On q-deformed Farey sum and a homological
interpretation of q-deformed real quadratic irrational
numbers

Abstract
The left and right q-deformed rational numbers were introduced by Bapat, Becker and
Licata via regular continued fractions, and they gave a homological interpretation for left
and right q-deformed rational numbers. In the present paper, we focus on negative continued
fractions and defined left q-deformed negative continued fractions. We give a formula for
computing the q-deformed Farey sum of the left q-deformed rational numbers based on
it. We use this formula to give a combinatorial proof of the relationship between the left
q-deformed rational number and the Jones polynomial of the corresponding rational knot
which was proved by Bapat, Becker and Licata using a homological technique. Finally, we
combine their work and the q-deformed Farey sum, and give a homological interpretation of
the q-deformed Farey sum. We also give an approach to finding a relationship between real
quadratic irrational numbers and homological algebra.

1 Introduction
The notion of q-deformed rational numbers [15] was introduced by Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko
based on some combinatorial properties of rational numbers. They further extended this notion
to arbitrary real numbers [16] by some number-theoretic properties of irrational numbers. These
works are related to many directions including Jones polynomial of rational knots [9, 11, 18, 15],
Teichm¨uller spaces [5], the Markov-Hurwitz approximation theory [8, 10, 13, 22], the modular
group and the Picard group [12, 21], combinators of posets [14, 19, 20] and triangulated cate-
gory [2].

q-deformed rational number hr

qis exactly q-deformed rational number hr
siqconsidered by
Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko. Following [15] and [2], the right q-deformed rational numbers
can be expressed by the right q-deformed regular or negative continued fraction expansions, and
the left q-deformed rational numbers can be expressed by the left q-deformed regular continued
fraction expansions. These q-deformations of the fractions are rational expressions in the variable
qwith integer coefficients. Such as [15, 12], and so on, it may be more convenient from the
perspective of the negative continued fraction expansion when we consider some properties of left
and right q-deformed rational numbers and their applications. In particular, the formula for the
right q-deformed Farey sum based on the negative continued fraction is more concise [15, Section
2]. This induces us to consider the q-deformed Farey sum of the left q-deformed rational numbers.
In the present paper, we define the left q-deformed negative continued fraction expansion. Then
we give a formula for computing the q-deformed Farey sum of the left q-deformed rational
numbers based on negative continued fraction (see Theorem 3.3).
As an application of the right q-deformed rational numbers, given a rational number r
s, we
can use the numerator and denominator of hr

qto represent the Jones polynomial of the rational
knot to which r
scorresponds [15, Proposition A.1]. On the other hand, Bapat, Becker and Licata
prove that the Jones polynomial for the rational knot corresponding to r

