Jacobi-Type Continued Fractions for the Ordinary Generating Functions of Generalized Factorial Functions
TLDR
The article serves as a semi-comprehensive, detailed survey reference that introduces applications to many established and otherwise well-known combinatorial identities, new cases of generating functions for factorial-function-related product sequences, and other examples of the generalized integer-valued multifactorial, or $\alpha$-factorial, function sequences.

TLDR
Extensions of the Gauss binomial coefficient theorem are presented in terms of Gauss factorials and more generally on partial products obtained when the product (n - 1)n! is divided into M equal parts.

This paper gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a real quadratic field to have classnumber 1. From this, we obtain some corollaries which contain the results in [7], [8], [9] and [10] and…
