The inhomogeneous Khintchine-Groshev Theorem is a classical generalization of Khintchine's Theorem in Diophantine approximation, by approximating points in $\mathbb{R}^m$ by systems of linear forms in $n$ variables. Analogous to the…

We develop the Mass Transference Principle for rectangles of Wang \& Wu (Math. Ann. 2021) to incorporate the `unbounded' setup; that is, when along some direction the lower order (at infinity) of the side lengths of the rectangles under…

We determine the classical approximation constants $w_{3}(\zeta),w_{3}^{\ast}(\zeta),\lambda_{3}(\zeta)$ such as the uniform constants $\widehat{w}_{3}(\zeta),\widehat{w}_{3}^{\ast}(\zeta),\widehat{\lambda}_{3}(\zeta)$ associated to real…

We look at a class of transcendental real numbers xi which, together with their square, satisfy some extremal property of simultaneous approximation by rational numbers with the same denominator. We give a sufficient condition for such a…

The Schmidt Subspace Theorem affirms that the solutions of some particular system of diophantine approximations in projective spaces accumulates on a finite number of proper linear subspaces. Given a subvariety $X$ of a projective space…

Given $n\in N$ and $x,\gamma\in R$, let \begin{equation*} ||\gamma-nx||^\prime=\min\{|\gamma-nx+m|:m\in Z, \gcd (n,m)=1\}, \end{equation*} %where $(n,m)$ is the largest common divisor of $n$ and $m$. Two conjectures in the coprime…

Let $b\geq3$ be an integer and $C(b,D)$ be the set of real numbers in $[0,1]$ whose $b$-ary expansion consists of digits restricted to a given set $D\subseteq\{0,\ldots,b-1\}$. Given an integer $t\geq2$ and a real, positive function $\psi$,…

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…

In one-dimensional Diophantine approximation, the Diophantine properties of a real number are characterized by its partial quotients, especially the growth of its large partial quotients. Notably, Kleinbock and Wadleigh [Proc. Amer. Math.…

It is well known that in dimension one the set of Dirichlet improvable real numbers consists precisely of badly approximable and singular numbers. We show that in higher dimensions this is not the case by proving that there exist continuum…

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…

Consider the well-known Langevin diffusion on $\mathbb{R}^d$ $$\mathrm{d} X_t = -\nabla U(X_t)\,\mathrm{d} t + \sqrt{2}\mathrm{d} B_t, $$ and its Euler-Maruyama discretization given by $$X_{k+1}=X_k-\eta \nabla U(X_k)+\sqrt{2\eta…

We prove an estimate for the number of lattice points lying in certain non-convex Euclidean domains of interest in Diophantine approximation. As an application, we generalise a result of Kruse (1964) concerning the almost sure order of…

We compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of simultaneously $q^{-\lambda}$-well approximable points on the Veronese curve in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $\lambda$ between $\frac{1}{n}$ and $\frac{2}{2n-1}$. For $n=3$, the same result is given…

We prove an effective estimate for the counting function of Diophantine approximants on the sphere S$^n$. We use homogeneous dynamics on the space of orthogonal lattices, in particular effective equidistribution results and non-divergence…

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 a ground-breaking work \cite{BY}, Beresnevich and Yang recently proved Khintchine's theorem in simultaneous Diophantine approximation for nondegenerate manifolds resolving a long-standing problem in the theory of Diophantine…

In 2002, F. Luca and G. Walsh solved the Diophantine equation in the title for all pairs (a,b) such that 1<a<b<101 with some exceptions. There are sixty nine exceptions. In this paper, we give some new results concerning the equation in the…

Let $\alpha$ be an irrational real number. We show that the set of $\epsilon$-badly approximable numbers \[ \mathrm{Bad}^\varepsilon (\alpha) := \{x\in [0,1]\, : \, \liminf_{|q| \to \infty} |q| \cdot \| q\alpha -x \| \geq \varepsilon \} \]…
