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…
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.…
In this article, we establish an analogue of the dimension growth conjecture, which is regarding the density of rational points on projective varieties, for compact submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with non-vanishing curvature. We also…
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…
In this article we establish two new results on quantitative Diophantine approximation for one-parameter families of diagonal ternary indefinite forms. In the first result, we consider quadratic forms taking values at prime points. In 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…
For a large class of isotrivial rational elliptic surfaces (with section), we show that the set of rational points is dense for the Zariski topology, by carefully studying variations of root numbers among the fibers of these surfaces. We…
Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…
In this article, we are interested in finding rational points on certain superelliptic curves.
We establish an explicit asymptotic formula for the number of rational solutions of intrinsic Diophantine inequalities on simply-connected simple algebraic groups, at arbitrarily small scales.
In this paper, we initiate the systematic study of density of algebraic points on surfaces. We give an effective asymptotic range in which the density degree set has regular behavior dictated by the index. By contrast, in small degree, the…
We consider the problem of Diophantine approximation on semisimple algebraic groups by rational points with restricted numerators and denominators and establish a quantitative approximation result for all real points in the group by…
Diophantine approximation is traditionally the study of how well real numbers are approximated by rationals. We propose a model for studying Diophantine approximation in an arbitrary totally bounded metric space where the rationals are…
We prove two related concentration inequalities concerning the number of rational points of hyperelliptic curves over subsets of a finite field. In particular, we investigate the probability of a large discrepancy between the numbers of…
By using pairs of nontrivial rational solutions of congruent number equation $$ C_N:\;\;y^2=x^3-N^2x, $$ constructed are pairs of rational right (Pythagorean) triangles with one common side and the other sides equal to the sum and…
The primary goal of this paper is to complete the theory of metric Diophantine approximation initially developed in [Ann. of Math.(2) 166 (2007), p.367-426] for $C^3$ non-degenerate planar curves. With this goal in mind, here for the first…
This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…
By the theory of elliptic curves, we study the nontrivial rational parametric solutions and rational solutions of the Diophantine equations $z^2=f(x)^2 \pm f(y)^2$ for some simple Laurent polynomials $f$.
We study the existence of rational points on modular curves of $\cal{D}$-elliptic sheaves over local fields and the structure of special fibres of these curves. We discuss some applications which include finding presentations for arithmetic…
In the presence of a positive, compactly supported measure on an affine algebraic curve, we relate the density of polynomials in Lebesgue $L^2$-space to the existence of analytic bounded point evaluations. Analogues to the complex plane…
