We establish a strong form of Littlewood's conjecture with inhomogeneous shifts, for a full-dimensional set of pairs of badly approximable numbers on a vertical line. We also prove a uniform assertion of this nature, generalising a strong…

We prove that any given function can be smoothly approximated by functions lying in the kernel of a linear operator involving at least one fractional component. The setting in which we work is very general, since it takes into account…

This PhD thesis elaborates on a problem raised by Schmidt in 1967. We study Diophantine exponents for subspaces, which generalize the irrationality measure for real numbers. We construct subspaces with prescribed exponents and demonstrate…

We propose a general method for optimization with semi-infinite constraints that involve a linear combination of functions, focusing on the case of the exponential function. Each function is lower and upper bounded on sub-intervals by…

We describe inexact proximal Newton-like methods for solving degenerate regularized optimization problems and for the broader problem of finding a zero of a generalized equation that is the sum of a continuous map and a maximal monotone…

Successive quadratic approximations, or second-order proximal methods, are useful for minimizing functions that are a sum of a smooth part and a convex, possibly nonsmooth part that promotes regularization. Most analyses of iteration…
