Let g_j denote the largest integer that is represented exactly j times as a non-negative integer linear combination of { x_1, ... , x_n. We show that for any k > 0, and n = 5, the quantity g_0 - g_k is unbounded. Furthermore, we provide…

We study the number of lattice points in integer dilates of the rational polytope $P = (x_1,...,x_n) \in \R_{\geq 0}^n : \sum_{k=1}^n x_k a_k \leq 1$, where $a_1,...,a_n$ are positive integers. This polytope is closely related to the linear…
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…
The so-called Frobenius number in the famous linear Diophantine problem of Frobenius is the largest integer such that the linear equation $a_1 x_1+\cdots+a_k x_k=n$ ($a_1,\dots,a_k$ are given positive integers with $\gcd(a_1,\dots,a_k)=1$)…
