In this paper we introduce the notion of almost flatness for (stably) relative bundles on a pair of topological spaces and investigate basic properties of it. First, we show that almost flatness of topological and smooth sense are…
We show that badly approximable vectors are exactly those that cannot, for any inhomogeneous parameter, be inhomogeneously approximated at every monotone divergent rate. This implies in particular that Kurzweil's Theorem cannot be…
We study the dynamics of countable groups on their respective spaces of quasimorphisms. For cohomologically non-trivial quasimorphisms we show that there are no invariant measures and classify stationary measures. Within the equivalence…
In metric Diophantine approximation, one frequently encounters the problem of showing that a limsup set has positive or full measure. Often it is a set of points in $m$-dimensional Euclidean space, or a set of $n$-by-$m$ systems of linear…
We investigate a slight weakening of the classical property of strong approximation, which we call almost strong approximation, for connected reductive algebraic groups over global fields with respect to special sets of valuations. While…
Approximate lattices are aperiodic generalisations of lattices of locally compact groups that were first studied in seminal work of Yves Meyer. They are defined as those uniformly discrete approximate subgroups (symmetric subsets stable…
We show that for every countable group, any sequence of approximate homomorphisms with values in permutations can be realized as the restriction of a sofic approximation of an orbit equivalence relation. Moreover, this orbit equivalence…
We give new classes of examples of orbits of the diagonal group in the space of unit volume lattices in R^d for d > 2 with nice (homogeneous) orbit closures, as well as examples of orbits with explicitly computable but irregular orbit…
Quasi-lattices are introduced in terms of 'join' and 'meet' operations. It is observed that quasi-lattices become lattices when these operations are associative and when these operations satisfy 'modularity' conditions. A fundamental…
This paper is devoted to the study of a problem of Cassels in multiplicative Diophantine approximation which involves minimising values of a product of affine linear forms computed at integral points. It was previously known that values of…
We consider the energy norm arising from elliptic problems with discontinuous piecewise constant diffusion. We prove that under the quasi-monotonicity property on the diffusion coefficient, the best approximation error with continuous…
We prove two results concerning an Ulam-type stability problem for homomorphisms between lattices. One of them involves estimates by quite general error functions; the other deals with approximate (join) homomorphisms in terms of certain…
Let $\Gamma$ be the multiplicative semigroup of all $n\times n$ matrices with integral entries and positive determinant. Let $1\leq p \leq n-1$ and $V=\R^n\oplus \cdots \oplus \R^n$ ($p$ copies). We consider the componentwise action of…
We consider the problem of Diophantine approximation on semisimple algebraic groups by rational points with restricted numerators and denominators and establish a quantitative approximation result for all real points in the group by…
We show that every quasi-compact and quasi-separated algebraic stack can be approximated by a noetherian algebraic stack. We give several applications such as eliminating noetherian hypotheses in the theory of good moduli spaces.
In this paper we discuss some properties of completely irrational subspaces. We prove that there exist completely irrational subspaces that are badly approximable and, moreover, sets of such subspaces are winning in different senses. We get…
Given for instance a finite volume negatively curved Riemannian manifold $M$, we give a precise relation between the logarithmic growth rates of the excursions into cusps neighborhoods of the strong unstable leaves of negatively recurrent…
Let X be a compact (resp. compact and nonsingular) real algebraic variety and let Y be a homogeneous space for some linear real algebraic group. We prove that a continuous (resp. C^infinity) map f:X-->Y can be approximated by regular maps…
Approximate lattices of locally compact groups were first studied in a seminal monograph of Yves Meyer and were subsequently used in the theory of aperiodic order to model objects such as Pisot numbers, quasi-cristals or aperiodic tilings.…
Recently, Ghosh \& Haynes \cite{HG} proved a Khintchine-type result for the problem of Diophantine approximation in certain projective spaces. In this note we complement their result by observing that a Jarn\'{\i}k-type result also holds…
