A {\it two-dimensional continued fraction expansion} is a map $\mu$ assigning to every $x \in\mathbb R^2\setminus\mathbb Q^2$ a sequence $\mu(x)=T_0,T_1,\dots$ of triangles $T_n$ with vertices $x_{ni}=(p_{ni}/d_{ni},q_{ni}/d_{ni})\in\mathbb…

In the first part we construct algorithms which we apply to solve S-unit, Mordell, cubic Thue, cubic Thue-Mahler and generalized Ramanujan-Nagell equations. As a byproduct we obtain alternative practical approaches for various classical…

The convergence theory for the set of simultaneously $\psi$-approximable points lying on a planar curve is established. Our results complement the divergence theory developed in `Diophantine approximation on planar curves and the…

Let A be an arbitrary integral domain of characteristic 0 which is finitely generated over Z. We consider Thue equations $F(x,y)=b$ with unknowns x,y from A and hyper- and superelliptic equations $f(x)=by^m$ with unknowns from A, where the…

The present paper is concerned with equidistribution results for certain flows on homogeneous spaces and related questions in Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we answer in the affirmative, a question raised by Kleinbock, Shi and Weiss…

We establish a `mixed' version of a fundamental theorem of Khintchine within the field of simultaneous Diophantine approximation. Via the notion of ubiquity we are able to make significant progress towards the completion of the metric…

The Hausdorff dimension of the set of simultaneously tau well approximable points lying on a curve defined by a polynomial P(X)+alpha, where P(X) is a polynomial with integer coefficients and alpha is in R, is studied when tau is larger…

Schmidt generalized in 1967 the theory of classical Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\R^n$. We consider Diophantine exponents for linear subspaces of $\R^n$ which generalize the irrationality measure for real numbers. Using…

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…

We relate a previous result of ours on families of Diophantine equations having only trivial solutions with a result on the approximation of an algebraic number by products of rational numbers and units. We compare this approximation with a…

Many questions about triangles and quadrilaterals with rational sides, diagonals and areas can be reduced to solving certain Diophantine equations. We look at a number of such questions including the question of approximating arbitrary…

In this paper, Thue's Fundamentaltheorem is analysed. We show that it includes, and often strengthens, known effective irrationality measures obtained via the so-called hypergeometric method as well as showing that it can be applied to…

We prove a strong simultaneous Diophantine approximation theorem for values of additive and multiplicative functions provided that the functions have certain regularity on the primes.

Consider a finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and any of its moduli spaces $\mathcal{M}(A,\mathbf{d})^{ss}_{\theta}$ of representations. We prove a decomposition theorem which relates any irreducible component of…

Building on work of Davenport and Schmidt, we mainly prove two results. The first one is a version of Gel'fond's transcendence criterion which provides a sufficient condition for a complex or $p$-adic number $\xi$ to be algebraic in terms…

In 1996 N. Chevallier proved a beautiful lemma which connects Diophantine approximation and multidimensional generalizations of the famous Three Distance Theorem. Using this lemma we show how known results about multidimensional three…

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…

Metric Diophantine approximation in its classical form is the study of how well almost all real numbers can be approximated by rationals. There is a long history of results which give partial answers to this problem, but there are still…

Let $\alpha$ be an algebraic number of degree $d\ge 3$ and let $K$ be the algebraic number field $\Q(\alpha)$. When $\varepsilon$ is a unit of $K$ such that $\Q(\alpha\varepsilon)=K$, we consider the irreducible polynomial $f_\varepsilon(X)…

In this chapter we introduce the theory of Diophantine approximation via a series of basic examples from information theory relevant to wireless communications. In particular, we discuss Dirichlet's theorem, badly approximable points,…
