Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Positive integers k such that the continued fraction expansion sqrt(k) = c(1) + c(1)/(c(2) + c(2)/(c(3) + c(3)/....)) is aperiodic.
%C For more details about this type of expansions, see A233582.
%C The cases with known periodic expansions, listed in A233592, all become periodic after just two leading terms. In contrast, the Blazys's expansion of sqrt(a(k)) for every member a(k) of this list remains aperiodic up to at least 1000 terms. It is therefore conjectured, though not proved, that these expansions are indeed aperiodic.

%e Blazys's expansion of sqrt(7), A233587, is {2, 3, 30, 34, 111, ...}. Its first 1000 terms are all distinct. Hence, 7 is a term of this sequence.
