We investigate the problem of best simultaneous Diophantine approximation under a constraint on the denominator, as proposed by Jurkat. New lower estimates for optimal approximation constants are given in terms of critical determinants of…

Erd\H{o}s proved that any real number can be written as a sum, and a product, of two Liouville numbers. Motivated by these results, we study sumsets of classes of real numbers with prescribed (or bounded) irrationality exponents. We show…

In this paper we study a quantitative notion of exactness within Diophantine approximation. Given $\Psi:(0,\infty)\to (0,\infty)$ and $\omega:(0,\infty)\to (0,1)$ satisfying $\lim_{q\to\infty}\omega(q)=0$, we study the set of points, which…

We investigate the metric theory of Diophantine approximation on missing-digit fractals. In particular, we establish analogues of Khinchin's theorem and Gallagher's theorem, as well as inhomogeneous generalisations.

Let $Q$ be an infinite subset of $\mathbb{Z}$, let $\Psi: \mathbb{Z} \rightarrow [0,\infty)$ be positive on $Q$, and let $\theta \in \mathbb{R}$. Define $$ E(Q,\Psi,\theta) = \{ x \in \mathbb{R} : \| q x - \theta \| \leq \Psi(q) \text{ for…

We provide an upper bound on the uniform exponent of approximation to a triple (xi, xi^2, xi^3) by rational numbers with the same denominator, valid for any transcendental real number xi. This upper bound refines a previous result of…

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…

A paradigm for a global algebraic number theory of the reals is formulated with the purpose of providing a unified setting for algebraic and transcendental number theory. This is achieved through the study of subgroups of nonstandard models…

A rational Diophantine m-tuple is a set of m nonzero rationals such that the product of any two of them increased by 1 is a perfect square. The first rational Diophantine quadruple was found by Diophantus, while Euler proved that there are…

In 1984, K. Mahler asked how well elements in the Cantor middle third set can be approximated by rational numbers from that set, and by rational numbers outside of that set. We consider more general missing digit sets $C$ and construct…
