We discuss several open problems in Diophantine approximation. Among them there are famous Littlewood's and Zaremba's conjectures as well as some new and not so famous problems.

These notes represent an extended version of a talk I gave for the participants of the IMO 2009 and other interested people. We introduce diophantine equations and show evidence that it can be hard to solve them. Then we demonstrate how one…

In this short note we have proved an enhanced version of a theorem of Lorentz [1] and its generalization to the multivariate case which gives a non- uniform estimate of degree of approximation by a polynomial with positive coefficients. The…

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be real numbers such that $1$, $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$. A classical result of Dirichlet asserts that there are infinitely many triples of integers $(x_0,x_1,x_2)$ such that…

We draw connections between the various conjectures which are included in G. R\'emond's generalized Lehmer problems. Specifically, we show that the degree one form of his conjecture for the multiplicative group is, in a sense, almost as…

There are abundant results on Diophantine approximation over fields of positive characteristic (see the survey papers [13, 25]), but there is very little information about simultaneous approximation. In this paper, we develop a technique of…

The input to the distant representatives problem is a set of $n$ objects in the plane and the goal is to find a representative point from each object while maximizing the distance between the closest pair of points. When the objects are…

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…

We give a characterization of all three points in $\mathbb R^4$ with integer coordinates which are at the same Euclidean distance apart. In three dimension the problem is characterized in terms of solutions of the Diophantine equations…

In this paper we develop a general theory of metric Diophantine approximation for systems of linear forms. A new notion of `weak non-planarity' of manifolds and more generally measures on the space of $m\times n$ matrices over $\Bbb R$ is…

We provide a lower bound for the ratio between the ordinary and uniform exponent of both simultaneous Diophantine approximation and Diophantine approximation by linear forms in any dimension. This lower bound was conjectured by Schmidt and…

In a ground-breaking work \cite{BY}, Beresnevich and Yang recently proved Khintchine's theorem in simultaneous Diophantine approximation for nondegenerate manifolds resolving a long-standing problem in the theory of Diophantine…

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…

The overall aim of this note is to initiate a "manifold" theory for metric Diophantine approximation on the limit sets of Kleinian groups. We investigate the notions of singular and extremal limit points within the geometrically finite…

This paper is motivated by recent applications of Diophantine approximation in electronics, in particular, in the rapidly developing area of Interference Alignment. Some remarkable advances in this area give substantial credit to the…

With a view to establishing measure theoretic approximation properties of Delone sets, we study a setup which arises naturally in the problem of averaging almost periodic functions along exponential sequences. In this setting, we establish…

This note pushes further the discussion about relations between Dirichlet improvable, badly approximable and singular points held in recent joint work with Beresnevich, Guan, Velani and Ramirez, by considering Diophantine sets extending the…

Metric Diophantine approximation in its classical form is the study of how well almost all real numbers can be approximated by rationals. There is a long history of results which give partial answers to this problem, but there are still…

Given an increasing integer sequence $(a_n)$, a real number $\alpha$, and a sequence $\psi(n)$, we study the set $W$ of real numbers $\gamma$ for which $a_n\alpha - \gamma$ is a distance less than $\psi(n)$ away from an integer. This is…

The general, multidimensional barrier crossing problem for diffusive processes under the action of conservative forces is studied with the goal of developing tractable approximations. Particular attention is given to the effect of different…
