Abstract
For an irrational number we consider its irrationality measure function It is known for all irrational numbers and satisfying , there exist arbitrary large values of with \begin{equation*} | \psi_\alpha(t) - \psi_\beta(t) | \geqslant \left( \sqrt{\tau} - 1\right) \cdot \min( \psi_\alpha(t), \psi_\beta(t) ), \end{equation*} where and this result is optimal for certain numbers equivalent to . Here we prove that for all irrational numbers and , satisfying , such that at least one of them is not equivalent to , there exist arbitrary large values of with Moreover, we show that the constant on the right-hand side is optimal.
