For a real number $0<\lambda<2$, we introduce a transformation $T_\lambda$ naturally associated to expansion in $\lambda$-continued fraction, for which we also give a geometrical interpretation. The symbolic coding of the orbits of $T_\lambda$ provides an algorithm to expand any positive real number in $\lambda$-continued fraction. We prove the conjugacy between $T_\lambda$ and some $\beta$-shift, $\beta>1$. Some properties of the map $\lambda\mapsto\beta(\lambda)$ are established: It is increasing and continuous from $]0, 2[$ onto $]1,\infty[$ but non-analytic. |
