Abstract

Motivated by recent developments in the metrical theory of continued fractions for real numbers concerning the growth of consecutive partial quotients, we consider its analogue over the field of formal Laurent series. Let An(x) be the nth partial quotient of the continued fraction expansion of x in the field of formal Laurent series. We consider the sets of x such that deg⁡An+1(x)+⋯+deg⁡An+k(x)≥Φ(n) holds for infinitely many n and for all n respectively, where k≥1 is an integer and Φ(n) is a positive function defined on N. We determine the size of these sets in terms of Haar measure and Hausdorff dimension.
