Let $f: M \to M$ be a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with conformality on unstable manifolds. Consider a set of points with nondense forward orbit: $E(f, y) := \{ z\in M: y\notin \overline{\{f^k(z), k \in \mathbb{N}\}}\}$ for some $y…

We study Manneville-Pomeau maps on the unit interval and prove that the set of points whose forward orbits miss an interval with left endpoint 0 is strong winning for Schmidt's game. Strong winning sets are dense, have full Hausdorff…

Let $f: M \to M$ be a $C^{1+\theta}$-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism. We introduce a type of modified Schmidt games which is induced by $f$ and played on any unstable manifold. Utilizing it we generalize some results of \cite{Wu} as…

In this paper, we manage to apply Schmidt games to certain non-algebraic dynamical systems. More precisely, we show that the set of points with non-dense forward orbit under a $C^2$-Anosov diffeomorphism with conformality on unstable…

Winning sets of Schmidt's game enjoy a remarkable rigidity. Therefore, this game (and modifications of it) have been applied to many examples of complete metric spaces (X, d) to show that the set of "badly approximable points", with respect…

We consider Schmidt's game on the space of compact subsets of a given metric space equipped with the Hausdorff metric, and the space of continuous functions equipped with the supremum norm. We are interested in determining the generic…

The set of badly approximable numbers, Bad, is known to be winning for Schmidt's game and hence has full Hausdorff dimension. It is also known that the set of inhomogeneously badly approximable numbers has full dimension. We prove that the…

We construct (\alpha ,\beta) and \alpha -winning sets in the sense of Schmidt's game, played on the support of certain measures (very friendly and awfully friendly measures) and show how to derive the Hausdorff dimension for some. In…

In \cite{SchmidtGames}, W. Schmidt proved that the set of non-normal numbers in base $b$ is a {\it winning set}. We generalize this result by proving that many sets of non-normal numbers with respect to the Cantor series expansion are…

We show that the set of numbers with bounded L\"uroth expansions (or bounded L\"uroth series) is winning and strong winning. From either winning property, it immediately follows that the set is dense, has full Hausdorff dimension, and…

We show that the sets of weighted badly approximable vectors in $\Bbb R^n$ are winning sets of certain games, which are modifications of $(\alpha,\beta)$-games introduced by W. Schmidt in 1966. The latter winning property is stable with…

We prove that the set of bounded geodesics in Teichmuller space are a winning set for Schmidt's game. This is a notion of largeness in a metric space that can apply to measure 0 and meager sets. We prove analogous closely related results on…

Given $b > 1$ and $y \in \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$, we consider the set of $x\in \mathbb{R}$ such that $y$ is not a limit point of the sequence $\{b^n x \bmod 1: n\in\mathbb{N}\}$. Such sets are known to have full Hausdorff dimension, and in…

Schmidt games and the Cantor winning property give alternative notions of largeness, similar to the more standard notions of measure and category. Being intuitive, flexible, and applicable to recent research made them an active object of…

We present a new variant of the potential game and show that certain compact subsets of $\R^n$, including a large class of self-affine sets, are winning in our game. We prove that sets with sufficiently strong winning conditions are…

Schmidt's game is generally used to deduce qualitative information about the Hausdorff dimensions of fractal sets and their intersections. However, one can also ask about quantitative versions of the properties of winning sets. In this…

Given an integer nonsingular $n\times n$ matrix $M$ and a point $y \in \mathbb{R}^n/\mathbb{Z}^n$, consider the set $\tilde E(M,y)$ of vectors $x\in \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $y$ is not a limit point of the sequence $\{M^k x \mod…

Given a point and an expanding map on the unit interval, we consider the set of points for which the forward orbit under this map is bounded away from the given point. For maps like multiplication by an integer modulo 1, such sets have full…

We prove that the countable intersection of $C^1$-diffeomorphic images of certain Diophantine sets has full Hausdorff dimension. For example, we show this for the set of badly approximable vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$, improving earlier…

Let $G$ be a Lie group, $\Gamma\subset G$ a discrete subgroup, $X=G/\Gamma$, and $f$ an affine map from $X$ to itself. We give conditions on a submanifold $Z$ of $X$ guaranteeing that the set of points $x\in X$ with $f$-trajectories…
