$\delta$-Badly approximable numbers and ubiquitously losing sets
Abstract
We consider a natural filtration for on the set of badly approximable numbers to complement the filtration of the well approximable numbers by the -well approximable numbers. We show that the set is a -winning set and give a lower bound on its Hausdorff dimension. We introduce the notion of - to the theory of Schmidt games, give an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of an -ubiquitously losing set that is strictly less than full Hausdorff dimension, show that is a -ubiquitously losing set, and give an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of that is strictly less than one. Combined with a finite intersection property and a bilipschitz transfer property, we obtain results for finite intersections of translates of .
