Conjecture on nice Browkin continued fractions of every length

Let pp be a prime. A nice Browkin continued fraction is the special class of Browkin continued fractions introduced by Capuano, Murru, and Terracini. The nice-continued-fraction conjecture. For every integer t1t\geq 1, there exists a nice Browkin continued fraction of length tt, except when t=1t=1 and p=3p=3. The conjecture concerns the existence of the finite starting sequences used to construct infinite families of quadratic irrationals with periodic Browkin expansions; the source leaves it as an open problem.
