We study Lagrange spectra arising from intrinsic Diophantine approximation of circles and spheres. More precisely, we consider three circles embedded in $\mathbb{R}^2$ or $\mathbb{R}^3$ and three spheres embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$ or…
Markoff-Lagrange spectrum uncovers exotic topological properties of Diophantine approximation. We investigate asymptotic properties of geometric progressions modulo one and observe significantly analogous results on the set \[ {\mathcal…
Given a conic $\mathcal{C}$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, it is natural to ask what real points on $\mathcal{C}$ are most difficult to approximate by rational points of low height. For the analogous problem on the real line (for which the least…
The (classical) Lagrange spectrum is a closed subset of the positive real numbers defined in terms of diophantine approximation. Its structure is quite involved. This article describes a polynomial time algorithm to approximate it in…
Two infinite sets $A$ and $B$ of non-negative integers are called \emph{perfect additive complements of non-negative integers}, if every non-negative integer can be uniquely expressed as the sum of elements from $A$ and $B$. In this paper,…
Fix $d\in\mathbb N$, and let $S\subseteq\mathbb R^d$ be either a real-analytic manifold or the limit set of an iterated function system (for example, $S$ could be the Cantor set or the von Koch snowflake). An $extrinsic$ Diophantine…
We develop the theory of Diophantine approximation for systems of simultaneously small linear forms, which coefficients are drawn from any given analytic non-degenerate manifolds. This setup originates from a problem of Sprind\v{z}uk from…
The Lagrange and Markov spectra $L$ and $M$ describe the best constants of Diophantine approximations for irrational numbers and binary quadratic forms. In 1880, A. Markov showed that the initial portions of these spectra coincide: indeed,…
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…
We generalise M. M. Skriganov's notion of weak admissibility for lattices to include standard lattices occurring in Diophantine approximation and algebraic number theory, and we prove estimates for the number of lattice points in sets such…
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…
In this article we study Diophantine approximation and local distribution of a rational point on a toric surface obtained as a blow-up of $\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1$. It turns out that outside a Zariski closed subset the best…
Fix an integer $n\ge 2$. To each non-zero point $\mathbf{u}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, one attaches several numbers called exponents of Diophantine approximation. However, as Khintchine first observed, these numbers are not independent of each…
In this paper, we consider the intrinsic Diophantine approximation on the triadic Cantor set $\mathcal{K}$, i.e. approximating the points in $\mathcal{K}$ by rational numbers inside $\mathcal{K}$, a question posed by K. Mahler. By using…
In this paper, we establish asymptotic formulae with optimal errors for the number of rational points that are close to a planar curve, which unify and extend the results of Beresnevich-Dickinson-Velani and Vaughan-Velani. Furthermore, we…
Let ${n_k}$ be an increasing lacunary sequence, i.e., $n_{k+1}/n_k>1+r$ for some $r>0$. In 1987, P. Erdos asked for the chromatic number of a graph $G$ on the integers, where two integers $a,b$ are connected by an edge iff their difference…
We generalize Dirichlet's diophantine approximation theorem to approximating any real number $\alpha$ by a sum of two rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2 \leq N$. This turns out to be…
The Lagrange spectrum $\mathcal{L}$ and Markov spectrum $\mathcal{M}$ are subsets of the real line with complicated fractal properties that appear naturally in the study of Diophantine approximations. It is known that the Hausdorff…
In this paper we consider a Schrodinger eigenvalue problem with a potential consisting of a periodic part together with a compactly supported defect potential. Such problems arise as models in condensed matter to describe color in crystals…
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…
