Given quantities $\Delta_1,\Delta_2,\dots\geqslant 0$, a fundamental problem in Diophantine approximation is to understand which irrational numbers $x$ have infinitely many reduced rational approximations $a/q$ such that $|x-a/q|<\Delta_q$.…

We give a sufficient and necessary condition such that for almost all $s\in{\mathbb R}$ \[ \|n\theta-s\|<\psi(n)\qquad\text{for infinitely many}\ n\in{\mathbb N}, \] where $\theta$ is fixed and $\psi(n)$ is a positive, non-increasing…

We prove over fields of power series the analogues of several Diophantine approximation results obtained over the field of real numbers. In particular we establish the power series analogue of Kronecker's theorem for matrices, together with…

Answering two questions of Beresnevich and Velani, we develop zero-one laws in both simultaneous and multiplicative Diophantine approximation. Our proofs rely on a Cassels-Gallagher type theorem as well as a higher-dimensional analogue of…

The present paper is a sequel to [Monatsh.~Math.\ {\bf 194} (2021), 523--554] in which results of that paper are generalized so that they hold in the setting of inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Given any integers $n \geq 2$ and…

In 1962, Gallagher proved an higher dimensional version of Khintchine's theorem on Diophantine approximation. Gallagher's theorem states that for any non-increasing approximation function $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to (0,1/2)$ with…

The Duffin-Schaeffer theorem is a well-known result from metric number theory, which generalises Khinchin's theorem from monotonic functions to a wider class of approximating functions. In recent years, there has been some interest in…

Given a nonnegative function $\psi : \N \to \R $, let $W(\psi)$ denote the set of real numbers $x$ such that $|nx -a| < \psi(n) $ for infinitely many reduced rationals $a/n (n>0) $. A consequence of our main result is that $W(\psi)$ is of…

The inhomogeneous metric theory for the set of simultaneously $\psi$-approximable points lying on a planar curve is developed. Our results naturally incorporate the homogeneous Khintchine-Jarnik type theorems recently established in [Ann.…

The classical Khintchine-Groshev theorem is a generalization of Khintchine's theorem on simultaneous Diophantine approximation, from approximation of points in $\mathbb R^m$ to approximation of systems of linear forms in $\mathbb R^{nm}$.…

In [Compositio Math. 155 (2019)] Kleinbock and Wadleigh proved a "zero-one law" for uniform inhomogeneous Diophantine approximations. We generalize this statement with arbitrary weight functions and establish a new and simple proof of this…

We prove that the inhomogeneous variant of Khintchine's Theorem holds in dimension $2$ without any monotonicity assumption. This resolves the last remaining case in the metric theory of inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation: while the…
