Partial quotients and representation of rational numbers
  It is shown that there is an absolute constant $C$ such that any rational $\frac bq\in]0, 1[, (b, q)=1$, admits a representation as a finite sum $\frac bq=\sum_\alpha\frac {b_\alpha}{q_\alpha}$ where $\sum_\alpha\sum_ia_i(\frac {b_\alpha}{q_\alpha})<C\log q$ and $\{a_i(x)\}$ denotes the sequence of partial quotients of $x$.
