Let $n \ge 2$ be an integer and $\xi$ a transcendental real number. We establish several new relations between the values at $\xi$ of the exponents of Diophantine approximation $w_n, w_{n}^{\ast}, \hat{w}_{n}$, and $\hat{w}_{n}^{\ast}$.…

A matrix is apportionable if it is similar to a matrix whose entries have equal moduli. This paper shows that all nilpotent matrices and all matrices with rank at most half their order are apportionable. General results are established and…

We consider approximation of vectors $\mathbf{z}\in F\otimes\mathbb{R}\cong\mathbb{R}^r\times\mathbb{C}^s$ by elements of a number field $F$ and construct examples of badly approximable vectors. These examples come from compact subspaces of…

We determine the generic multiplicative approximation rate on a hypersurface. There are four regimes, according to convergence or divergence and curved or flat, and we address all of them. Using geometry and arithmetic in Fourier space, we…

To prove that Hilbert's tenth problem over a ring R has a negative answer, usually the integers or another ring for which Hilbert's tenth problem has a negative solution is modelled inside the ring of interest. In this paper, we formalize…

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 give a simple proof of why there is a Matrix theory approximation for a membrane shaped like an arbitrary Riemann surface. As corollaries, we show that noncompact membranes cannot be approximated by matrices and that the Poisson algebra…

We outline a proof of an analogue of Khintchine's Theorem in R^2, where the ordinary height is replaced by a distance function satisfying an irrationality condition as well as certain decay and symmetry conditions.

Let $\theta\in\mathbb{R}^d$. We associate three objects to each approximation $(p,q)\in \mathbb{Z}^d\times \mathbb{N}$ of $\theta$: the projection of the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{d+1}$ to the hyperplane of the first $d$ coordinates along the…

We develop a procedure for determining whether a square complex matrix is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric (i.e., self-transpose) matrix. Our approach has several advantages over existing methods. We discuss these differences and…

Jarn\'ik's relation is in dimension $2$ the formula $\hat{\lambda} + \frac{1}{\hat{\omega}} = 1$ linking both uniform exponents. It is an open question to generalize this equation to higher dimension, or to the multiplicative case. In this…

In this paper, we extend the theory of simultaneous Diophantine approximation to infinite dimensions. Moreover, we discuss Dirichlet-type theorems in a very general framework and define what it means for such a theorem to be optimal. We…

We prove a Diophantine approximation inequality for closed subschemes on surfaces which can be viewed as a joint generalization of recent inequalities of Ru-Vojta and Heier-Levin in this context. As applications, we study various…

We study the relationship between the adjacency matrix and the discrete Laplacian acting on 1-forms. We also prove that if the adjacency matrix is bounded from below it is not necessarily essentially self-adjoint. We discuss the question of…

We study the optimal rectangular-discrepancy approximation of permutons by finite permutations. We transfer bounds from discrepancy theory to this more restricted setup. Moreover, we show that superlinear approximation can occur only for…

We show that whenever $\delta>0$, $\eta$ is real and constants $\lambda_i$ satisfy some necessary conditions, there are infinitely many prime triples $p_1,\, p_2,\, p_3$ satisfying the inequality $|\lambda_1p_1 + \lambda_2p_2 +…

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…

Duffin and Schaeffer have generalized the classical theorem of Khintchine in metric Diophantine approximation in the case of any error function under the assumption that all the rational approximants are irreducible. This result is extended…

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 show that the parabola is of strong Khintchine type for convergence, which is the first result of its kind for curves. Moreover, Jarnik type theorems are established in both the simultaneous and the dual settings, without monotonicity on…
