Let $E \subseteq R^n$ be a closed set of Hausdorff dimension $\alpha$. For $m \geq n$, let $\{B_1,\ldots,B_k\}$ be $n \times (m-n)$ matrices. We prove that if the system of matrices $B_j$ is non-degenerate in a suitable sense, $\alpha$ is…

For any real pair i, j geq 0 with i+j=1 let Bad(i, j) denote the set of (i, j)-badly approximable pairs. That is, Bad(i, j) consists of irrational vectors x:=(x_1, x_2) in R^2 for which there exists a positive constant c(x) such that max…

This paper is motivated by two problems in the theory of Diophantine approximation, namely, Davenport's problem regarding badly approximable points on submanifolds of a Euclidean space and Schmidt's problem regarding the intersections of…

We extend the parametric geometry of numbers (initiated by Schmidt and Summerer, and deepened by Roy) to Diophantine approximation for systems of $m$ linear forms in $n$ variables, and establish a new connection to the metric theory via a…

In this paper we develop a general theory of metric Diophantine approximation for systems of linear forms. A new notion of `weak non-planarity' of manifolds and more generally measures on the space of $m\times n$ matrices over $\Bbb R$ is…

We solve the problem of giving sharp asymptotic bounds on the Hausdorff dimensions of certain sets of badly approximable matrices, thus improving results of Broderick and Kleinbock (preprint 2013) as well as Weil (preprint 2013), and…

In this paper we establish a general form of the Mass Transference Principle for systems of linear forms conjectured in [1]. We also present a number of applications of this result to problems in Diophantine approximation. These include a…

We study the cohomology of symbolic dynamical systems called homshifts: they are the nearest-neighbour $\mathbb{Z}^d$ shifts of finite type whose adjacency rules are the same in every direction. Building on the work of Klaus Schmidt…

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…

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…

Approximation in this paper is of vectors on the unit $d$-cube by the projection of integer lattice points onto the same cube. We define badly approximable vectors on a rational quadratic variety and show that sets of these vectors, which…
