Given any irrational number $\alpha$, we show that for any $0<\theta<6/17$, there are infinitely many $y$-smooth (friable) numbers $n$ such that $$\|n\alpha\| < n^{-\theta},$$ where $(\log n)^C\leq y\leq n$ for some large constant $C>0$.…

In this paper, we study Diophantine exponents $w_n$ and $w_n ^{*}$ for Laurent series over a finite field. Especially, we deal with the case $n=2$, that is, quadratic approximation. We first show that the range of the function $w_2-w_2…

Let $\alpha$ be a real number greater than $1$. We establish an effective lower bound for the distance between an integral power of $\alpha$ and its nearest integer.

It is a fundamental property of non-letter Lyndon words that they can be expressed as a concatenation of two shorter Lyndon words. This leads to a naive lower bound log_{2}(n)} + 1 for the number of distinct Lyndon factors that a Lyndon…

In this paper, we explicitly find all solutions of the title Diophantine equation, using lower bounds for linear forms in logarithms and properties of continued fractions. Further, we use a version of the Baker-Davenport reduction method in…

We study Fibonacci compositions, which are compositions of natural numbers that only use Fibonacci numbers, in two different contexts. We first prove inequalities comparing the number of Fibonacci compositions to regular compositions where…

Suppose that $c,d,\alpha,\beta$ are real numbers satisfying the inequalities $1<d<c<79/71$ and $1<\alpha<\beta<6^{1-d/c}$. In this paper, it is proved that, for sufficiently large real numbers $N_1$ and $N_2$ subject to $\alpha\leqslant…

Denote by s_F(n) the minimal number of Fibonacci numbers needed to write n as a sum of Fibonacci numbers. We obtain the extremal minimal and maximal orders of magnitude of s_F(n^h)/s_F(n) for any h>= 2. We use this to show that for all…

Let G be a finite abelian group of order n. For a complex valued function f on G, let \fht denote the Fourier transform of f. The uncertainty inequality asserts that if f \neq 0 then |supp(f)| |supp(\fht)| \geq n. Answering a question of…

Let $(X_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with distribution $\mathbb P(X_1=1)=\mathbb P(X_1=-1)=1/2$. Let $F(\sigma)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty X_nn^{-\sigma}$. We prove that the following holds almost surely…

We exploit dynamical properties of diagonal actions to derive results in Diophantine approximations. In particular, we prove that the continued fraction expansion of almost any point on the middle third Cantor set (with respect to the…

We show that the growth rate of denominator $Q_n$ of the $n$-th convergent of negative expansion of $x$ and the rate of approximation: $$ \frac{\log{n}}{n}\log{\left|x-\frac{P_n}{Q_n}\right|}\rightarrow -\frac{\pi^2}{3} \quad \text{in…

We prove a generalization of W.M. Schmidt's theorem related to the Diophantine approximations for a linear form of the type $\alpha_1x_1+\alpha_2x_2 +y$ with {\it positive} integers $x_1,x_2$.

We call an $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$ regainingly approximable if there exists a computable nondecreasing sequence $(a_n)_n$ of rational numbers converging to $\alpha$ with $\alpha - a_n < 2^{-n}$ for infinitely many $n \in \mathbb{N}$. We…

Let $[\,\cdot\,]$ denote the floor function. In this paper, we show that whenever $\eta$ is real and the constants $\lambda _i$ satisfy some necessary conditions, then for any fixed $\frac{63}{64}<\gamma<1$ and $\theta>0$, there exist…

Let $\varepsilon>0$ be a small constant. In the present paper we prove that whenever $\eta$ is real and constants $\lambda _i$ satisfy some necessary conditions, then there exist infinitely many prime triples $p_1,\, p_2,\, p_3$ satisfying…

Fix an irrational number $\theta$. For a real number $\tau >0$, consider the numbers $y$ satisfying that for all large number $Q$, there exists an integer $1\leq n\leq Q$, such that $\|n\theta-y\|<Q^{-\tau}$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is the…

We establish Diophantine inequalities for the fractional parts of generalized polynomials $f$, in particular for sequences $\nu(n)=\lfloor n^c\rfloor+n^k$ with $c>1$ a non-integral real number and $k\in\mathbb{N}$, as well as for $\nu(p)$…

A long-standing conjecture of Littlewood about simultaneous Diophantine approximation has an analogous problem for a field of formal Laurent series $\mathbb{F}(\!(t^{-1})\!)$. That is, we can ask whether for any series $\Theta$, $\Phi$ and…

Fractional order controllers become increasingly popular due to their versatility and superiority in various performance. However, the bottleneck in deploying these tools in practice is related to their analog or numerical implementation.…
