Abstract:
Let $\mathbb{Q}$ be a field of rational numbers, let $\mathbb{Q}(x)$ be the field of rational functions of one variable, and let $ f\in \mathbb{Q}[x]$ be a squarefree polynomial of odd degree which is equal to $2g+1, g>0$. Suppose that for a polynomial $h$ of degree $1$ the discrete valuation $\nu_{h} $ which is uniquely defined on $\mathbb{Q}(x)$ has two nonequivalent extensions to the field $L = \mathbb{Q}(x)(\sqrt{f})$ and $\nu'_{h}$ is one of these extensions. We put $S =\{\nu'_{h},\nu_{\infty}\}$, where $\nu_{\infty}$ is an infinite valuation of the field $L$.
In the paper [4] V. P. Platonov and M. M. Petrunin (see also [2]) obtained that a $S$-unit in $L$ exists if and only if the element $\frac{\sqrt{f}}{h^{g+1}}$ expands into the periodic infinite continuous functional fraction.
In this paper we study continuous periodic fractions connected with this expansion.
For some small values of the length of period and quasiperiod we obtained estimates for the degrees of corresponding fundamental $S$-units and some necessary conditions with which the elements of
these fractions have to satisfy.
In the proof we use the results obtained by V. P. Platonov and M. M. Petrunin in the paper [4].
