For $\zeta$ a transcendental real number, we consider the classical Diophantine exponents $w_{n}(\zeta)$ and $\widehat{w}_{n}(\zeta)$. They measure how small $| P(\zeta)|$ can be for an integer polynomial $P$ of degree at most $n$ and naive…
W.M.Schmit[11] conjectured that for any$\;\theta$ with deg$\;\theta\geq 3,$ there is no constant$\;C=C(\theta)$ so that$\;|p-q\theta|>Cq^{-1}$ for every rationa$\;p/q.$ [12,p26] states that the computations of the first several thousand…
In this article we generalize Borel's classical approximation results for the regular continued fraction expansion to the alpha-Rosen fraction expansion, using a geometric method. We give a Haas-Series-type result about all possible good…
As one of the asymptotic formulas for the zeta-function, Hardy and Littlewood gave asymptotic formulas called the approximate functional equation. In 2003, R. Garunk\v{s}tis, A. Laurin\v{c}ikas, and J. Steuding (in [1]) proved the…
New (infinitely many) rational approximants to \zeta(3) proving its irrationality are given. The recurrence relations for the numerator and denominator of these approximants as well as their continued fraction expansions are obtained. A…
We prove an explicit formula for infinitely many convergents of Hurwitzian continued fractions that repeat several copies of the same constant and elements of one arithmetic progression, in a quasi-periodic fashion. The proof involves…
We study the Diophantine properties of a new class of transcendental real numbers which contains, among others, Roy's extremal numbers, Bugeaud-Laurent Sturmian continued fractions, and more generally the class of Sturmian type numbers. We…
In a series of recent papers, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer developed a new theory by which they recover all major generic inequalities relating exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and find new ones. Given a…
We introduce a new exponent of simultaneous rational approximation $\widehat{\lambda}_{\min}(\xi,\eta)$ for pairs of real numbers $\xi,\eta$, in complement to the classical exponents $\lambda(\xi,\eta)$ of best approximation, and…
The Stieltjes constants $\gamma_k(a)$ appear in the regular part of the Laurent expansion for the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s,a)$. We present summatory results for these constants $\gamma_k(a)$ in terms of fundamental mathematical…
This paper concerns extension of the classical Lagrange theorem, on the eventual periodicity of continued fraction expansions of quadratic surds, and the versions of it found in the literature in the case of complex numbers. In this…
Ap\'ery's remarkable discovery of rapidly converging continued fractions with small coefficients for $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ has led to a flurry of important activity in an incredible variety of different directions. Our purpose is to…
Fundamental mathematical constants like $e$ and $\pi$ are ubiquitous in diverse fields of science, from abstract mathematics to physics, biology and chemistry. For centuries, new formulas relating fundamental constants have been scarce and…
Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…
New expansions of the number zeta(3) in continuous fractions are found.
Zaremba's Conjecture concerns the formation of continued fractions with partial quotients restricted to a given alphabet. In order to answer the numerous questions that arrive from this conjecture, it is best to consider a semi-group, often…
We define a continued fraction map associated with the $\mathfrak o(\sqrt{-3})$-module $\mathcal J = \eta \cdot\mathfrak o(\sqrt{-3})$, $\eta = \frac{3 + \sqrt{-3}}{2}$, which is an Eisenstein field version of the continued fraction map…
The Stieltjes constants \gamma_k(a) appear as the coefficients in the regular part of the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function \zeta(s,a) about s=1. We present series representations of these constants of interest to theoretical…
For an infinite word $\mathbf{x}$, Bugeaud and Kim introduced a new complexity function $\text{rep}(\mathbf{x})$ which is called the exponent of repetition of $\mathbf{x}$. They showed $1\le \text{rep}(\mathbf{x}) \le \sqrt{10}-\frac{3}{2}$…
This paper follows the generalisation of the classical theory of Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ established by W. M. Schmidt in 1967. Let $A$ and $B$ be two subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of respective dimensions $d$…
