A classical result of Kaufman states that, for each $\tau>1,$ the set of well approximable numbers \[ E(\tau)=\{x\in\mathbb{R}: \|qx\| < |q|^{-\tau} \text{ for infinitely many integers q}\} \] is a Salem set with Hausdorff dimension…
We exhibit the first explicit examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of every dimension $0 < \alpha < 1$ by showing that certain sets of well-approximable $p$-adic numbers are Salem sets. We construct measures supported on these sets that…
Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space, and let $Q \subset X$ be countable. Given functions $R: Q \to \mathbb{R}^+$ and $\phi: \mathbb{R}^+ \to \mathbb{R}^+$, we consider the set $E(Q, R, \phi)$ of points $x \in X$ that ``hit'' the…
In this paper we study a quantitative notion of exactness within Diophantine approximation. Given $\Psi:(0,\infty)\to (0,\infty)$ and $\omega:(0,\infty)\to (0,1)$ satisfying $\lim_{q\to\infty}\omega(q)=0$, we study the set of points, which…
Let $\psi : \mathbb{R}_{>0}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{>0}$ be a non-increasing function. Denote by $W(\psi)$ the set of $\psi$-well-approximable points and by $E(\psi)$ the set of points $x\in[0,1]$ such that for any $0 < \epsilon < 1$ there…
In this paper we construct a new family of sets based on Diophantine approximation in the Euclidean space, and consider their applications in several problems in harmonic analysis. Our first application is on the Hausdorff dimension of our…
In this paper, we answer a question of Cai-Hambrook in (arXiv$\colon$ 2403.19410). Furthermore, we compute the Fourier dimension of the multiplicative $\psi$-well approximable set $$M_2^{\times}(\psi)=\left\{(x_1,x_2)\in [0,1]^{2}\colon…
In this paper, we study inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation with rational numbers of reduced form. The central object to study is the set $W(f,\theta)$ as follows, \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{x\in [0,1]:\left…
We construct the first explicit (i.e., non-random) examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of arbitrary prescribed Hausdorff dimension. This completely resolves a problem proposed by Kahane more than 60 years ago. The construction is based…
Let Q be an infinite set of positive integers. Denote by W_{\tau, n}(Q) (resp. W_{\tau, n}) the set of points in dimension n simultaneously \tau--approximable by infinitely many rationals with denominators in Q (resp. in N*). A non--trivial…
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…
Let $E\subset [0,1)^{d}$ be a set supporting a probability measure $\mu$ with Fourier decay $|\widehat{\mu}({\bf{t}})|\ll (\log |{\bf{t}}|)^{-s}$ for some constant $s>d+1.$ Consider a sequence of expanding integral matrices…
Let $\alpha$ be an irrational real number. We show that the set of $\epsilon$-badly approximable numbers \[ \mathrm{Bad}^\varepsilon (\alpha) := \{x\in [0,1]\, : \, \liminf_{|q| \to \infty} |q| \cdot \| q\alpha -x \| \geq \varepsilon \} \]…
Let $E\subset [0,1]$ be a set that supports a probability measure $\mu$ with the property that $|\widehat{\mu}(t)|\ll (\log |t|)^{-A}$ for some constant $A>2.$ Let $\mathcal{A}=(q_n)_{n\in \N}$ be a positive, real-valued, lacunary sequence.…
We prove that for any proper metric space $X$ and a function $\psi:(0,\infty)\to(0,\infty)$ from a suitable class of approximation functions, the Hausdorff dimensions of the set $W_\psi(Q)$ of all points $\psi$-well-approximable by a…
In this paper, we study inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation over the completion $K_v$ of a global function field $K$ (over a finite field) for a discrete valuation $v$, with affine algebra $R_v$. We obtain an effective upper bound for…
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…
Let (X,d) be a metric space and (\Omega, d) a compact subspace of X which supports a non-atomic finite measure m. We consider `natural' classes of badly approximable subsets of \Omega. Loosely speaking, these consist of points in \Omega…
We prove a Khintchine result for convergence of a multiplicative Diophantine set with restricted denominators on an arbitrary non-degenerate line. Specifically, given sequences of real numbers $\{a_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}},\,…
This paper uses W. M. Schmidt's idea formulated in 1967 to generalise the classical theory of Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Given two subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ $A$ and $B$ of respective dimensions $d$ and $e$…
