We present a method for constructing global analytical expressions that approximate a function over its entire range. These approximations not only mirror the original function as accurately as desired, but are purposefully created to…
We carry out an arithmetical study of analytic functions $f: [0,1] \to [0,1]$ that by restriction induce a bijection $\mathbb{Q} \cap [0,1] \to \mathbb{Q} \cap [0,1]$. The existence of such functions shows that, unless $f(x)$ has some…
The main purpose of this work is to characterize derivations through functional equations. This work consists of five chapters. In the first one, we summarize the most important notions and results from the theory of functional equations.…
In 1926 Khintchine introduced a topological argument proving the existence of uncountably many nontrivial singular linear forms of $n \geq 2$ variables. Throughout the years, this argument has been extensively modified and generalized. Most…
Fix $d\in\mathbb N$, and let $S\subseteq\mathbb R^d$ be either a real-analytic manifold or the limit set of an iterated function system (for example, $S$ could be the Cantor set or the von Koch snowflake). An $extrinsic$ Diophantine…
In 2004, J.C. Tong found bounds for the approximation quality of a regular continued fraction convergent of a rational number, expressed in bounds for both the previous and next approximation. We sharpen his results with a geometric method…
Inspired by a problem proposed by Mahler, we will address the following related question, 'How well can irrationals in a missing digit set be approximated by rationals with polynomial denominators?' and prove some related results. To…
In this work the implicit function theorem is used for searching local symbolic resolution of differential equations. General results of existence for first order equations are proven and some examples, one relative to cavitation in a…
The title equation, where $p>3$ is a prime number $\not\equiv 7 \pmod 8$, $q$ is an odd prime number and $x,y,n$ are positive integers with $x,y$ relatively prime, is studied. When $p\equiv 3\pmod 8$, we prove (Theorem 2.3) that there are…
In the thirties of the last century, I. M. Vinogradov proved that the inequality $||p\alpha||\le p^{-1/5+\varepsilon}$ has infinitely prime solutions $p$, where $||.||$ denotes the distance to a nearest integer. This result has subsequently…
Markoff-Lagrange spectrum uncovers exotic topological properties of Diophantine approximation. We investigate asymptotic properties of geometric progressions modulo one and observe significantly analogous results on the set \[ {\mathcal…
Prompted by an observation about the integral of exponential functions of the form $f(x)=\lambda e^{\alpha x}$, we investigate the possibility to exactly integrate families of functions generated from a given function by scaling or by…
We develop machinery to explicitly determine, in many instances, when the difference $x^2-y^n$ is divisible only by powers of a given fixed prime. This combines a wide variety of techniques from Diophantine approximation (bounds for linear…
In this paper, we prove that the discrete Copson inequality (E.T. Copson, \emph{Notes on a series of positive terms}, J. London Math. Soc., 2 (1927), 49-51) of one-dimension in general cases admits an improvement. In fact we study the…
The present paper is concerned with equidistribution results for certain flows on homogeneous spaces and related questions in Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we answer in the affirmative, a question raised by Kleinbock, Shi and Weiss…

We shall present effective approximations measures for certain infinite products related to $q$-exponential function. There are two main targets. First we shall prove an explicit irrationality measure result for the values of…
Several questions of approximation theory are discussed: 1) can one approximate stably in $L^\infty$ norm $f^\prime$ given approximation $f_\delta, \parallel f_\delta - f \parallel_{L^\infty} < \delta$, of an unknown smooth function $f(x)$,…

Given two relatively prime numbers $a$ and $b$, it is known that exactly one of the two Diophantine equations has a nonnegative integral solution $(x,y)$: $$ ax + by \ =\ \frac{(a-1)(b-1)}{2}\quad \mbox{ and }\quad 1 + ax + by \ =\…
