We introduce a geometric-arithmetic approach to the analysis of the Flint Hills series, linking its convergence behavior to the irrationality measure of pi. The framework highlights the interplay between the distribution of near-multiples…

It is unknown whether the Flint-Hills series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n^3\sin^2(n)}$ converges. Alekseyev (2011) connected this question to the irrationality measure of $\pi$, that $\mu(\pi) > \frac{5}{2}$ would imply divergence of the…

It is not known whether the Flint Hills series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^3\cdot\sin(n)^2}$ converges. We show that this question is closely related to the irrationality measure of $\pi$, denoted $\mu(\pi)$. In particular, convergence…

In this paper, we establish hybrid results on Diophantine approximation with primes from short intervals. In particular, we prove the following result in a slightly modified form: If $\alpha$ is an irrational number having a continued…

Consider two series $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\sin^n\pi\theta n}{n^\alpha},\quad\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\cos^n\pi\theta n}{n^\alpha}.$$ We show that number-theoretical properties of $\theta$ have a strong effect on the convergence when…

We outline a proof of an analogue of Khintchine's Theorem in R^2, where the ordinary height is replaced by a distance function satisfying an irrationality condition as well as certain decay and symmetry conditions.

In this paper we study a family of limsup sets that are defined using iterated function systems. Our main result is an analogue of Khintchine's theorem for these sets. We then apply this result to the topic of intrinsic Diophantine…

We study Diophantine approximation in completions of functions fields over finite fields, and in particular in fields of formal Laurent series over finite fields. We introduce a Lagrange spectrum for the approximation by orbits of quadratic…

The objective of this paper is to (partially) address the issue of finding an analogue to Khintchine's theorem for IFS Fractals. We study the convergence case for Diophantine approximations, and show an improved result for higher…

In this paper, we explore several threads arising from our recent joint work on arithmetic holonomy bounds, which were originally devised to prove new irrationality results based on the method of Ap\'ery limits. We propose a new method to…

In this note, we study the flint hills series of the form \begin{align} \sum \limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(\sin^2n) n^3}\nonumber \end{align} via a certain method. The method essentially works by erecting certain pillars sufficiently…

We use the theory of arithmetic quotients of the Bruhat-Tits tree developed by Serre and others to obtain Dirichlet-style theorems for Diophantine approximation on global function fields. This approach allows us to find sharp values for the…

Diophantine approximation is the problem of approximating a real number by rational numbers. We propose a version of this in which the numerators are approximately related to the denominators by a Laurent polynomial. Our definition is…

By exploring the theory of Guillera-Rogers, we evaluate some infinite series whose summands are quadratic irrationals, in terms of $\pi$ and special values of Dirichlet $L$-functions $ L_d(2)\equiv L(2,(\frac…

Cut and project sets are obtained by taking an irrational slice of a lattice and projecting it to a lower dimensional subspace, and are fully characterised by the shape of the slice (window) and the choice of the lattice. In this context we…

It is known in the case of the Stieltjes transform that evaluating the integral by expanding the kernel of transformation followed by term by term integration leads to an infinite series of divergent integrals. Moreover, it is known that…
