Khnichin's theorem is a surprising and still relatively little known result. It can be used as a specific criterion for determining whether or not any given number is irrational. In this paper we apply this theorem as well as the…
In [1], we give Dickson's conjecture on $N^n$. In this paper, we further give Dickson's conjecture on $Z^n$ and obtain an equivalent form of Green-Tao's conjecture [2]. Based on our work, it is possible to establish a general theory that…
We give several results related to inhomogeneous approximations to two real numbers and badly approximable numbers. Our results are related to classical theorems by A. Khintchine (1926) and to an original method invented by Y. Peres and W.…
In this paper we study the problem of almost periodicity of solutions for dissipative differential equations (Bronshtein's conjecture). We give a positive answer to this conjecture for monotone almost periodic systems of…
We consider a uniqueness problem concerning the Fourier coefficients of normalized Cauchy transforms. These problems inherently involve proving a simultaneous approximation phenomenon and establishing the existence of cyclic inner functions…
We study the rate of growth of ergodic sums along a sequence (a_n) of times: S_N f(x)=f(T^{a_1}x) + ... + f(T^{a_N}x). We characterize the maximal rate of growth of these ergodic sums and identify a number of sequences such as (2^n) that…
We investigate approximation to a given real number by algebraic numbers and algebraic integers of prescribed degree. We deal with both best and uniform approximation, and highlight the similarities and differences compared with the…
The Bateman--Horn Conjecture predicts how often an irreducible polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ assumes prime values. We demonstrate that with sufficient averaging in the coefficients of $f$ (viz. exponential in the size of the inputs),…
Refining an argument of the second author, we improve the known bounds for the number of rational points near a submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^d$ of intermediate dimension under a natural curvature condition. Furthermore, in the codimension $2$…
We consider Khintchine type inequalities on the $p$-th moments of vectors of $N$ $k$-wise independent Rademacher random variables. We show that an analogue of Khintchine's inequality holds, with a constant $N^{1/2-k/2p}$, when $k$ is even.…
This paper is motivated by recent applications of Diophantine approximation in electronics, in particular, in the rapidly developing area of Interference Alignment. Some remarkable advances in this area give substantial credit to the…
We introduce a family of maps generating continued fractions where the digit $1$ in the numerator is replaced cyclically by some given non-negative integers $(N_1,\ldots,N_m)$. We prove the convergence of the given algorithm, and study the…
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 $\sum_q \psi(q)=\infty$…
Following T. H. Chan, we consider the problem of approximation of a given rational fraction a/q by sums of several rational fractions a_1/q_1, ..., a_n/q_n with smaller denominators. We show that in the special cases of n=3 and n=4 and…
A complete p-adic Khintchine type theorem for approximation by p-adic algebraic numbers is established.
Our purpose is to give an account of the $r$-tuple problem on the increasing sequence of reduced fractions having denominators bounded by a certain size and belonging to a fixed real interval. We show that when the size grows to infinity,…
Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be irrational real numbers and $0<\F<1/30$. We prove a precise estimate for the number of positive integers $q\leq Q$ that satisfy $\|q\alpha\|\cdot\|q\beta\|<\F$. If we choose $\F$ as a function of $Q$ we get…
We analyse an argument of Deutsch, which purports to show that the deterministic part of classical quantum theory together with deterministic axioms of classical decision theory, together imply that a rational decision maker behaves as if…
Zaremba's 1971 conjecture predicts that every integer appears as the denominator of a finite continued fraction whose partial quotients are bounded by an absolute constant. We confirm this conjecture for a set of density one.
Can you decide if there is a coincidence in the numbers counting two different combinatorial objects? For example, can you decide if two regions in $\mathbb{R}^3$ have the same number of domino tilings? There are two versions of the…
