We establish the analogue of Khintchine's theorem for all self-similar probability measures on the real line. When specified to the case of the Hausdorff measure on the middle-thirds Cantor set, the result is already new and provides an…

Given $q\in \mathbb{N}_{\ge 3}$ and a finite set $A\subset\mathbb{Q}$, let $$K(q,A)= \bigg\{\sum_{i=1}^{\infty} \frac{a_i}{q^{i}}:a_i \in A ~\forall i\in \mathbb{N} \bigg\}.$$ For $p\in\mathbb{N}_{\ge 2}$ let $D_p\subset\mathbb{R}$ be the…

This work is motivated by problems on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on manifolds, namely, establishing Khintchine and Jarnik type theorems for submanifolds of R^n. These problems have attracted a lot of interest since Kleinbock and…

We establish a new upper bound for the number of rationals up to a given height in a missing-digit set, making progress towards a conjecture of Broderick, Fishman, and Reich. This enables us to make novel progress towards another conjecture…

We show that periodic points of period $n$ of a complex rational map of degree $d$ equidistribute towards the equilibrium measure $\mu_f$ of the rational map with a rate of convergence of $(nd^{-n})^{1/2}$ for $\mathscr{C}^1$-observables.…

The Duffin--Schaeffer Conjecture answers a question on how well one can approximate irrationals by rational numbers in reduced form (an imposed condition) where the accuracy of the approximation depends on the rational number. It can be…

This work addresses problems on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on fractals, motivated by a long standing problem of Mahler regarding Cantor's middle $1/3$ set. We obtain the first instances where a complete analogue of Khintchine's…

Let $F \subseteq [0,1]$ be a set that supports a probability measure $\mu$ with the property that $ |\widehat{\mu}(t)| \ll (\log |t|)^{-A}$ for some constant $ A > 0 $. Let $\mathcal{A}= (q_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} $ be a sequence of natural…

In this paper we initiate a new approach to studying approximations by rational points to points on smooth submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our main result is a convergence Khintchine type theorem for arbitrary nondegenerate submanifolds of…

We find upper and lower bounds on the number of rational points that are $\psi$-approximations of some $n$-dimensional $p$-adic integer. Lattice point counting techniques are used to find the upper bound result, and a Pigeon-hole principle…

Given two coprime integers $p\ge 2$ and $q \ge 3$, let $D_p\subset[0,1)$ consist of all rational numbers which have a finite $p$-ary expansion, and let $$ K(q, \mathcal{A})=\bigg\{ \sum_{i=1}^\infty \frac{d_i}{q^i}: d_i\in \mathcal{A}~…

The present paper analyzes the discrepancy of distribution of rational points on general semisimple algebraic group varieties. The results include mean-square, almost sure, and uniform discrepancy estimates with explicit error bounds, which…

In this paper, we complete the long-standing challenge to establish a Khintchine-type theorem for arbitrary nondegenerate manifolds in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, our main result finally removes the analyticity assumption from the…

In this paper we develop the convergence theory of simultaneous, inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation on manifolds. A consequence of our main result is that if the manifold $M \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is of dimension strictly greater than…

We establish various new results on a problem proposed by K. Mahler in 1984 concerning rational approximation to fractal sets by rational numbers inside and outside the set in question, respectively. Some of them provide a natural…

We extend the classical theorems of Khintchine and Schmidt in metric Diophantine approximation to the context of self-similar measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$. For this, we establish effective equidistribution of associated random walks on…

Following K. Mahler's suggestion for further research on intrinsic approximation on the Cantor ternary set, we obtain a Dirichlet type theorem for the limit sets of rational iterated function systems. We further investigate the behavior of…

Let $K\subset\mathbb R^d$ be a compact subset equipped with a $\delta$-Ahlfors regular measure $\mu$. For any $\tau>1/d$ and any ``inhomogeneous'' vector $\boldsymbol{\theta}\in\mathbb R^d$, let $W_d(\psi_\tau,\boldsymbol{\theta})$ denote…

For any positive integer $p\geq 3$, let $A$ be a proper subset of $\{0,1,\ldots, p-1\}$ with $\sharp A=s\geq 2$. Suppose $h: \{0,1,\ldots,s-1\}\to A$ is a one-to-one map which is strictly increasing with $A=\{h(0),h(1),\ldots,h(s-1)\}$. We…

We establish a general transference principle for the irrationality measure of points with $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly independent coordinates in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, for any given integer $n\geq 1$. On this basis, we recover an important…
