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 $|x-a/q|<\Delta_q$.…
In this work, we use rational approximation to improve the accuracy of spectral solutions of differential equations. When working in the vicinity of solutions with singularities, spectral methods may fail their propagated spectral rate of…
We show how one can obtain rational approximants for $q$-extensions of the harmonic series and the logarithm (and many other similar quantities) by Pad\'e approximation using little $q$-Legendre polynomials and we show that properties of…
Diophantine approximation explores how well irrational numbers can be approximated by rationals, with foundational results by Dirichlet, Hurwitz, and Liouville culminating in Roth's theorem. Schmidt's subspace theorem extends Roth's results…
In 1958, Sz\"{u}sz proved an inhomogeneous version of Khintchine's theorem on Diophantine approximation. Sz\"{u}sz's theorem states that for any non-increasing approximation function $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to (0,1/2)$ with $\sum_q \psi(q)=\infty$…
Using elementary number theory we study Diophantine equations over the rational integers of the following form, $y^2=(x+a)(x+a+k)(x+b)(x+b+k)$, $y^2=c^2x^4+ax^2+b$ and $y^2=(x^2-1)(x^2-\alpha^2)(x^2-(\alpha+1)^2).$ We express their integer…
Pad\'e approximations and Siegel's lemma are widely used tools in Diophantine approximation theory. This work has evolved from the attempts to improve Baker-type linear independence measures, either by using the Bombieri-Vaaler version of…
We discuss Mahler's work on Diophantine approximation and its applications to Diophantine equations, in particular Thue-Mahler equations, S-unit equations and S-integral points on elliptic curves, and go into later developments concerning…
In this paper we present a new approach to prove effective results in Diophantine approximation. We then use it to prove an effective theorem on the simultaneous approximation of two algebraic numbers satisfying an algebraic equation with…
In this paper we suggest an implementation of Runge's method for solving Diophantine equations satisfying Runge's condition. In this implementation we avoid the use of Puiseux series and algebraic coefficients.
In this paper we initiate a new approach to studying approximations by rational points to points on smooth submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our main result is a convergence Khintchine type theorem for arbitrary nondegenerate submanifolds of…
We generalize Dirichlet's diophantine approximation theorem to approximating any real number $\alpha$ by a sum of two rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2 \leq N$. This turns out to be…
Let $\al$ be an irrational and $\varphi: \N \rightarrow \R^+$ be a function decreasing to zero. For any $\al$ with a given Diophantine type, we show some sharp estimations for the Hausdorff dimension of the set [E_{\varphi}(\al):={y\in \R:…
We use the theory of arithmetic quotients of the Bruhat-Tits tree developed by Serre and others to obtain Dirichlet-style theorems for Diophantine approximation on global function fields. This approach allows us to find sharp values for the…
Let $\alpha$ be an algebraic number of degree $d\ge 3$ having at most one real conjugate and let $K$ be the algebraic number field ${\mathbf Q}(\alpha)$. For any unit $\epsilon$ of $K$ such that ${\mathbf Q}(\alpha\epsilon)=K$, we consider…
We establish a Liouville type theorem for the fractional Lane-Emden system: \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{\begin{array}{l@{\quad }l} (-\Delta)^\alpha u=v^q&{\rm in}\,\,\R^N,\\ (-\Delta)^\alpha v=u^p&{\rm in}\,\,\R^N, \end{array} \right.…
Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…
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 establish an explicit asymptotic formula for the number of rational solutions of intrinsic Diophantine inequalities on simply-connected simple algebraic groups, at arbitrarily small scales.
Diophantine equations can often be reduced to various types of classical Thue equations. These equations usually have only very small solutions, on the other hand to compute all solutions (i.e. to prove the non-existence of large solutions)…
