Khinchin's constant
In number theory, Aleksandr Yakovlevich Khinchin proved that for almost all real numbers x, the infinitely many denominators ai of the continued fraction expansion of x have an astonishing property: their geometric mean is a constant, known as Khinchin's constant, which is independent of the value of x.
