definition depends on the chosen system of residues mod p. It turn

Abstract: Based on work done by Morse and Hedlund (1940) it was observed by Arnoux and Rauzy (1991) that the classical continued fraction algorithm provides a surprising link between arithmetic and diophantine properties of an irrational number αα, the rotation by αα on the torus 𝕋=ℝ/ℤT=R/
