Abstract

Continued fractions have a long history in number theory, especially in the area of Diophantine approximation. The aim of this expository paper is to survey the main results on the theory of p-adic continued fractions, i.e., continued fractions defined over the field of p-adic numbers Qp, which in the last years has recorded a considerable increase of interest and research activity. We start from the very first definitions up to the most recent developments and open problems.
