On the distribution of the leading digit of \(a^n\): a study via \(\chi^2\) statistics
The authors investigate the \(\chi^2\) statistic of the leading digits of \(a^n\), where \(\log_{10} a\) has a single isolated large partial quotient in its continued fraction expansion. A qualitative discussion of the graphs of \(\chi^2\) statistics is also included.
