Convergence results for simultaneous and multiplicative Diophantine approximation on planar curves

Number Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Let C\mathcal{C} be a non-degenerate planar curve. We show that the curve is of Khintchine-type for convergence in the case of simultaneous approximation with two independent approximation functions; that is if a certain sum converges then the set of all points (x,y)(x,y) on the curve which satisfy simultaneously the inequalities qx<ψ1(q)\| q x \| < \psi_1(q) and qy<ψ2(q)\| qy \| < \psi_2(q) infinitely often has induced measure 0. This completes the metric theory for the Lebesgue case. Further, for the cae of multiplicative approximation qxqy<ψ(q)\| qx \| \| q y \| < \psi(q), we establish a Hausdorff measure convergence result for the same class of curves, the first such result for a general class of manifolds in this particular setup.
