We prove a generalization of W.M. Schmidt's theorem related to the Diophantine approximations for a linear form of the type $\alpha_1x_1+\alpha_2x_2 +y$ with {\it positive} integers $x_1,x_2$.
The Duffin-Schaeffer theorem is a well-known result from metric number theory, which generalises Khinchin's theorem from monotonic functions to a wider class of approximating functions. In recent years, there has been some interest in…
We answer a question raised by Alam and Ghosh concerning an error term for a spiralling result in Diophantine approximation by rationals in a number field. The proof relies on a generalisation of Rogers' Mean Value Theorem to algebraic…
Let (X,d) be a metric space and (\Omega, d) a compact subspace of X which supports a non-atomic finite measure m. We consider `natural' classes of badly approximable subsets of \Omega. Loosely speaking, these consist of points in \Omega…
According to Skolem's conjecture, if an exponential Diophantine equation is not solvable, then it is not solvable modulo an appropriately chosen modulus. Besides several concrete equations, the conjecture has only been proved for rather…
We study the Diophantine transference principle over function fields. By adapting the approach of Beresnevich and Velani to the function field set-up, we extend many results from homogeneous Diophantine approximation to the realm of…
We show that the complement of the ring of integers in a number field K is Diophantine. This means the set of ring of integers in K can be written as {t in K | for all x_1, ..., x_N in K, f(t,x_1, ..., x_N) is not 0}. We will use global…
Gallagher's theorem is a sharpening and extension of the Littlewood conjecture that holds for almost all tuples of real numbers. We provide a fibre refinement, solving a problem posed by Beresnevich, Haynes and Velani in 2015. Hitherto,…
We study metric Diophantine approximation in local fields of positive characteristic. Specifically, we study the problem of improving Dirichlet's theorem in Diophantine approximation and prove very general results in this context.
We show that rings of $S$-integers of a global function field $K$ of odd characteristic are first-order universally definable in $K$. This extends work of Koenigsmann and Park who showed the same for $\mathbb{Z}$ in $\mathbb{Q}$ and the…
In two dimensions, Gallagher's theorem is a strengthening of the Littlewood conjecture that holds for almost all pairs of real numbers. We prove an inhomogeneous fibre version of Gallagher's theorem, sharpening and making unconditional a…
We use the theory of arithmetic quotients of the Bruhat-Tits tree developed by Serre and others to obtain Dirichlet-style theorems for Diophantine approximation on global function fields. This approach allows us to find sharp values for the…
We prove over fields of power series the analogues of several Diophantine approximation results obtained over the field of real numbers. In particular we establish the power series analogue of Kronecker's theorem for matrices, together with…
We prove analogues of some classical results from Diophantine approximation and metric number theory (namely Dirichlet's theorem and the Duffin--Schaeffer theorem) in the setting of diagonal Diophantine approximation, i.e. approximating…
In this paper using the notion of an ideal I on a directed set, we extend the notion of convergence of nets of partial maps to the notions of I-convergence ( or filter convergence) of nets of partial maps and I*- convergence of nets of…
We prove Dirichlet's theorem for polynomial rings: Let F be a pseudo algebraically closed field. Then for all relatively prime polynomials a(X), b(X)\in F[X] and for every sufficiently large positive integer n there exist infinitely many…
Here it is shown that standard set theory can be interpreted in a theory about order. The ordering here is about non-extensional flat classes, i.e. classes that are not elements of classes. So, stipulating a nearly well order over all those…
Based on BONGs theory, we prove the norm principle for integral and relative integral spinor norms of quadratic forms over general dyadic local fields, respectively. By virtue of these results, we further establish the arithmetic version of…
Large fields (also called ample, anti-mordellic) generalize many fields of classical interest, such as algebraically closed fields, real-closed fields, and $p$-adic fields. In this note we answer a question of Pop by generalizing a result…
Hecke studies the distribution of fractional parts of quadratic irrationals with Fourier expansion of Dirichlet series. This method is generalized by Behnke and Ash-Friedberg, to study the distribution of the number of totally positive…