just the numerator of hr

and hr

q. Considering the zigzag algebra on the A2quiver, we can obtain a triangulated category
C2called 2-Calabi–Yau category associated to the A2quiver [2, Section 4]. For spherical objects
on C2, Bapat, Becker and Licata defined two functions, denoted as occqand homq, and they
proved that hr
si
qand hr
si
qcan be expressed in terms of occqand homq, respectively [2, Theorems
3.7 and 3.8]. There are two questions worth considering. Can we give a combinatorial proof of
[2, Theorem A.2] without homology techniques? Can we give a homological interpretation of the
q-deformed irrational numbers defined in [16]? In the present paper, we apply Theorem 3.3 to
give a combinatorial proof of [2, Theorem A.3] without using homology techniques (see Theorem
4.2). Then, we combine the homological interpretation of the left and right q-deformed rational
numbers and the q-deformed Farey sum, and give a homological interpretation of the q-deformed
Farey sum (see Propositions 5.13 and 5.14). We also apply the results in [2, Theorems 4.7 and
4.8] to real quadratic irrational numbers with periodic type (see Theorem 5.15).
This paper is organized into the following sections. In Section 2, we first recall some defini-
tions related to the left and right q-deformed rational numbers, including the (right) q-deformed
Euler continuants, which were introduced by Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko [15]. Similarly, we
define the left q-deformed negative continued fractions and left q-deformed Euler continuants.
We prove that the left q-deformed negative continued fractions and the left q-deformed regular
continued fractions are equal. In Section 3, we give q-deformed Farey sum of left q-rational num-
2
bers based on negative continued fraction, and derive a weighted triangulation and q-deformed
Farey tessellation corresponding to left q-deformed rational numbers. In Section 4, we give a
new proof of [2, Theorem A.2] as an application of q-deformed Farey sum of left q-deformed
rational numbers by induction through the length of the negative continued fraction expansion.
In Section 5, we first combine the results of [2, Theorems 4.7 and 4.8] with the q-deformed
Farey sum to give a homological interpretation of the q-deformed Farey sum. Then we consider
a real quadratic irrational number with periodic type, its q-deformation can also be expressed
in a special form that is related to the q-deformation rational number that approximates it
[12]. Based on the results of these q-deformations, we give the relations between real quadratic
irrational numbers and homological algebra.
2q-deformed continued fractions and q-deformed Euler contin-
uants
In this section, we first briefly review some definitions related to left and right q-deformed
rational numbers (see [2] and [15] for details). We define the left q-deformed negative continued
fraction expansion and introduce the left q-deformed Eulerian continuants. We simply check
that the left q-deformed negative continued fraction expansion is indeed consistent with the left
q-deformed regular continued fraction expansion.
2.1 Left and right q-integers and q-deformed rational numbers
It is well-known that an irreducible fraction r
sQ∪ {∞} has unique regular and negative
continued fraction expansions as follows:
r
s=a1+1
a2+1
...+1
a2m
=c11
c21
...1
ck
with a1Z,aiZ\{0}(i2), and c1Z\{0}(i2) and cjZ\{−1,0,1}(j2). If r
sis
negative, then a1, . . . , a2mand c1, . . . , ckare negative, and if r
sis positive, then a1, . . . , a2mand
c1, . . . , ckare positive. We denote this expansion by [a1, . . . , a2m] and [[c1, . . . , ck]], respectively.
As special cases, the regular and negative continued fraction expansions of 0 and (:= 1
0)
are [1,1], [[1,1]] and empty expansion [ ], [[ ]], respectively.
We consider the following three matrices. σ1:= 11
0 1 , σ2:= 1 0
1 1, S := 01
1 0 .
We know that the modular group PSL2(Z) can be generated by {σ1, σ2}or {σ1, S}. The modular
3
group PSL2(Z) acts on Q∪ {∞} by the fractional linear transformation:
a b
c d(x) = ax +b
cx +b,
where a b
c dPSL2(Z), xQ∪ {∞}. Then a rational number r
s= [a1, . . . , a2m] =
[[c1, . . . , ck]] can be expressed by the following formulas:
r
s=σa1
1σa2
2σa3
1σa4
2···σa2m1
1σa2m
2(),(2.1)
r
s=σc1
1Sσc2
1S···σck
1S().(2.2)
Definition 2.1 ([2]).Let qbe a formal parameter. For a rational number r
s= [a1, . . . , a2m],
we denote by PSL2,q(Z) the subgroup of group GL2(Z[q±1]) generated by the following two
elements:
σ1,q =q1q1
0 1 , σ2,q =1 0
1q1.
Then the right q-deformed rational number is
hr
si
q=σa1
1,q σa2
2,qσa3
1,q σa4
2,q ···σa2m1
1,q σa2m
1,q (),
and the left q-deformed rational number is
hr
si
q=σa1
1,q σa2
2,qσa3
1,q σa4
2,q ···σa2m1
1,q σa2m
1,q 1
1q.
2.2 Left q-deformed negative continued fractions
Definition 2.2 ([2]).Let qbe a formal parameter. We consider an integer n, the following two
rational forms [n]
qand [n]
qin qare called the right q-integer of nand the left q-integer of n,
respectively.
[n]
q:= 1qn
1q,[n]
q:= 1qn1+qnqn+1
1q.
Remark 2.3. Suppose that m, n Z. It can be easy to check that the right q-integers and left
q-integers satisfy the following properties.
(i) [n]
q= [n]
q+qn1qn;
(ii) [m+n]
q= [m]
q+qm[n]
q= [n]
q+qn[m]
q= [n+n]

[m+n]
q= [m]

q= [n]

Suppose that r
s= [a1, . . . , a2m] = [[c1, . . . , ck]]. From [15] and [2], the right q-deformed
rational number hr

qhas both the following q-deformed positive and negative continued fraction
expansions.
