Let $\alpha$ be a Pisot number. Let $L(\alpha)$ be the largest positive number such that for some $\xi=\xi(\alpha)\in \mathbb R$ the limit points of the sequence of fractional parts $\{\xi \alpha^n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ all lie in the interval…
For $\lambda \in (1/2, 1)$ and $\alpha$, we consider sets of numbers $x$ such that for infinitely many $n$, $x$ is $2^{-\alpha n}$-close to some $\sum_{i=1}^n \omega_i \lambda^i$, where $\omega_i \in \{0,1\}$. These sets are in Falconer's…
In this paper, we establish hybrid results on Diophantine approximation with primes from short intervals. In particular, we prove the following result in a slightly modified form: If $\alpha$ is an irrational number having a continued…
We extend the key formula which intertwines multiplicative Markoff-Lagrange spectrum and symbolic dynamics. The proof uses complex analysis and elucidates the strategy of the problem. Moreover, the new method applies to a wide variety of…
The (classical) Lagrange spectrum is a closed subset of the positive real numbers defined in terms of diophantine approximation. Its structure is quite involved. This article describes a polynomial time algorithm to approximate it in…
Let $\mathscr{L}(S^1)$ be the Lagrange spectrum arising from intrinsic Diophantine approximation on the unit circle $S^1$ by its rational points. We give a complete description of the structure of $\mathscr{L}(S^1)$ below its smallest…
The Lagrange spectrum $\mathcal{L}$ and Markov spectrum $\mathcal{M}$ are subsets of the real line with complicated fractal properties that appear naturally in the study of Diophantine approximations. It is known that the Hausdorff…
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…
Minkowski's First Theorem and Dirichlet's Approximation Theorem provide upper bounds on certain minima taken over lattice points contained in domains of Euclidean spaces. We study the distribution of such minima and show, under some…
We are studying the Diophantine exponent \mu_{n,l}$ defined for integers 1 \leq l < n and a vector \alpha \in \mathbb{R}^n by letting \mu_{n,l} = \sup{\mu \geq 0: 0 < ||x \cdot \alpha|| < H(x)^{-\mu} for infinitely many x \in C_{n,l} \cap…
The Lagrange and Markov spectra are classical objects in Number Theory related to certain Diophantine approximation problems. Geometrically, they are the spectra of heights of geodesics in the modular surface. These objects were first…
In the thirties of the last century, I. M. Vinogradov established uniform distribution modulo 1 of the sequence $p\alpha$ when $\alpha$ is a fixed irrational real number and $p$ runs over the primes. In particular, he showed that the…
We give upper and lower bounds for Diophantine exponents measuring how well a point in the plane can be approximated by points in the orbit of a lattice $\Gamma<\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ acting linearly on $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our method gives…
Gallagher's theorem describes the multiplicative diophantine approximation rate of a typical vector. We establish a fully-inhomogeneous version of Gallagher's theorem, a diophantine fibre refinement, and a sharp and unexpected threshold for…
For Lebesgue generic $(x_1,x_2)\in \mathbb{R}^2$, we investigate the distribution of small values of products $q\cdot \|qx_1\| \cdot \|qx_2\|$ with $q\in\mathbb{N}$, where $\|\cdot \|$ denotes the distance to the closest integer. The main…
The Lagrange and Markov spectra $L$ and $M$ describe the best constants of Diophantine approximations for irrational numbers and binary quadratic forms. In 1880, A. Markov showed that the initial portions of these spectra coincide: indeed,…
We consider a one-parameter family of third order nonlinear recurrence relations. Each member of this family satisfies the singularity confinement test, has a conserved quantity, and moreover has the Laurent property: all of the iterates…
In 2004, J.C. Tong found bounds for the approximation quality of a regular continued fraction convergent of a rational number, expressed in bounds for both the previous and next approximation. We sharpen his results with a geometric method…
A Piatetski-Shapiro sequence with exponent $\alpha$ is a sequence of integer parts of $n^\alpha$ $(n = 1,2,\ldots)$ with a non-integral $\alpha > 0$. We let $\mathrm{PS}(\alpha)$ denote the set of those terms. In this article, we study the…
The field of formal Laurent series is a natural analogue of the real numbers, and mathematicians have been translating well-known results about rational approximations to that setting. In the framework of power series over the rational…
