Semi-regular continued fractions and an exact formula for the moments of the Minkowski question mark function

Abstract

This paper continues investigations on the integral transforms of the Minkowski question mark function. In this work we finally establish the long-sought formula for the moments, which does not explicitly involve regular continued fractions, though it has a hidden nice interpretation in terms of semi-regular continued fractions. The proof is self-contained and does not rely on previous results by the author.Comment: 8 page
