This chapter details Umberto Zannier's minicourse on hyperelliptic continued fractions and generalized Jacobians. It begins by presenting the Pell equation, which was studied by Indian, and later by Arabic and Greek, mathematicians. The chapter then addresses two questions about continued fractions of algebraic functions. The first concerns the behavior of the solvability of the polynomial Pell equation for families of polynomials. It must be noted that these questions are related to problems of unlikely intersections in families of Jacobians of hyperelliptic curves (or generalized Jacobians). The chapter also reviews several classical definitions and results related to the continued fraction expansion of real numbers and illustrates them by examples.

The Coleman integral is a $p$-adic line integral that encapsulates various quantities of number theoretic interest. Building on the work of Harrison [J. Symbolic Comput. 47 (2012) no. 1, 89–101], we extend the Coleman integration algorithms in Balakrishnan et al. [Algorithmic number theory, Lecture Notes in Computer Science 6197 (Springer, 2010) 16–31] and Balakrishnan [ANTS-X: Proceedings of the Tenth Algorithmic Number Theory Symposium, Open Book Series 1 (Mathematical Sciences Publishers, 2013) 41–61] to even-degree models of hyperelliptic curves. We illustrate our methods with numerical examples computed in Sage.

We investigate the efficiency of several types of continued fraction expansions of a number in the unit interval using a generalization of Lochs theorem from 1964. Thus, we aim to compare the efficiency by describing the rate at which the digits of one number-theoretic expansion determine those of another. We study Chan’s continued fractions, θ-expansions, N-continued fractions, and Rényi-type continued fractions. A central role in fulfilling our goal is played by the entropy of the absolutely continuous invariant probability measures of the associated dynamical systems.

The Hurwitz complex continued fraction is a generalization of the nearest integer continued fraction. In this paper, we prove various results concerning extremes of the modulus of Hurwitz complex continued fraction digits. This includes a Poisson law and an extreme value law. The results are based on cusp estimates of the invariant measure about which information is still limited. In the process, we obtained several results concerning the extremes of nearest integer continued fractions as well.
