We study the minimal gap statistic for fractional parts of sequences of the form $\mathcal A^\alpha = \{\alpha a(n)\}$ where $\mathcal A = \{a(n)\}$ is a sequence of distinct of integers. Assuming that the additive energy of the sequence is…

We show that for almost any vector $v$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that the dimension of the set of vectors $w$ satisfying $\liminf_{k\to\infty} k^{1/n}<kv-w> \ge \epsilon$ (where $<\cdot>$ denotes…

Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) is a popular method for approximate inference in generative models with intractable but easy-to-sample likelihood. It constructs an approximate posterior distribution by finding parameters for which…

For a non-negative function $\psi: ~ \N \mapsto \R$, let $W(\psi)$ denote the set of real numbers $x$ for which the inequality $|n x - a| < \psi(n)$ has infinitely many coprime solutions $(a,n)$. The Duffin--Schaeffer conjecture, one of the…

In 1996 N. Chevallier proved a beautiful lemma which connects Diophantine approximation and multidimensional generalizations of the famous Three Distance Theorem. Using this lemma we show how known results about multidimensional three…

For a finite set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, let $\Delta(A)$ denote the spread of $A$, which is the ratio of the maximum pairwise distance to the minimum pairwise distance. For a positive integer $n$, let $\gamma_d(n)$ denote the largest…

Let $\alpha$ be a real number greater than $1$. We establish an effective lower bound for the distance between an integral power of $\alpha$ and its nearest integer.

We study the problem of best approximations of a vector $\alpha\in{\mathbb R}^n$ by rational vectors of a lattice $\Lambda\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ whose common denominator is bounded. To this end we introduce successive minima for a periodic…

An important result of H. Weyl states that for every sequence $\left(a_{n}\right)_{n\geq 1}$ of distinct positive integers the sequence of fractional parts of $\left(a_{n} \alpha \right)_{n \geq1}$ is uniformly distributed modulo one for…

We prove a Khintchine result for convergence of a multiplicative Diophantine set with restricted denominators on an arbitrary non-degenerate line. Specifically, given sequences of real numbers $\{a_n\}_{n\in\mathbb{N}},\,…

Let $\Lambda$ be a uniformly discrete set and $S$ be a compact set in $R$. We prove that if there exists a bounded sequence of functions in Paley--Wiener space $PW_S$, which approximates $\delta-$functions on $\Lambda$ with $l^2-$error $d$,…

Melvin models with irrational twist parameter provide an interesting example of conformal field theories with non-compact target space, and localized states which are arbitrarily close to being delocalized. We study the torus partition sum…

We give upper and lower bounds for Diophantine exponents measuring how well a point in the plane can be approximated by points in the orbit of a lattice $\Gamma<\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ acting linearly on $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our method gives…

Weighted discrete Hilbert transforms $(a_n)_n \mapsto \sum_n a_n v_n/(z-\gamma_n)$ from $\ell^2_v$ to a weighted $L^2$ space are studied, with $\Gamma=(\gamma_n)$ a sequence of distinct points in the complex plane and $v=(v_n)$ a…

We prove a result in the area of twisted Diophantine approximation related to the theory of Schmidt games. In particular, under certain restrictions we give a affirmative answer to the analogue in this setting of a famous conjecture of…

The main goal of this note is to develop a metrical theory of Diophantine approximation within the framework of the de Mathan-Teulie Conjecture, also known as the `Mixed Littlewood Conjecture'. Let p be a prime. A consequence of our main…

We show that the sets of weighted badly approximable vectors in $\Bbb R^n$ are winning sets of certain games, which are modifications of $(\alpha,\beta)$-games introduced by W. Schmidt in 1966. The latter winning property is stable with…

In 1962, Gallagher proved an higher dimensional version of Khintchine's theorem on Diophantine approximation. Gallagher's theorem states that for any non-increasing approximation function $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to (0,1/2)$ with…

In this paper, we study Diophantine exponents $w_n$ and $w_n ^{*}$ for Laurent series over a finite field. Especially, we deal with the case $n=2$, that is, quadratic approximation. We first show that the range of the function $w_2-w_2…

In a series of recent papers, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer developed a new theory by which they recover all major generic inequalities relating exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and find new ones. Given a…
