We provide an algorithm to approximate a finitely supported discrete measure $\mu$ by a measure $\nu_{N}$ corresponding to a set of $N$ points so that the total variation between $\mu$ and $\nu_N$ has an upper bound. As a consequence if…

Letting $(t_n)$ denote the Thue-Morse sequence with values $0, 1$, we note that the Woods-Robbins product $$ \prod_{n \geq 0} \left(\frac{2n+1}{2n+2}\right)^{(-1)^{t_n}} = 2^{-1/2} $$ involves a rational function in $n$ and the $\pm 1$…

This paper introduces some methods to determine the simultaneous approximation constants of a class of well approximable numbers $\zeta_{1},\zeta_{2},...,\zeta_{k}$. The approach relies on results on the connection between the set of all…

We introduce and study two analogs of one of the best known sequence in Mathematics : Thue-Morse sequence. The first analog is concerned with the parity of number of runs of 1's in the binary representation of nonnegative integers. The…

The Thue--Morse sequence is a prototypical automatic sequence found in diverse areas of mathematics, and in computer science. We study occurrences of factors $w$ within this sequence, more precisely, the sequence of gaps between consecutive…

Every Laurent series in $\mathbb{F}_q\left(\left(t^{-1}\right)\right)$ has a continued fraction expansion whose partial quotients are polynomials. De Mathan and Teuli\'e proved that the degrees of the partial quotients of the left-shifts of…

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…

For any abelian group $A$, we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of $A$-extensions $K/\mathbb{Q}$ of bounded discriminant such that the associated norm one torus $R_{K/\mathbb{Q}}^1 \mathbb{G}_m$ satisfies weak approximation. We are…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\xi$ an irrational $p$-adic number. Its multiplicative irrationality exponent ${{\mu^{\times}}} (\xi)$ is the supremum of the real numbers ${{\mu^{\times}}}$ for which the inequality $$ |b \xi - a|_{p} \leq |…

This is an expanded version of our earlier paper. Let the $n$th partial sum of the Taylor series $e = \sum_{r=0}^{\infty} 1/r!$ be $A_n/n!$, and let $p_k/q_k$ be the $k$th convergent of the simple continued fraction for $e$. Using a recent…

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.…

In 1908 Thue (1) showed that algebraic numbers of the special form $\xi =\sqrt[n]{\frac{a}{b}}$ can, for every positive $\epsilon$, only be sharply approximated by finitely many rational numbers $\frac{p}{q}$ with the following inequality…

We consider a robust formulation, introduced by Krause et al. (2008), of the classical cardinality constrained monotone submodular function maximization problem, and give the first constant factor approximation results. The robustness…

We study the problem of minimizing the number of critical simplices from the point of view of inapproximability and parameterized complexity. We first show inapproximability of Min-Morse Matching within a factor of…

We consider a Laurent series defined by infinite products $g_u(t) = \prod_{n=0}^\infty (1 + ut^{-2^n})$, where $u\in \mathbb{F}$ is a parameter and $\mathbb{F}$ is a field. We show that for all $u\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{-1,0,1\}$ the series…

Explicit formulas for complexity and unique invariant measure of the period-doubling subshift can be derived from those for the Thue-Morse subshift, obtained by Brlek, De Luca and Varricchio, and Dekking. In this note we give direct proofs…

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…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb{Z}$ that is not a Dirac mass and that has finite support. We prove that if the coefficients of a monic polynomial $f(x)\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ of degree $n$ are chosen independently at random…

We call a badly approximable number $decaying$ if, roughly, the Lagrange constants of integer multiples of that number decay as fast as possible. In this terminology, a question of Y. Bugeaud ('15) asks to find the Hausdorff dimension of…

Motivated by a wonderful paper by Ngoc Ai Van Nguyen, Anthony Po\"els and Damien Roy, where a powerful method was introduced, we prove a criterion for a vector $\pmb{\alpha}\in \mathbb{R}^d$ to be a badly approximable vector. Moreover we…
