“…Numerous studies show that branched continued fraction expansions provide a useful means for representing and extending of special functions, including generalized hypergeometric functions [3,33], Appell's hypergeometric functions [11,20,25], Horn's hypergeometric functions [2,4,5,6,15], Lauricella-Saran's hypergeometric functions [1,12,24], and also some other functions [10,17,18,29]. To render branched continued fractions more useful in computational, one needs to know more about their numerical stability, which is the main concern of this paper.…”
