Let $\zeta$ be a real transcendental number. We introduce a new method to find upper bounds for the classical exponent $\widehat{w}_{n}(\zeta)$ concerning uniform polynomial approximation. Our method is based on the parametric geometry of…

In a series of articles published in the C.R. Paris more than a century ago, T. P\'epin announced a list of ``theorems'' concerning the solvability of diophantine equations of the type $ax^4 + by^4 = z^2$. In this article, we show how to…

We obtain an asymptotic formula for the number of integer $2\times 2$ matrices that have determinant $\Delta$ and whose absolute values of the entries are at most $H$. The result holds uniformly for a large range of $\Delta$ with respect to…

We prove a sharp analogue of Minkowski's inhomogeneous approximation theorem over fields of power series $\mathbb{F}_q((T^{-1}))$. Furthermore, we study the approximation to a given point $\underline{y}$ in $\mathbb{F}_q((T^{-1}))^2$ by the…

The approximation constant $\lambda_{k}(\zeta)$ is defined as the supremum of real $\eta$ such that $\Vert \zeta^{j}x\Vert\leq x^{-\eta}$ for $1\leq j\leq k$ has infinitely many integer solutions $x$. Here $\Vert.\Vert$ denotes the distance…

We survey classical and recent results on exponents of Diophantine approximation. We give only a few proofs and highlight several open problems.

We prove that a $C^{3+\beta}$-smooth orientation-preserving circle diffeomorphism with rotation number in Diophantine class $D_\delta$, $0<\beta<\delta<1$, is $C^{2+\beta-\delta}$-smoothly conjugate to a rigid rotation.

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…

We discuss some easy statements dealing with linear inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Surprisingly, we did not find some of them in the literature.

We reduce the principal problem of Additive Number Theory of whether an infinite sequence of integers constitutes a finite basis for the integers to a Diophantine problem involving the difference set of the sequence, by proving a formula…

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 $\hat{w}_{n}^{\ast}$.…

Finding integer solutions to norm form equations is a classical Diophantine problem. Using the units of the associated coefficient ring, we can produce sequences of solutions to these equations. It is known that these solutions can be…
