The Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture is a central open problem in metric number theory. Let $\psi~\mathbb{N} \mapsto \mathbb{R}$ be a non-negative function, and set $\mathcal{E}_n :=\bigcup \left( \frac{a - \psi(n)}{n},\frac{a+\psi(n)}{n}…

Duffin and Schaeffer have generalized the classical theorem of Khintchine in metric Diophantine approximation in the case of any error function under the assumption that all the rational approximants are irreducible. This result is extended…

For all $k\geq 2$, we provide almost-sharp quantitative results for the $k$-dimensional Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture, analogous to recent developments in the 1-D case of Koukoulopoulos-Maynard-Yang. In particular, for…

The Duffin-Schaeffer conjecture is a fundamental unsolved problem in metric number theory. It asserts that for every non-negative function $\psi:~\mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ for almost all reals $x$ there are infinitely many coprime…

Many results related to quantitative problems in the metric theory of Diophantine approximation are asymptotic, such as the number of rational solutions to certain inequalities grows with the same rate almost everywhere modulo an asymptotic…

The inhomogeneous Khintchine-Groshev Theorem is a classical generalization of Khintchine's Theorem in Diophantine approximation, by approximating points in $\mathbb{R}^m$ by systems of linear forms in $n$ variables. Analogous to the…

Given quantities $\Delta_1,\Delta_2,\dots\geqslant 0$, a fundamental problem in Diophantine approximation is to understand which irrational numbers $x$ have infinitely many reduced rational approximations $a/q$ such that $|x-a/q|<\Delta_q$.…

In this chapter we introduce the theory of Diophantine approximation via a series of basic examples from information theory relevant to wireless communications. In particular, we discuss Dirichlet's theorem, badly approximable points,…

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…

Under the assumption that the approximating function $\psi$ is monotonic, the classical Khintchine-Groshev theorem provides an elegant probabilistic criterion for the Lebesgue measure of the set of $\psi$-approximable matrices in $\R^{mn}$.…

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…

Let $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathbb{R}_{\geqslant1}$ be a countable set such that $\limsup_{x\to\infty}\frac{1}{\log x}\sum_{\alpha\in\mathcal{A}\cap[1,x]}\frac{1}{\alpha}>0$. We prove that, for every $\varepsilon>0$, there exist infinitely many…

The Duffin--Schaeffer Conjecture answers a question on how well one can approximate irrationals by rational numbers in reduced form (an imposed condition) where the accuracy of the approximation depends on the rational number. It can be…
