  It was shown recently that the anomalous scaling of simultaneous correlation
functions in turbulence is intimately related to the breaking of temporal scale
invariance, which is equivalent to the appearance of infinitely many times
scales in the time dependence of time-correlation functions. In this paper we
derive a continued fraction representation of turbulent time correlation
functions which is exact and in which the multiplicity of time scales is
explicit. We demonstrate that this form yields precisely the same scaling laws
for time derivatives and time integrals as the "multi-fractal" representation
that was used before. Truncating the continued fraction representation yields
the "best" estimates of time correlation functions if the given information is
limited to the scaling exponents of the simultaneous correlation functions up
to a certain, finite order. It is worth noting that the derivation of a
continued fraction representation obtained here for an operator which is not
Hermitian or anti-Hermitian may be of independent interest.
