In this work we proof the following theorem which is, in addition to someother lemmas, our main result:\noindent \textbf{theorem}. Let$\ X=\{ ( x\_{1}\text{, }%t\_{1}) \text{, }( x\_{2}\text{, }t\_{2}) \text{, ..., }(x\_{n}\text{,…
We study the general problem of extremality for metric Diophantine approximation on submanifolds of matrices. We formulate a criterion for extremality in terms of a certain family of algebraic obstructions and show that it is sharp. In…
Diophantine approximation explores how well irrational numbers can be approximated by rationals, with foundational results by Dirichlet, Hurwitz, and Liouville culminating in Roth's theorem. Schmidt's subspace theorem extends Roth's results…
Let $\Gamma$ be the multiplicative semigroup of all $n\times n$ matrices with integral entries and positive determinant. Let $1\leq p \leq n-1$ and $V=\R^n\oplus \cdots \oplus \R^n$ ($p$ copies). We consider the componentwise action of…
We exploit dynamical properties of diagonal actions to derive results in Diophantine approximations. In particular, we prove that the continued fraction expansion of almost any point on the middle third Cantor set (with respect to the…
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…
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…
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…
In 1926 Khintchine introduced a topological argument proving the existence of uncountably many nontrivial singular linear forms of $n \geq 2$ variables. Throughout the years, this argument has been extensively modified and generalized. Most…
This paper uses W. M. Schmidt's idea formulated in 1967 to generalise the classical theory of Diophantine approximation to subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Given two subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$ $A$ and $B$ of respective dimensions $d$ and $e$…
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"…
In the thirties of the last century, I. M. Vinogradov established uniform distribution modulo 1 of the sequence $p\alpha$ when $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real number and $p$ runs over the primes. In particular, he showed that the…
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…
Let $E\subset [0,1)^{d}$ be a set supporting a probability measure $\mu$ with Fourier decay $|\widehat{\mu}({\bf{t}})|\ll (\log |{\bf{t}}|)^{-s}$ for some constant $s>d+1.$ Consider a sequence of expanding integral matrices…
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…
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 show that the parabola is of strong Khintchine type for convergence, which is the first result of its kind for curves. Moreover, Jarnik type theorems are established in both the simultaneous and the dual settings, without monotonicity on…
We study the diophantine exponent of analytic submanifolds of the space of m by n real matrices, answering questions of Beresnevich, Kleinbock and Margulis. We identify a family of algebraic obstructions to the extremality of such a…
We study metric Diophantine approximation in local fields of positive characteristic. Specifically, we study the problem of improving Dirichlet's theorem in Diophantine approximation and prove very general results in this context.
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…
