Kurzweil's theorem ('55) is concerned with zero-one laws for well approximable targets in inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation under the badly approximable assumption. In this article, we prove the divergent part of a Kurzweil type…

Given a number field $k$ and a positive integer $n$, there exists an algebraic variety $X$ over $k$ and a function $f$ on $X$ whose set of values $f(X(k))$ on the set of $k$-points of $X$ is the complement in $k$ of the set of $n$-th…

The purpose of this article is to formulate a number of probabilistic hidden-variable theorems, to provide proofs in some cases, and counterexamples to some conjectured relationships. The first theorem is the fundamental one. It asserts the…

Baiocchi et al. generalized a few years ago a classical theorem of Ingham and Beurling by means of divided differences. The optimality of their assumption has been proven by the third author of this note. The purpose of this note to extend…

We use the theory of arithmetic quotients of the Bruhat-Tits tree developed by Serre and others to obtain Dirichlet-style theorems for Diophantine approximation on global function fields. This approach allows us to find sharp values for the…

This paper is devoted to the proof Gauss' divergence theorem in the framework of "ultrafunctions". They are a new kind of generalized functions, which have been introduced recently [2] and developed in [4], [5] and [6]. Their peculiarity is…

A basic question of Diophantine approximation, which is the first issue we discuss, is to investigate the rational approximations to a single real number. Next, we consider the algebraic or polynomial approximations to a single complex…

We develop the theory of Diophantine approximation for systems of simultaneously small linear forms, which coefficients are drawn from any given analytic non-degenerate manifolds. This setup originates from a problem of Sprind\v{z}uk from…

In 1984, Kurt Mahler posed the following fundamental question: How well can irrationals in the Cantor set be approximated by rationals in the Cantor set? Towards development of such a theory, we prove a Dirichlet-type theorem for this…

We show the existence of a measurable selector in Carpenter's Theorem due to Kadison. This solves a problem posed by Jasper and the first author. As an application we obtain a characterization of all possible spectral functions of…

Let $K$ denote the middle third Cantor set and ${\cal A}:= \{3^n : n = 0,1,2, >... \} $. Given a real, positive function $\psi$ let $ W_{\cal A}(\psi)$ denote the set of real numbers $x$ in the unit interval for which there exist infinitely…

We develop a framework for studying quasi-periodic maps and diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{R}^n$. As an application, we prove that the Euler equation is locally well posed in a space of quasi-periodic vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^n$. In…

The main aim of the paper is to present a general version of the Fourier Tauberian theorem for monotone functions. This result, together with Berezin's inequality, allows us to obtain a refined version the Li-Yau estimate for the counting…

We show that an earlier conjecture of the author, on diophantine approximation of rational points on varieties, implies the ``abc conjecture'' of Masser and Oesterl'e. In fact, a weak form of the former conjecture is sufficient, involving…

In a recent work [3], the authors established new results about general linear Mahler systems in several variables from the perspective of transcendental number theory, such as a multivariate extension of Nishioka's theorem. Working with…

We give an a geometric interpretation of the Hasse-Arf theorem for function fields using the recently proved Oort conjecture.

We construct the first explicit (i.e., non-random) examples of Salem sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of arbitrary prescribed Hausdorff dimension. This completely resolves a problem proposed by Kahane more than 60 years ago. The construction is based…

We first propose two conjectural estimates on Diophantine approximation of logarithms of algebraic numbers. Next we discuss the state of the art and we give further partial results on this topic.

The extension of the Campbell-Magaard embedding theorem to general relativity with minimally-coupled scalar fields is formulated and proven. The result is applied to the case of a self-interacting scalar field for which new embeddings are…

We prove a quantitative version of Oppenheim's conjecture for generic ternary indefinite quadratic forms. Our results are inspired by and analogous to recent results for diagonal quadratic forms due to Bourgain.
