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…
The idea to use classical hypergeometric series and, in particular, well-poised hypergeometric series in diophantine problems of the values of the polylogarithms has led to several novelties in number theory and neighbouring areas of…
For each integer $n\geq 1$ we consider the unique polynomials $P, Q\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$ of smallest degree $n$ that are solutions of the equation $P(x)x^{n+1}+Q(x)(x+1)^{n+1}=1$. We derive numerous properties of these polynomials and their…
Many results related to quantitative problems in the metric theory of Diophantine approximation are asymptotic, such as the number of rational solutions to certain inequalities grows with the same rate almost everywhere modulo an asymptotic…
We prove the existence of S-integral solutions of simultaneous diophantine inequalities for pairs (Q,L) involving one quadratic form and one linear form satisfying some arithmetico-geometric conditions. The proof uses strong approximation…
In this paper we consider Diophantine equations of the form $f(x)=g(y)$ where $f$ has simple rational roots and $g$ has rational coefficients. We give strict conditions for the cases where the equation has infinitely many solutions in…
In this paper we consider the Diophantine equation \begin{align*}b^k +\left(a+b\right)^k &+ \cdots + \left(a\left(x-1\right) + b\right)^k=\\ &=d^l + \left(c+d\right)^l + \cdots + \left(c\left(y-1\right) + d\right)^l, \end{align*} where…
Duffin and Schaeffer have generalized the classical theorem of Khintchine in metric Diophantine approximation in the case of any error function under the assumption that all the rational approximants are irreducible. This result is extended…
Using methods developed in multivariate splines, we present an explicit formula for discrete truncated powers, which are defined as the number of non-negative integer solutions of linear Diophantine equations. We further use the formula to…
We establish Diophantine inequalities for the fractional parts of generalized polynomials $f$, in particular for sequences $\nu(n)=\lfloor n^c\rfloor+n^k$ with $c>1$ a non-integral real number and $k\in\mathbb{N}$, as well as for $\nu(p)$…
We discuss some easy statements dealing with linear inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Surprisingly, we did not find some of them in the literature.
Motivated by questions in cryptography, we look for diophantine equations that are hard to solve but for which determining the number of solutions is easy.
We compute the Hausdorff dimension of sets of very well approximable vectors on rational quadrics. We use ubiquitous systems and the geometry of locally symmetric spaces. As a byproduct we obtain the Hausdorff dimension of the set of rays…
While teaching a course on integral equations, I noticed that a straightforward combination of Neumann series and Fourier series for the resolvent (or the solution) of an integral equation has good approximation qualities. This short…
We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…
In recent years, the ergodic theory of group actions on homogeneous spaces has played a significant role in the metric theory of Diophantine approximation. We survey some recent developments with special emphasis on Diophantine properties…
We discuss several open problems in Diophantine approximation. Among them there are famous Littlewood's and Zaremba's conjectures as well as some new and not so famous problems.
This paper goes back to a famous problem of Mahler in metrical Diophantine approximation. The problem has been settled by Sprindzuk and subsequently improved by Alan Baker and Vasili Bernik. In particular, Bernik's result establishes a…
