....[57] Three term recurrence relations appeared earlier in the work of Chebyshev and Markov but, of course, Stieltjes was the rst to consider general measures in this context. While [57] does not have the continued fraction expansion given in (1.5) Stieltjes did discuss (1.5) elsewhere. Wall [62] calls (1.5) a J fraction and the fractions used in [57] he calls S fractions. This has been discussed in many places, for example, 24, 56] That every J corresponds to a spectral measure is known in the orthogonal polynomial literature as Favard s theorem (after Favard [15] As noted, it is a ....

....continued fractions for all elementary functions in this framework. In fact, mathematicians have, in the past two centuries, worked out continued fraction expansions for various functions using Pad e approximants, i.e. approximation by rational functions, and studied their convergence properties [121, 4, 78]. Any continued fraction expansion of a real number can be expressed as an infinite composition of lft s of the form f : x ## ax c bx d : R # # R # , 4) where R # is the real line extended with the point at infinity and a, b, c, d # Z.

The case where all b j are zero (together with related normalizations) gives rise to Stieltjes fractions or S fractions; see [40, 59, 88]. Such expansions were called algebraic continued fractions in the 19th century; they are of considerable historical importance since they are at the origin of the theory of orthogonal polynomials [6] Given a series f , a J fraction expansion is obtained by an algorithm of the Euclidean type: ....
