This note formulates a conjecture generalizing both the abc conjecture of Masser-Oesterl\'e and the author's diophantine conjecture for algebraic points of bounded degree. It also shows that the new conjecture is implied by the earlier…

We prove a Diophantine approximation inequality for rational points in varieties of any dimension, in the direction of Vojta's conjecture with truncated counting functions. Our results also provide a bound towards the $abc$ conjecture which…

This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…

The $abc$ conjecture predicts a highly non trivial upper bound for the height of an algebraic point in terms of its discriminant and its intersection with a fixed divisor of the projective line counted without multiplicity. We describe the…

Following the work of Waldschmidt, we investigate problems in Diophantine approximation on abelian varieties. First we show that a conjecture of Waldschmidt for a given simple abelian variety is equivalent to a well-known Diophantine…

For varieties over global fields, weak approximation in the space of adelic points can fail. For a subvariety of an abelian variety one expects this failure is always explained by a finite descent obstruction, in the sense that the rational…

We define certain arithmetic derivatives on $\mathbb{Z}$ that respect the Leibniz rule, are additive for a chosen equation $a+b=c$, and satisfy a suitable non-degeneracy condition. Using Geometry of Numbers, we unconditionally show their…

Following N. Elkies ("ABC implies Mordell") we show that the abc conjecture of Masser-Oesterle implies an effective version of Siegel's theorem about integral points on algebraic curves, i.e. an upper bound for the S-integral points where…

In this paper, we introduce an algebro-geometric formulation for Faltings' theorem on diophantine approximation on abelian varieties using an improvement of Faltings-Wustholz observation over number fields. In fact, we prove that, for any…

Using the universal torsor method due to Salberger, we study the approximation of a general fixed point by rational points on split toric varieties. We prove that under certain geometric hypothesis the best approximations (in the sense of…

We solve a case of the Abelian Exponential-Algebraic Closedness Conjecture, a conjecture due to Bays and Kirby, building on work of Zilber, which predicts sufficient conditions for systems of equations involving algebraic operations and the…

The Bogomolov conjecture claims that a closed subvariety containing a dense subset of small points is a special kind of subvarieties. In the arithmetic setting over number fields, the Bogomolov conjecture for abelian varieties has already…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective split horospherical variety over a number field $k$ and $x\in X(k)$. Contingent on Vojta's conjecture, we construct a curve $C$ through $x$ such that (in a precise sense) rational points on $C$ approximate $x$…

In an earlier paper (joint with Min Ru), we proved a result on diophantine approximation to Cartier divisors, extending a 2011 result of P. Autissier. This was recently extended to certain closed subschemes (in place of divisors) by Ru and…

In this short note we show that the uniform abc-conjecture over number fields puts strong restrictions on the coordinates of rational points on elliptic curves. For the proof we use a variant of the uniform abc-conjecture over number fields…

We show a weak form of the function field version of Oesterle's abc conjecture. It asserts that, if $B$ is a complex projective connected curve, the number of intersection points, counted without multiplicities, of a fixed divisor $D$ of…

In this paper, we prove a lemma on logarithmic derivative for holomorphic curves from annuli into K\"{a}hler compact manifold and. As its application, a second main theorem for holomophic curves from annuli into semi abelian varieties…

This work is motivated by problems on simultaneous Diophantine approximation on manifolds, namely, establishing Khintchine and Jarnik type theorems for submanifolds of R^n. These problems have attracted a lot of interest since Kleinbock and…

In a paper from 2010, Budarina, Dickinson and Levesley studied the rational approximation properties of curves parametrized by polynomials with integral coefficients in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. Assuming the dimension is at…

The present paper analyzes the discrepancy of distribution of rational points on general semisimple algebraic group varieties. The results include mean-square, almost sure, and uniform discrepancy estimates with explicit error bounds, which…
