We give an algorithm that finds a sequence of approximations with Dirichlet coefficients bounded by a constant only depending on the dimension. The algorithm uses the LLL-algorithm for lattice basis reduction. We present a version of the…
Let $T_\beta$ be the $\beta$-transformation on $[0,1)$ defined by $$T_\beta(x)=\beta x\text{ mod }1.$$ We study the Diophantine approximation of the orbit of a point $x$ under $T_\beta$. Precisely, for given two positive functions…
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 recall the notion of nearest integer continued fractions over the Euclidean imaginary quadratic fields $K$ and characterize the "badly approximable" numbers, ($z$ such that there is a $C(z)>0$ with $|z-p/q|\geq C/|q|^2$ for all $p/q\in…
We study the multifractal properties of the uniform approximation exponent and asymptotic approximation exponent in continued fractions. As a corollary, %given a nonnegative reals $\hat{\nu},$ we calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the…
We apply Christ's method of refinements to the $\ell^p$-improving problem for discrete averages $\mathcal{A}_N$ along polynomial curves in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Combined with certain elementary estimates for the number of solutions to certain…
Let $k \geq 2$, $q$ be an odd prime power, and $F \in \mathbb{F}_q[x_1, \ldots, x_k]$ be a polynomial. An $F$-Diophantine set over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a set $A \subset \mathbb{F}_q^*$ such that $F(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k)$ is a…
We study the distribution of spacings between the fractional parts of $n^d\alpha$. For $\alpha$ of high enough Diophantine type we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for $n^d\alpha\mod 1, 1\leq n\leq N,$ to be Poissonian as $N\to…
This paper addresses a problem recently raised by Laurent and Nogueira about inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation with coprime integers. As a corollary of our main theorem we obtain an improvement of the best known exponent of…
Let $\Theta=(\alpha,\beta)$ be a point in $\bR^2$, with $1,\alpha,\beta$ linearly independent over $\bQ$. We attach to $\Theta$ a quadruple $\Omega(\Theta)$ of exponents which measure the quality of approximation to $\Theta$ both by…
Our aim is to find a complex continued fraction algorithm finding all the best Diophantine approximations to a complex number. Using the sequence of minimal vectors in a two dimensional lattice over Gaussian integers, we obtain an algorithm…
We present a new fractional Taylor formula for singular functions whose Caputo fractional derivatives are of bounded variation. It bridges and ``interpolates" the usual Taylor formulas with two consecutive integer orders. This enables us to…
It is an old problem in the area of Diophantine definability to determine whether $\mathbb{Q}$ is Diophantine in $\mathbb{Q}(z)$. We provide a positive answer conditional on two standard conjectures on elliptic surfaces.
We investigate the geometry of approximates in multiplicative Diophantine approximation. Our main tool is a new multiparameter averaging result for Siegel transforms on the space of unimodular lattices in ${\mathbb R}^n$ which is of…
The idea of using measure theoretic concepts to investigate the size of number theoretic sets, originating with E. Borel, has been used for nearly a century. It has led to the development of the theory of metrical Diophantine approximation,…
In this paper we develop a new explicit method to studying rational points near manifolds and obtain optimal lower bounds on the number of rational points of bounded height lying at a given distance from an arbitrary non-degenerate curve.…
We exploit dynamical properties of diagonal actions to derive results in Diophantine approximations. In particular, we prove that the continued fraction expansion of almost any point on the middle third Cantor set (with respect to the…
This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…
Let $v$ be an odd real polynomial (i.e. a polynomial of the form $\sum_{j=1}^\ell a_jx^{2j-1}$). We utilize sets of iterated differences to establish new results about sets of the form $\mathcal…
For any given real number $\alpha$ with bounded partial quotients, we construct explicitly continuum many real numbers $\beta$ with bounded partial quotients for which the pair $(\alpha, \beta)$ satisfies a strong form of the Littlewood…
