Are there any known Khinchin reals for which the asymptotics of "average" of their coefficients seems experimentally known?

We can define a Khinchin Real and recall the definition of Khinchin's Constant A real number $r$ is a Khinchin real if given the simple continued fraction expansion of $r$ as $$ r = a_0 + \cfrac{1}{...

Curious sequences associated to continuous fractions

Given a strictly positive initial rational number $x_0$ in $\mathbb Q_>$ we define a sequence $x_0,x_1,\ldots$ recursively by setting $x_{n+1}=x_n+1/S(x_n)$ for $S(x)=a_0+a_1+\ldots+a_k$ where $[...

Connection between Infinite continued fractions, elliptic integrals and AGM

It is known that at $x=1$, the following continued fraction represents $\frac{4}{\pi}$ and can be approximated rapidly using Gauss' Arithmetic Geometric mean. $$C(x) = x + \frac{1^{2}}{2x + \frac{3^{...
