We study Diophantine approximation in completions of functions fields over finite fields, and in particular in fields of formal Laurent series over finite fields. We introduce a Lagrange spectrum for the approximation by orbits of quadratic…

We determine, up to lower-order terms in the exponent, the best possible deterministic polynomial-time approximation ratio for the permanent of a Hermitian positive semidefinite matrix. If $A\succeq 0$ has no zero diagonal entry,…

We prove a refined version of Markov's theorem in Diophantine approximation. More precisely, we characterize completely the set of irrationals $x$ such that $\left|x-\frac{p}{q}\right|<\frac{1}{3q^2}$ has only finitely many rational…

Let $\gamma\in(0;\frac{1}{2}),\tau\geq 1$ and define the "$\gamma,\tau$ Diophantine set" as: $$D_{\gamma, \tau}:=\{\alpha\in (0;1): ||q\alpha||\geq\frac{\gamma}{q^{\tau}}\quad\forall q\in\Bbb{N}\},\qquad ||x||:=\inf_{p\in\Bbb{Z}}|x-p|.$$ We…
