The goal of this paper is to develop the theory of weighted Diophantine approximation of rational numbers to $p$-adic numbers. Firstly, we establish complete analogues of Khintchine's theorem, the Duffin-Schaeffer theorem and the…

We investigate gaps of $n$-term arithmetic progressions $x, x+y, \ldots, x+(n-1)y$ inside a positive measure subset $A$ of the unit cube $[0,1]^d$. If lengths of their gaps $y$ are evaluated in the $\ell^p$-norm for any $p$ other than $1,…

We consider, over both the integers and finite fields, Szemer\'{e}di's theorem on $k$-term arithmetic progressions where the set $S$ of allowed common differences in those progressions is restricted and random. Fleshing out a line of…

We introduce a new, elementary method for studying random differences in arithmetic progressions and convergence phenomena along random sequences of integers. We apply our method to obtain significant improvements on previously known…

We propose a new $(1+O(\varepsilon))$-approximation algorithm with $O(n+ 1/\varepsilon^{\frac{(d-1)}{2}})$ running time for computing the diameter of a set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space for a fixed dimension $d$,…

Suppose that $\xi^{(n)}_1,\xi^{(n)}_2,...,\xi^{(n)}_n$ are i.i.d with $P(\xi^{(n)}_i=1)=p_n=1-P(\xi^{(n)}_i=0)$. Let $U^{(n)}$ and $W^{(n)}$ be the longest length of arithmetic progressions and of arithmetic progressions mod $n$ relative to…

Our main result states that when A, B, C are subsets of Z/NZ of respective densities \alpha,\beta,\gamma, the sumset A + B + C contains an arithmetic progression of length at least e^{c(\log N)^c} for densities \alpha > (\log N)^{-2 +…

For a given decreasing positive real function $\psi$, let $\mathcal{A}_n(\psi)$ be the set of real numbers for which there are infinitely many integer polynomials $P$ of degree up to $n$ such that $\left\lvert P(x) \right\rvert \leq…

We use a $p$-adic analogue of the analytic subgroup theorem of W\"ustholz to deduce the transcendence and linear independence of some new classes of $p$-adic numbers. In particular we give $p$-adic analogues of results of W\"ustholz…

We study some known approximation properties and introduce and investigate several new approximation properties, closely connected with different quasi-normed tensor products. These are the properties like the $AP_s$ or $AP_{(s,w)}$ for…

In a previous paper of the authors, we showed that for any polynomials $P_1,\dots,P_k \in \Z[\mathbf{m}]$ with $P_1(0)=\dots=P_k(0)$ and any subset $A$ of the primes in $[N] = \{1,\dots,N\}$ of relative density at least $\delta>0$, one can…

Green and Sisask showed that the maximal number of $3$-term arithmetic progressions in $n$-element sets of integers is $\lceil n^2/2\rceil$; it is easy to see that the same holds if the set of integers is replaced by the real line or by any…
