Fix an integer $n\ge 2$. To each non-zero point $\mathbf{u}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, one attaches several numbers called exponents of Diophantine approximation. However, as Khintchine first observed, these numbers are not independent of each…

Let $\beta>1$ be fixed. We consider the $(\frak{b, d})$ numeration system, where the base ${\frak b}=(b_k)_{k\geq 0}$ is a sequence of positive real numbers satisfying $\lim_{k\rightarrow \infty}b_{k+1}/b_k=\beta$, and the set of digits…

This paper uses W. M. Schmidt's idea formulated in 1967 to generalise the classical theory of Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Given two subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ $A$ and $B$ of respective dimensions $d$ and $e$…

The Lagrange spectrum $L$ is the set of finite values of the best approximation constants $k(\alpha)=\limsup_{|p|,|q|\to \infty}|q(q\alpha-p)|^{-1}$, where $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}\setminus \mathbb{Q}$. It is a classical result that the pairs…

For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and integers $d$ and $k$, a set of vectors of $\mathbb{F}^d$ is called $k$-nearly orthogonal if its members are non-self-orthogonal and every $k+1$ of them include an orthogonal pair. We prove that for every prime…
