This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…

For two properly intersecting effective cycles in projective space X,Y, and their intersection product Z, the metric Bezout Theorem relates the degrees, heights of X,Y, and Z, as well as their distances and algebraic distances to a given…

We develop the metric theory of Diophantine approximation on homogeneous varieties of semisimple algebraic groups and prove results analogous to the classical Khinchin and Jarnik theorems. In full generality our results establish…

Point counting estimates are a key stepping stone to various results in metric Diophantine approximation. In this paper we use the quantitative non-divergence estimates originally developed by Kleinbock and Margulis to improve lower bounds…

Wirsing's theorem on approximating algebraic numbers by algebraic numbers of bounded degree is a generalization of Roth's theorem in Diophantine approximation. We study variations of Wirsing's theorem where the inequality in the theorem is…

Building on work of Davenport and Schmidt, we mainly prove two results. The first one is a version of Gel'fond's transcendence criterion which provides a sufficient condition for a complex or $p$-adic number $\xi$ to be algebraic in terms…

Let $\Theta = (\theta_1,\theta_2,\theta_3)\in \mathbb{R}^3$. Suppose that $1,\theta_1,\theta_2,\theta_3$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Z}$. For Diophantine exponents $$ \alpha(\Theta) = \sup \{\gamma >0:\,\,\, \limsup_{t\to…

We consider an algebraic variety and its foliation, both defined over a number field. We prove upper bounds for the geometric complexity of the intersection between a leaf of the foliation and a subvariety of complementary dimension (also…

Because of its ineffectiveness, the usual arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel formula is not applicable in the context of Diophantine Approximation. In order to overcome this difficulty, the present paper presents explicit estimates for arithmetic…

Let $\Theta=(\alpha,\beta)$ be a point in $\bR^2$, with $1,\alpha,\beta$ linearly independent over $\bQ$. We attach to $\Theta$ a quadruple $\Omega(\Theta)$ of exponents which measure the quality of approximation to $\Theta$ both by…

We establish new uniform height inequalities for rational points on higher-dimensional varieties, extending the classical Roth-Schmidt-Subspace paradigm to the Arakelov-theoretic setting. Our main result provides sharp bounds for heights…

We consider the set of points in projective $n$-space that generate an extension of degree $e$ over given number field $k$, and deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of such points of absolute height at most $X$, as $X$ tends to…

Following Schmidt, Thurnheer and Bugeaud-Kristensen, we study how Dirichlet's theorem on linear forms needs to be modified when one requires that the vectors of coefficients of the linear forms make a bounded acute angle with respect to 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…

Finding the point in an algebraic variety that is closest to a given point is an optimization problem with many applications. We study the case when the variety is a Fermat hypersurface. Our formula for its Euclidean distance degree is a…
