We give new classes of examples of orbits of the diagonal group in the space of unit volume lattices in R^d for d > 2 with nice (homogeneous) orbit closures, as well as examples of orbits with explicitly computable but irregular orbit…
The Weak approximation theorem describes the closure of $G(Q)$ inside $G(Q_p)$ as well as inside $G(R)$ for $G$ an algebraic group over $Q$; the closure is always an open normal subgroup with finite abelian quotient, and is well understood…
Let lambda_1, \lambda_2, \lambda_3, \lambda_4 be non-zero real numbers, not all negative, with \lambda_1/\lambda_2 irrational and algebraic. Suppose that \mathcal{V} is a well-spaced sequence and \delta >0. In this paper, it is proved that…
Given an increasing integer sequence $(a_n)$, a real number $\alpha$, and a sequence $\psi(n)$, we study the set $W$ of real numbers $\gamma$ for which $a_n\alpha - \gamma$ is a distance less than $\psi(n)$ away from an integer. This is…
Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…
Let $\al$ be an irrational and $\varphi: \N \rightarrow \R^+$ be a function decreasing to zero. For any $\al$ with a given Diophantine type, we show some sharp estimations for the Hausdorff dimension of the set [E_{\varphi}(\al):={y\in \R:…
In this paper we obtain the Lebesgue and Hausdorff measure results for the set of vectors satisfying infinitely many fully non-linear Diophantine inequalities. The set is associated with a class of linear inhomogeneous partial differential…

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…
In this paper we prove inequalities for multiplicative analogues of Diophantine exponents, similar to the ones known in the classical case. Particularly, we show that a matrix is badly approximable if and only if its transpose is badly…
Given a connected semisimple Lie group $G$ and an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$, it is well-known that each irreducible representation $\pi$ of $G$ occurs in the discrete spectrum $L^2_{\text{disc}}(\Gamma\backslash G)$ of…
Let $Y_0$ be a not very well approximable $m\times n$ matrix, and let $M$ be a connected analytic submanifold in the space of $m\times n$ matrices containing $Y_0$. Then almost all $Y\in M$ are not very well approximable. This and other…
Let $M$ be a compact closed manifold of variable negative curvature. Fix an element $\operatorname{id} \neq \gamma$ in the fundamental group $\Gamma$ of $M$, and denote the set of elements in $\Gamma$ that are conjugate to $\gamma$ by…
The paper deals with a nontrivial density result for $C^m(\overline{\Omega})$ functions, with $m\in{\mathbb N}\cup\{\infty\}$, in the space $$W^{k,\ell,p}(\Omega;\Gamma)= \left\{u\in W^{k,p}(\Omega): u_{|\Gamma}\in…
Let G be a compact group acting in a real vector space V. We obtain a number of inequalities relating the L^infinity norm of a matrix element of the representation of G with its L^p norm for p<infinity. We apply our results to obtain…
Negative type inequalities arise in the study of embedding properties of metric spaces, but they often reduce to intractable combinatorial problems. In this paper we study more quantitative versions of these inequalities involving the…
We show that independent and uniformly distributed sampling points are as good as optimal sampling points for the approximation of functions from the Sobolev space $W_p^s(\Omega)$ on bounded convex domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in…
In recent years, the ergodic theory of group actions on homogeneous spaces has played a significant role in the metric theory of Diophantine approximation. We survey some recent developments with special emphasis on Diophantine properties…
