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…
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 the convergence theory of multiplicative Diophantine approximation for all non-degenerate, smooth manifolds. We also settle said convergence theory for all affine subspaces satisfying a highly generic and essentially optimal…
We solve the convergence case of the generalized Baker-Schmidt problem for simultaneous approximation on affine subspaces, under natural diophantine type conditions. In one of our theorems, we do not require monotonicity on the…
Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}^n$ be a non-singular hypersurface of degree $d>1$, and let $\epsilon>0$. This paper is concerned with the conjecture that there are $O(B^{n-1+\epsilon})$ rational points on $X$ that have height at most $B$, in…
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…
This paper establishes the conjecture that a non-singular projective hypersurface of dimension $r$, which is not equal to a linear space, contains $O(B^{r+\epsilon})$ rational points of height at most $B$, for any choice of $\epsilon>0$.…
For $n\geq 3$, let $\mathscr{M} \subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n}$ be a compact hypersurface, parametrized by a homogeneous function of degree $d\in \mathbb{R}_{>1}$, with non-vanishing curvature away from the origin. Consider the number…
Refining an argument of the second author, we improve the known bounds for the number of rational points near a submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^d$ of intermediate dimension under a natural curvature condition. Furthermore, in the codimension $2$…
This paper is motivated by two problems in the theory of Diophantine approximation, namely, Davenport's problem regarding badly approximable points on submanifolds of a Euclidean space and Schmidt's problem regarding the intersections of…
Many questions about triangles and quadrilaterals with rational sides, diagonals and areas can be reduced to solving certain Diophantine equations. We look at a number of such questions including the question of approximating arbitrary…
We quantify the density of rational points in the unit sphere $S^n$, proving analogues of the classical theorems on the embedding of $\q^n$ into $\r^n$. Specifically, we prove a Dirichlet theorem stating that every point $\alpha \in S^n$ is…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective hypersurface defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. We provide new bounds for rational points of bounded height on $X$. In particular, we show that if $X$ is a smooth projective hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with $n\geq…
We consider the question of how well points in a quadric hypersurface $M\subset\mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by rational points of $\mathbb Q^d\cap M$. This contrasts with the more common setup of approximating points in a manifold by…
We investigate the question of how well points on a nondegenerate $k$-dimensional submanifold $M \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by rationals also lying on $M$, establishing an upper bound on the "intrinsic Dirichlet exponent"…
We study the density of solutions to Diophantine inequalities involving non-singular ternary forms, or equivalently, the density of rational points close to non-singular plane algebraic curves.
We establish sharp upper and lower bounds for the number of rational points of bounded anticanonical height on a smooth bihomogeneous threefold defined over Q and of bidegree (1, 2). These bounds are in agreement with Manin's conjecture.
In this paper we develop a new explicit method to studying rational points near manifolds and obtain optimal lower bounds on the number of rational points of bounded height lying at a given distance from an arbitrary non-degenerate curve.…
