Lambert's Continued Fraction$$\label1\tag1
\log \left(\cfrac{z+1}{1-z}\right)=\cfrac{2 z}{1-\cfrac{z^2}{3-\cfrac{4 z^2}{5-\cfrac{9 z^2}{7-\cfrac{16 z^2}{9-\cfrac{25 z^2}{11-\cfrac{36 z^2}{13-\ldots }}}}}}}
$$
对于$$
1+\frac12\log \left(\frac{z+1}{1-z}\right)=1 + z + \frac13z^3 + \frac15z^5 + \frac17z^7 + \frac19z^9 + \frac1{11}z^{11} + O(z^{13})
$$有$$(a_0,a_1,a_2,\dots)=\left(1,1,0,\frac13,0,\frac15,\dots\right)$$代入\eqref{2}变成
$$\left\{\begin{array}{l}b_{0}=1 \\ 1=-b_{1} \\0=b_{1}\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right) \\ \frac13=-b_{1}\left[b_{2} b_{3}+\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right)^{2}\right] \\ 0=b_{1}\left[b_{2} b_{3}\left(b_{3}+b_{4}\right)+2\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right) b_{2} b_{3}+\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right)^{3}\right]\end{array}\right.$$解得\begin{array}{l}b_{0}=1 \\ b_{1}=-1 \\b_2=1 \\ b_{3}=\frac13\\ b_4=-\frac13\end{array}
得到了和\eqref{1}不同的连分式$$1+\frac12\log \left(\frac{z+1}{1-z}\right)=\cfrac{1}{1+\cfrac{-z}{1+\cfrac{z}{1+\cfrac{\frac13 z}{1+\cfrac{-\frac13z}{\ddots}}}}}$$
那么,如何得到\eqref{1}呢?
8.4.2 Continued Fraction Representation of Functions
If a function is represented by a power series about the origin
$$f(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_{n} x^{n}$$
we can also write it in a continued-fraction form. The standard approach here is to write
$$f(x)=\frac{b_{0}}{1+} \frac{b_{1} x}{1+} \frac{b_{2} x}{1+} \frac{b_{3} x}{1+} \frac{b_{4} x}{1+\ldots}$$
Evidently, there is a one-to-one correspondance between the Taylor-series coefficients $\{a_n\}$ and the continued-fraction coefficients $\{b_n\}$, which may be determined by expanding the continued fraction in a power series for small $x$. The theory of such a representation is discussed also in Advanced mathematical methods for scientists and engineers (Carl M. Bender, Steven A. Orszag).
Let us consider a function with the property $f (0) = 1$; this is merely a convenient choice of normalization. Then the relation between the continued fraction coefficients and the series coefficients is easily found to be
$$\tag2\label2\begin{array}{l}a_{0}=b_{0}=1 \\ a_{1}=-b_{1} \\ a_{2}=b_{1}\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right) \\ a_{3}=-b_{1}\left[b_{2} b_{3}+\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right)^{2}\right] \\ a_{4}=b_{1}\left[b_{2} b_{3}\left(b_{3}+b_{4}\right)+2\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right) b_{2} b_{3}+\left(b_{1}+b_{2}\right)^{3}\right]\end{array}$$
and so on. This constitutes a nonlinear mapping from the set of numbers $\{b_n\}$ to the set $\{a_n\}$ or vice versa.
This mapping seems to be quite remarkable in that the sequence of $b_n$s is typically much simpler than the sequence of $a_n$s. |
