Self-duality of multidimensional continued fractions

Abstract

F.~Schweiger introduced the fibred system in \cite{Schweiger-MCF}, to unify and generalize many known continued fraction algorithms. An advantage of a fibred system is that it often provides a systematic construction of absolutely continuous invariant density. In this paper, we define and study the self-duality of fibred systems, a strong symmetry of a given system. We show that explicit algebraic self-duality holds in many systems and presents a curious system with "partial" self-duality.
