We study rational approximation properties for successive powers of extremal numbers defined by Roy. For $n\in{\{1,2\}}$, the classic approximation constants $\lambda_{n}(\zeta),\hat{\lambda}_{n}(\zeta),w_{n}(\zeta),\hat{w}_{n}(\zeta)$…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character mod $D$ with $L(s,\chi)$ its associated $L$-function, and let $\psi(x,q,a)$ be Chebyshev's prime-counting function for primes congruent to $a$ modulo $q$. We show that under the assumption of an…

Let $\varepsilon>0$ be a small constant. In the present paper we prove that whenever $\eta$ is real and constants $\lambda _i$ satisfy some necessary conditions, then there exist infinitely many prime triples $p_1,\, p_2,\, p_3$ satisfying…

In his book \emph{Topics in Analytic Number Theory}, Hans Rademacher conjectured that the limits of certain sequences of coefficients that arise in the ordinary partial fraction decomposition of the generating function for partitions of…

A theorem of Hoischen states that given a positive continuous function $\varepsilon:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$, an integer $n\geq 0$, and a closed discrete set $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}$, any $C^n$ function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ can be…

Let $C$ be the middle third Cantor set and $\mu$ be the $\frac{\log 2}{\log 3}$-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to $C$. In this paper we study approximations of elements of $C$ by dyadic rationals. Our main result implies that for…

For a prime $p$ and an integer $u$ with $\gcd(u,p)=1$, we define Fermat quotients by the conditions $$ q_p(u) \equiv \frac{u^{p-1} -1}{p} \pmod p, \qquad 0 \le q_p(u) \le p-1. $$ D. R. Heath-Brown has given a bound of exponential sums with…

Let $d(n)$ denote the Dirichlet divisor function. Define \begin{equation*} \mathcal{S}_{k}(x)=\sum_{\substack{1\leqslant n_1,n_2,n_3 \leqslant x^{1/2} \\ 1\leqslant n_4\leqslant x^{1/k} }} d(n_1^2+n_2^2+n_3^2+n_4^k), \qquad 3\leqslant k\in…

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…

Assuming Lang's conjectured lower bound on the heights of non-torsion points on an elliptic curve, we show that there exists an absolute constant C such that for any elliptic curve E/Q and non-torsion point P in E(Q), there is at most one…

Zaremba's conjecture concerns a formation of continued fraction expansions for rational numbers with partial quotient bounded by an absolute constant. We present asymptotic estimates for the size of $\epsilon$-thickening of certain fractal…

The distribution of $\alpha p$ modulo one, where $p$ runs over the rational primes and $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real, has received a lot of attention. It is natural to ask for which exponents $\nu>0$ one can establish the infinitude…

Let $\varepsilon>0$. We construct an explicit, full-measure set of $\alpha \in[0,1]$ such that if $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}$ then, for almost all $\beta \in[0,1]$, if $\delta \in \mathbb{R}$ then there are infinitely many integers $n\geq 1$…

Let $ \mathbb{Q}\mathcal{E}_{\mathbb{Z}} $ be the set of power sums whose characteristic roots belong to $ \mathbb{Z} $ and whose coefficients belong to $ \mathbb{Q} $, i.e. $ G : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{Q} $ satisfies…

A suggestion is put forward regarding a partial proof of FLT(case1), which is elegant and simple enough to have caused Fermat's enthusiastic remark in the margin of his Bachet edition of Diophantus' "Arithmetica". It is based on an…

We prove under the Bombieri-Lang conjecture for surfaces that there is an absolute bound on the length of sequences of integer squares with constant second differences, for sequences which are not formed by the squares of integers in…

We establish an adelic version of Dirichlet's approximation theorem on spheres. Let $K$ be a number field, $E$ be a rigid adelic space over $K$ and $q\colon E\to K$ be a quadratic form. Let $v$ be a place of $K$ and $\alpha\in…

Let $1<k<14/5$, $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\lambda_3$ and $\lambda_4$ be non-zero real numbers, not all of the same sign such that $\lambda_1/\lambda_2$ is irrational and let $\omega$ be a real number. We prove that the inequality…

The Dirichlet eta function can be divided into $n$-th partial sum $\eta_{n}(s)$ and remainder term $R_{n}(s)$. We focus on the remainder term which can be approximated by the expression for $n$. And then, to increase reliability, we make…

Rational approximations to a square root $\sqrt{k}$ can be produced by iterating the transformation $f(x) = (dx+k)/(x+d)$ starting from $\infty$ for any positive integer $d$. We show that these approximations coincide infinitely often with…
