Given any line in the plane, we strengthen the Littlewood conjecture by two logarithms for almost every point on the line, thereby generalising the fibre result of Beresnevich, Haynes, and Velani. To achieve this, we prove an effective…

The paper deals with best one--sided (lower or upper) Diophantine approximations of the $\ell$-th kind ($\ell\in\mathbb{N}$). We use the ordinary continued fraction expansions to formulate explicit criteria for a fraction…

The present paper is concerned with equidistribution results for certain flows on homogeneous spaces and related questions in Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we answer in the affirmative, a question raised by Kleinbock, Shi and Weiss…

Dirichlet's uniform approximation theorem is a fundamental result in Diophantine approximation that gives an optimal rate of approximation with a given bound. We study uniform Diophantine approximation properties on the Hecke group $\mathbf…

In this paper, we provide a complete theory of Diophantine approximation in the limit set of a group acting on a Gromov hyperbolic metric space. This summarizes and completes a long line of results by many authors, from Patterson's classic…

For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…

Let $\phi(z)$ be a non-isotrivial rational function in one-variable with coefficients in $\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p(t)$ and assume that $\gamma\in\mathbb{P}^1(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p(t))$ is not a post-critical point for $\phi$. Then we prove…

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…

Let $\Theta = (\theta_1,\theta_2,\theta_3)\in \mathbb{R}^3$. Suppose that $1,\theta_1,\theta_2,\theta_3$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Z}$. For Diophantine exponents $$ \alpha(\Theta) = \sup \{\gamma >0:\,\,\, \limsup_{t\to…

We present a new argument in the study of positive entropy measures for higher rank diagonalisable actions. The argument relies on a quantitative form of recurrence along unipotent directions (that are not known to preserve the measure).…

We establish that the optimal bound for the size of the smallest integral solution of the Oppenheim Diophantine approximation problem $\abs{Q(x)-\xi}< \epsilon$ for a generic ternary form $Q$ is $\abs{x}\ll \epsilon^{-1}$. We also establish…

In this note, we consider the orbits $\{pu(n^{1+\gamma})|n\in\mathbb N\}$ in $\Gamma\backslash\text{PSL}(2,\mathbb R)$, where $\Gamma$ is a non-uniform lattice in $\text{PSL}(2,\mathbb R)$ and $u(t)$ is the standard unipotent group in…

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…

In this paper, we study a shrinking target problem with target at infinity in a homogeneous space of a semisimple algebraic group from the representation-theoretic point of view. Let $\rho:\mathbf G\to\mathbf{GL}(V)$ be an irreducible…

We study invariant probability measures on the homogeneous space $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb R)/\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb Z)$ for the action of subgroups of $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb R)$ of the form $SF$ where $F$ is generated by one parameter…

For a finitely generated group $G$, the \emph{Diophantine problem} over $G$ is the algorithmic problem of deciding whether a given equation $W(z_1,z_2,\ldots,z_k) = 1$ (perhaps restricted to a fixed subclass of equations) has a solution in…

We prove two generalizations of Furstenberg's Diophantine result regarding density of an orbit of an irrational point in the one-torus under the action of multiplication by a non-lacunary multiplicative semi-group of $\mathbb{N}$. We show…

In this paper, we give a definition of Diophantine points of type $\gamma$ for $\gamma\geq0$ in a homogeneous space $G/\Gamma$, and compute the Hausdorff dimension of the subset of points which are not Diophantine of type $\gamma$ when $G$…

We discuss the problem of finding optimal exponents in Diophantine estimates involving one real number and, in some cases where such an exponent is known, present some properties of the corresponding extremal numbers.

We prove an effective estimate for the counting function of Diophantine approximants on the sphere S$^n$. We use homogeneous dynamics on the space of orthogonal lattices, in particular effective equidistribution results and non-divergence…
