Given a compact metric space (X,d) equipped with a non-atomic, probability measure m and a real, positive decreasing function p we consider a `natural' class of limsup subsets La(p) of X. The classical limsup sets of `well approximable'…

A general form of the Borel-Cantelli Lemma and its connection with the proof of Khintchine's Theorem on Diophantine approximation and the more general Khintchine-Groshev theorem are discussed. The torus geometry in the planar case allows a…

In this paper we establish a general form of the Mass Transference Principle for systems of linear forms conjectured in [1]. We also present a number of applications of this result to problems in Diophantine approximation. These include a…

The use of Hausdorff measures and dimension in the theory of Diophantine approximation dates back to the 1920s with the theorems of Jarnik and Besicovitch regarding well-approximable and badly-approximable points. In this paper we consider…

By introducing a ubiquity property for rectangles, we prove the mass transference principle from rectangles to rectangles, i.e., if a sequence of rectangles forms a ubiquity system (a full measure property), then the limsup set defined by…

In this paper we investigate the metrical theory of Diophantine approximation associated with linear forms that are simultaneously small for infinitely many integer vectors; i.e. forms which are close to the origin. A complete…

We establish a `mixed' version of a fundamental theorem of Khintchine within the field of simultaneous Diophantine approximation. Via the notion of ubiquity we are able to make significant progress towards the completion of the metric…

We consider approximation properties of real points by uniformly distributed sequences. Under some assumptions on the approximation functions, we prove a Khintchine-type $0$-$1$ dichotomy law. We establish a new connection between uniform…

In this paper the metric theory of Diophantine approximation associated with the small linear forms is investigated. Khintchine-Groshev theorems are established along with Hausdorff measure generalization without the monotonic assumption on…

Analogues of the classical theorems of Khintchine, Jarnik and Jarnik-Besicovitch in the metrical theory of Diophantine approximation are established for quaternions by applying results on the measure of general `lim sup' sets.
