Thue–Morse continued-fraction algebraicity conjecture

About 6 years old · traced to

Let a,ba,b be two distinct elements of F2[z]\F2\mathbb{F}_2[z]\backslash\mathbb{F}_2, and let u(z)\mathbf{u}(z) be the (a,b)(a,b)-Thue–Morse sequence. Thue–Morse continued-fraction algebraicity conjecture. The continued fraction CF⁡(u(z))\operatorname{CF}(\mathbf{u}(z)) is algebraic of degree 44 over F2(z)\mathbb{F}_2(z). This conjecture concerns the algebraicity and exact degree of continued fractions whose partial quotients are generated by a Thue–Morse sequence over F2[z]\mathbb{F}_2[z]; its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
