Let $\cal C$ be a non--degenerate planar curve and for a real, positive decreasing function $\psi$ let $\cal C(\psi)$ denote the set of simultaneously $\psi$--approximable points lying on $\cal C$. We show that $\cal C$ is of Khintchine…

By the theory of elliptic curves, we investigate the nontrivial rational parametric solutions of the Diophantine equation $f(x)f(y)=f(z)^n$, where $n=1,2$ and $f(X)$ are some simple Laurent polynomials.
Let $X$ be a smooth projective algebraic variety over a number field $k$ and $P$ in $X(k)$. In 2007, the second author conjectured that, in a precise sense, if rational points on $X$ are dense enough, then the best rational approximations…
We study the density of solutions to Diophantine inequalities involving non-singular ternary forms, or equivalently, the density of rational points close to non-singular plane algebraic curves.
There are abundant results on Diophantine approximation over fields of positive characteristic (see the survey papers [13, 25]), but there is very little information about simultaneous approximation. In this paper, we develop a technique of…
Approximation by polynomials on a triangle is studied in the Sobolev space $W_2^r$ that consists of functions whose derivatives of up to $r$-th order have bounded $L^2$ norm. The first part aims at understanding the orthogonal structure in…
We study shortest paths and their distances on a subset of a Euclidean space, and their approximation by their equivalents in a neighborhood graph defined on a sample from that subset. In particular, we recover and extend the results of…
Let $C$ be a smooth genus one curve described by a quartic polynomial equation over the rational field $\mathbb Q$ with $P\in C(\mathbb Q)$. We give an explicit criterion for the divisibility-by-$2$ of a rational point on the elliptic curve…
We study polyhedral approximations to the cone of nonnegative polynomials. We show that any constant ratio polyhedral approximation to the cone of nonnegative degree $2d$ forms in $n$ variables has to have exponentially many facets in terms…
In this extended abstract we deal with the relations between the numerical/diophantine approximation and the symbolic/algebraic geometry approachs to solving of multivariate diophentine polynomial systems, obtaining several consecuences…
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 discuss a rational version of a conjecture of Matiyasevich, Davis, and Putnam on the relative decidability of the finiteness problem for Diophantine equations with respect to the existence problem. We formulate a suspicion that for…
A rational approximation by a ratio of polynomial functions is a flexible alternative to polynomial approximation. In particular, rational functions exhibit accurate estimations to nonsmooth and non- Lipschitz functions, where polynomial…
We give necessary and sufficient topological conditions for a simple closed curve on a real rational surface to be approximable by smooth rational curves. We also study approximation by smooth rational curves with given complex…
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…
We study continuous approximate solutions to polynomial equations over the ring $C(X)$ of continuous complex-valued functions over a compact Hausdorff space $X$. We show that when $X$ is one-dimensional, the existence of such approximate…
