On consecutive 1's in continued fractions expansions of square roots of prime numbers

In this note, we study the problem of existence of sequences of consecutive 1's in the periodic part of the continued fractions expansions of square roots of primes. We prove unconditionally that, for a given $N\gg 1$, there are at least $N\log^{-3/2}N$ prime numbers $p\leq N$ such that the continued fraction expansion of $\sqrt{p}$ contains three consecutive 1's on the beginning of the periodic part. We also present results of our computations related to the considered problem and some related problems, formulate several open questions and conjectures and get some results under the assumption of Hypothesis H of Schinzel.
