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…
Let $X\subseteq G\slash B$ be a Schubert variety in a flag manifold and let $\pi: \tilde X \rightarrow X$ be a Bott-Samelson resolution of $X$. In this paper we prove an effective version of the decomposition theorem for the derived…
Let $\mathcal{D}=(d_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a bounded sequence of integers with $d_n\ge 2$ and let $(i, j)$ be a pair of strictly positive numbers with $i+j=1$. We prove that the set of $x \in \RR$ for which there exists some constant $c(x) >…
We study extensions and generalizations of the Schmidt Subspace Theorem in various settings. In particular, we prove results for algebraic points of bounded degree, giving a sharp version of Schmidt's theorem for quadratic points in the…
This work is motivated by a paper of Davenport and Schmidt, which treats the question of when Dirichlet's theorems on the rational approximation of one or of two irrationals can be improved and if so, by how much. We consider a…
We study a finite-field analogue of the Erd\H{o}s distinct distances problem under the Hamming metric. For a set \(S\subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n\) let $\Delta(S)$ denote the set of Hamming distances determined by \(S\). We prove the lower bound…
In differential algebra, a proper scheme $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ with a derivation $\partial$ on it descends to the field of constants $K^\partial$ if $X$ itself lifts the derivation $\partial$. This is a result…
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…
We prove that if the classical Baum-Connes conjecture in complex K-theory is true (for a given discrete group G), then the conjecture is also true in the real case (for the same group G). The essential ingredients of the proof are the…
We classify all linear division sequences in the integers, a problem going back to at least the 1930s. As a corollary we also classify those linear recurrence sequences in the integers for which $(x_m,x_n)=\pm x_{(m,n)}$. We also show that…
Let f(t,X) be an irreducible polynomial over the field of rational functions k(t), where k is a number field. Let O be the ring of integers of k. Hilbert's irreducibility theorem gives infinitely many integral specializations of t to values…
Quantum logic was introduced in 1936 by Garrett Birkhoff and John von Neumann as a framework for capturing the logical peculiarities of quantum observables. It generalizes, and on 1-dimensional Hilbert space coincides with, Boolean…
In quantum information theory, the Schmidt rank is a fundamental measure for the entanglement dimension of a pure bipartite state. Its natural definition uses the Schmidt decomposition of vectors on bipartite Hilbert spaces, which does not…
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.…
Between his arrival in Frankfurt in $1922$ and and his proof of his famous finiteness theorem for integral points in $1929$, Siegel had no publications. He did, however, write a letter to Mordell in $1926$ in which he explained a proof of…
In this short note we have proved an enhanced version of a theorem of Lorentz [1] and its generalization to the multivariate case which gives a non- uniform estimate of degree of approximation by a polynomial with positive coefficients. The…
Let X be a geometrically split, geometrically irreducible variety over a field F satisfying Rost nilpotence principle. Consider a field extension E/F and a finite field K. We provide in this note a motivic tool giving sufficient conditions…
In his 1960 paper, Schmidt studied a quantitative type of Khintchine-Groshev theorem for general (higher) dimensions. Recently, a new proof of the theorem was found, which made it possible to relax the dimensional constraint and more…
In order to compute the Schmidt decomposition of $A\in M_k\otimes M_m$, we must consider an associated self-adjoint map. Here, we show that if $A$ is positive under partial transposition (PPT) or symmetric with positive coefficients (SPC)…
We prove a metric statement about approximation of a $n$-dimensional linear subspace $A$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ by $n$-dimensional rational subspaces. We consider the problem of finding a rational subspace $B$ of bounded height $H=H(B)$ for…
