This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…
This paper studies the properties of a new lower bound for the natural pseudo-distance. The natural pseudo-distance is a dissimilarity measure between shapes, where a shape is viewed as a topological space endowed with a real-valued…
We study the problem of Diophantine approximation on lines in $\mathbb{R}^d$ under certain primality restrictions.
We establish a new upper bound for the number of rationals up to a given height in a missing-digit set, making progress towards a conjecture of Broderick, Fishman, and Reich. This enables us to make novel progress towards another conjecture…
We prove analogues of some classical results from Diophantine approximation and metric number theory (namely Dirichlet's theorem and the Duffin--Schaeffer theorem) in the setting of diagonal Diophantine approximation, i.e. approximating…
In a previous paper, we studied certain sequences of simultaneous rational approximations in ${\bf R}^2$ which present some analogy with the continued fractions. We got results around the Littlewood conjecture by using such approximations.…
In this paper we prove an inequality for individual and uniform Diophantine exponents in the case of simultaneous approximation. This inequality is better than Jarnik's for small values of the uniform exponent.
A method is suggested for treating the well-known deficiency in the use of Pade approximants that are well suited for approximating rational functions, but confront problems in approximating irrational functions. We develop the approach of…
The goal of this paper is to develop the theory of weighted Diophantine approximation of rational numbers to $p$-adic numbers. Firstly, we establish complete analogues of Khintchine's theorem, the Duffin-Schaeffer theorem and the…
We study Diophantine approximation in completions of functions fields over finite fields, and in particular in fields of formal Laurent series over finite fields. We introduce a Lagrange spectrum for the approximation by orbits of quadratic…
We give upper bounds for the number of integral solutions of bounded height to a system of equations $f_i(x_1,\ldots,x_n) = 0$, $1 \leq i \leq r$, where the $f_i$ are polynomials with integer coefficients. The estimates are obtained by…
We give upper and lower bounds for Diophantine exponents measuring how well a point in the plane can be approximated by points in the orbit of a lattice $\Gamma<\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ acting linearly on $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our method gives…
In this paper, we study inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation with rational numbers of reduced form. The central object to study is the set $W(f,\theta)$ as follows, \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{x\in [0,1]:\left…
In the field of statistics, many kind of divergence functions have been studied as an amount which measures the discrepancy between two probability distributions. In the differential geometrical approach in statistics (information…
The badly approximable points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ are those for which Dirichlet's approximation theorem cannot be improved by more than a constant, that is, they are the points most difficult to approximate by rational vectors. An important…
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 prove a new lower bound for the exponent of growth of the best two-dimensional Diophantine approximations with respect to Euclidean norm.
In a series of recent papers, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer developed a new theory by which they recover all major generic inequalities relating exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and find new ones. Given a…
We rigorously establish the asymptotic equivalence between the height function of interacting dimers on the square lattice and the massless Gaussian free field. Our theorem explains the microscopic origin of the sine-Gordon field theory…
Considering simultaneous approximation to three numbers, we study the geometry of the sequence of best approximations. We provide a sharper lower bound for the ratio between ordinary and uniform exponent of Diophantine approximation,…
