Kurzweil's theorem ('55) is concerned with zero-one laws for well approximable targets in inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation under the badly approximable assumption. In this article, we prove the divergent part of a Kurzweil type…

We give a sufficient and necessary condition such that for almost all $s\in{\mathbb R}$ \[ \|n\theta-s\|<\psi(n)\qquad\text{for infinitely many}\ n\in{\mathbb N}, \] where $\theta$ is fixed and $\psi(n)$ is a positive, non-increasing…

A theorem of Kurzweil ('55) on inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation states that if $\theta$ is an irrational number, then the following are equivalent: (A) for every decreasing positive function $\psi$ such that $\sum_{q = 1}^\infty…

Given a monotonically decreasing $\psi: \mathbb{N} \to [0,\infty)$, Khintchine's Theorem provides an efficient tool to decide whether, for almost every $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$, there are infinitely many $(p,q) \in \mathbb{Z}^2$ such that…

We prove a multidimensional weighted analogue of the well-known theorem of Kurzweil (1955) in the metric theory of inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Let $A$ be matrix of real numbers, $\Psi$ an $n$-tuple of monotonic decreasing…

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 $\R^{mn}$.…

Let $E\subset [0,1]$ be a set that supports a probability measure $\mu$ with the property that $|\widehat{\mu}(t)|\ll (\log |t|)^{-A}$ for some constant $A>2.$ Let $\mathcal{A}=(q_n)_{n\in \N}$ be a positive, real-valued, lacunary sequence.…

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…

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…

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…

It is a classical result from Diophantine approximation that the set of badly approximable numbers has Lebesgue measure zero. In this paper we generalise this result to more general sequences of balls. Given a countable set of closed…

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…

We show that badly approximable vectors are exactly those that cannot, for any inhomogeneous parameter, be inhomogeneously approximated at every monotone divergent rate. This implies in particular that Kurzweil's Theorem cannot be…

Let $\alpha$ be an irrational real number. We show that the set of $\epsilon$-badly approximable numbers \[ \mathrm{Bad}^\varepsilon (\alpha) := \{x\in [0,1]\, : \, \liminf_{|q| \to \infty} |q| \cdot \| q\alpha -x \| \geq \varepsilon \} \]…

Recently, Ghosh \& Haynes \cite{HG} proved a Khintchine-type result for the problem of Diophantine approximation in certain projective spaces. In this note we complement their result by observing that a Jarn\'{\i}k-type result also holds…

We give several results related to inhomogeneous approximations to two real numbers and badly approximable numbers. Our results are related to classical theorems by A. Khintchine (1926) and to an original method invented by Y. Peres and W.…

Let $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}_{\ge0}$ be an arbitrary function from the positive integers to the non-negative reals. Consider the set $\mathcal{A}$ of real numbers $\alpha$ for which there are infinitely many reduced fractions $a/q$…

In 1958, Sz\"{u}sz proved an inhomogeneous version of Khintchine's theorem on Diophantine approximation. Sz\"{u}sz's theorem states that for any non-increasing approximation function $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to (0,1/2)$ with $\sum_q \psi(q)=\infty$…

Let $K$ denote the middle third Cantor set and ${\cal A}:= \{3^n : n = 0,1,2, >... \} $. Given a real, positive function $\psi$ let $ W_{\cal A}(\psi)$ denote the set of real numbers $x$ in the unit interval for which there exist infinitely…

Let (X,d) be a metric space and (\Omega, d) a compact subspace of X which supports a non-atomic finite measure m. We consider `natural' classes of badly approximable subsets of \Omega. Loosely speaking, these consist of points in \Omega…
