Two Ford circles #92;textstyle#92;mathcalC(a,b) and #92;textstyle#92;mathcalC(c,d) are tangent whenever #92;textstylead-bc#61;#92;pm 1. This is the case for Ford circles related to consecutive Farey fractions in a sequence #92;textstyleF#95;N.
ref: 2008, Jan Manschot, Partition Functions for Supersymmetric Black Holes, Amsterdam University Press, page 78:
text: Ford circles are a collection of horocycles in #92;mathbbH used by Ford to study continued fractions in papers such as [2, 3].[…]Two Ford circles intersect in at most a single point, and the interiors of the two circles are disjoint. In fact, one can check that the Ford circles C#95;#123;a#47;b#125; and C#95;#123;c#47;d#125; are tangent if and only if #92;vertad-bc#92;vert#61;1.
