Abstract
AbstractConjecturally, the only real algebraic numbers with bounded partial quotients in their regular continued fraction expansion are rationals and quadratic irrationals. We show that the corresponding statement is not true for complex algebraic numbers in a very strong sense, by constructing, for every even degree $d$, algebraic numbers of degree $d$ that have bounded complex partial quotients in their Hurwitz continued fraction expansion. The Hurwitz expansion is the complex generalization of the nearest integer continued fraction for real numbers. In the case of real numbers the boundedness of regular and nearest integer partial quotients is equivalent.
