We examine caloric measures $\omega$ on general domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1} = \mathbb{R}^n\times\mathbb{R}$ (space $\times$ time) from the perspective of geometric measure theory. On one hand, we give a direct proof of a consequence of a…
The goal of this paper is to develop the theory of weighted Diophantine approximation of rational numbers to $p$-adic numbers. Firstly, we establish complete analogues of Khintchine's theorem, the Duffin-Schaeffer theorem and the…
This paper presents bounds for the best approximation, with respect to the Hausdorff metric, of a convex body $K$ by a circumscribed polytope $P$ with a given number of facets. These bounds are of particular interest if $K$ is elongated. To…
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 prove that almost all real numbers (with respect to Lebesgue measure) are approximated by the convergents of their $\beta$-expansions with the exponential order $\beta^{-n}$. Moreover, the Hausdorff dimensions of sets of the real numbers…
Given two polygonal curves $P$ and $Q$ defined by $n$ and $m$ vertices with $m\leq n$, we show that the discrete Fr\'echet distance in 1D cannot be approximated within a factor of $2-\varepsilon$ in $\mathcal{O}((nm)^{1-\delta})$ time for…
Fix an irrational number $\theta$. For a real number $\tau >0$, consider the numbers $y$ satisfying that for all large number $Q$, there exists an integer $1\leq n\leq Q$, such that $\|n\theta-y\|<Q^{-\tau}$, where $\|\cdot\|$ is the…
While there is extensive literature on approximation, deterministic as well as random, of general convex bodies $K$ in the symmetric difference metric, or other metrics arising from intrinsic volumes, very little is known for corresponding…
In this paper we obtain the Lebesgue and Hausdorff measure results for the set of vectors satisfying infinitely many fully non-linear Diophantine inequalities. The set is associated with a class of linear inhomogeneous partial differential…
For a C^{1+\alpha} diffeomorphism f preserving a hyperbolic ergodic SRB measure \mu, Katok's remarkable results assert that \mu can be approximated by a sequence of hyperbolic sets \{\Lambda_n\}_{n\geq1}. In this paper, we prove the…
In this paper we construct a new family of sets based on Diophantine approximation in the Euclidean space, and consider their applications in several problems in harmonic analysis. Our first application is on the Hausdorff dimension of our…
Given $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\tau>\frac1n$, let $\mathcal{S}_n(\tau)$ denote the classical set of $\tau$-approximable points in $\mathbb{R}^n$, which consists of ${\bf x}\in \mathbb{R}^n$ that lie within distance $q^{-\tau-1}$ from the…
In a paper from 2010, Budarina, Dickinson and Levesley studied the rational approximation properties of curves parametrized by polynomials with integral coefficients in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. Assuming the dimension is at…
Following Schmidt, Thurnheer and Bugeaud-Kristensen, we study how Dirichlet's theorem on linear forms needs to be modified when one requires that the vectors of coefficients of the linear forms make a bounded acute angle with respect to a…
We calculate the almost sure Hausdorff dimension of the random covering set $\limsup_{n\to\infty}(g_n + \xi_n)$ in $d$-dimensional torus $\mathbb T^d$, where the sets $g_n\subset\mathbb T^d$ are parallelepipeds, or more generally, linear…
We establish several new inequalities linking classical exponents of Diophantine approximation associated to a real vector $\underline{\xi}=(\xi,\xi^{2},\ldots,\xi^{N})$, in various dimensions $N$. We thereby obtain variants, and partly…
For any $\beta>1$, let $T_\beta$ be the classical $\beta$-transformations. Fix $x_0\in[0,1]$ and a nonnegative real number $\hat{v}$, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of real numbers $x\in[0,1]$ with the property that, for…
Approximating convex bodies is a fundamental question in geometry, which has a wide variety of applications. Given a convex body $K$ in $\textbf{R}^d$ for fixed $d$, the objective is to minimize the number of facets of an approximating…
Let f in Q[z] be a polynomial of degree d at least two. The associated canonical height \hat{h}_f is a certain real-valued function on Q that returns zero precisely at preperiodic rational points of f. Morton and Silverman conjectured in…
We highlight a connection between Diophantine approximation and the lower Assouad dimension by using information about the latter to show that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of badly approximable points that lie in certain non-conformal…
