Continued Fractions and Diophantine Equations
... a few simple Diophantine equations, then discuss the ideas behind rational approximation and develop the theory of continued fractions. Finally, we apply these results, and others, to solve various Diophantine equations. There is no general procedure for deciding whether a given Diophantine equation ...
