We prove results concerning the joint limiting distribution of the renewal time of denominators and consecutive digits of random irrational numbers in the case of continued fractions with even partial quotients, with odd partial quotients,…

In the paper we provide measure estimates for the set of numbers whose sequence of products of continued fraction partial quotients $M_n = a_1 \ldots a_n$ has exponential growth with rate close to the one predicted by Khintchine's theorem,…

We prove versions of Khintchine's Theorem (1924) for approximations by rational numbers whose numerators lie in randomly chosen sets of integers, and we explore the extent to which the monotonicity assumption can be removed. Roughly…

Our main result is that any real cubic algebraic number has a continued fraction expansion with polynomial coefficients. Some generalizations are mentioned.

We give a simple proof of a recent result by J. Schleischitz dealing with a counterexample to the uniform Littlewood conjecture. Our construction is based on simple properties of Fibonacci numbers.

We discuss the problem of finding optimal exponents in Diophantine estimates involving one real number and, in some cases where such an exponent is known, present some properties of the corresponding extremal numbers.

Let $\mathbb{Q}(\alpha)$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\beta)$ be linearly disjoint number fields and let $\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$ be their compositum. We prove that the first-degree prime ideals of $\mathbb{Z}[\theta]$ may almost always be constructed in…

For any prime $p$ and real number and $\alpha$, the $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture due to de Mathan and Teuli\'e asserts that \[\inf_{|m|\ge1}|m|_p\cdot |m|\cdot |\left\langle\alpha m\right\rangle|=0.\] Above, $|m|$ is the usual absolute…

We prove a refined version of Markov's theorem in Diophantine approximation. More precisely, we characterize completely the set of irrationals $x$ such that $\left|x-\frac{p}{q}\right|<\frac{1}{3q^2}$ has only finitely many rational…

We establish a Liouville type theorem for the fractional Lane-Emden system: \begin{eqnarray*} \left\{\begin{array}{l@{\quad }l} (-\Delta)^\alpha u=v^q&{\rm in}\,\,\R^N,\\ (-\Delta)^\alpha v=u^p&{\rm in}\,\,\R^N, \end{array} \right.…

A partition of the positive integers into sets $A$ and $B$ {\em avoids} a set $S\subset\N$ if no two distinct elements in the same part have a sum in $S$. If the partition is unique, $S$ is {\em uniquely avoidable.} For any irrational…

Let $U$ be a bounded open subset of the complex plane and let $A_{\alpha}(U)$ denote the set of functions analytic on $U$ that also belong to the little Lipschitz class with Lipschitz exponent $\alpha$. It is shown that if $A_{\alpha}(U)$…

Let $\alpha_1,\alpha_2$ be non-zero algebraic numbers such that $\frac{\log \alpha_2}{\log\alpha_1}\notin\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\beta$ be a quadratic irrational number. In this article, we prove that the values of two relatively prime…

A fundamental challenge within the metric theory of continued fractions involves quantifying sets of real numbers, when represented using continued fractions, exhibit partial quotients that grow at specific rates. For any positive function…

We introduce here a general framework for studying continued fraction expansions for complex numbers and establish some results on the convergence of the corresponding sequence of convergents. For continued fraction expansions with partial…

Diophantine approximation explores how well irrational numbers can be approximated by rationals, with foundational results by Dirichlet, Hurwitz, and Liouville culminating in Roth's theorem. Schmidt's subspace theorem extends Roth's results…

The three gap theorem, also known as the Steinhaus conjecture or three distance theorem, states that the gaps in the fractional parts of $\alpha,2\alpha,\ldots, N\alpha$ take at most three distinct values. Motivated by a question of…

L\"uroth series, like regular continued fractions, provide an interesting identification of real numbers with infinite sequences of integers. These sequences give deep arithmetic and measure-theoretic properties of subsets of numbers…

For a tuple $(\theta_1,..,\theta_M)$ of complex number, buliding on the approximation techniques in earlier papers of this series, this paper engages in deducing lower estimates on the transcendence degree of the field generated by…

We study approximation in the unit interval by rational numbers whose numerators are selected randomly with certain probabilities. Previous work showed that an analogue of Khintchine's Theorem holds in a similar random model and raised the…
