Using elementary number theory we study Diophantine equations over the rational integers of the following form, $y^2=(x+a)(x+a+k)(x+b)(x+b+k)$, $y^2=c^2x^4+ax^2+b$ and $y^2=(x^2-1)(x^2-\alpha^2)(x^2-(\alpha+1)^2).$ We express their integer…
Using the Davenport-Heilbronn circle method, we show that for almost all additive Diophantine inequalities of degree $k$ in more than $2k$ variables the expected asymptotic formula for the density of solutions holds true. This appears to be…
First, we consider the equation $ax^2 - by^2 + c = 0$, with $a,b \in N*$ and $c \in Z*$, which is a generalization of Pell's equation. Here, we show that: if this equation has an integer solution and $ab$ is not a perfect square, then it…
These lecture notes are based on a set of six lectures that I gave in Edinburgh in 2008/2009 and they cover some topics in the interface between Geometry and Physics. They involve some unsolved problems and conjectures and I hope they may…

We prove a result on approximations to a real number $\theta$ by algebraic numbers of degree $\le 2$ in the case when we have information about the uniform Diophantine exponent $\hat{\omega}$ for the linear form $x_0 +\theta…
Summary of a talk at the conference The Chaotic Universe in Rome, Feb, 1999
Summary talk at ICHEP 2002, Amsterdam, July 2002. I have kept very close to the content and style of the talk as it was delivered. You may access the associated PowerPoint presentation through a link at…
Solving linear diophantine equations in two variables have applications in computer science and mathematics. In this paper, we revisit an algorithm for solving linear diophantine equations in two variables, which we refer as DEA-R…
We present in this article a general approach (in the form of recommendations and guidelines) for tackling Diophantine equation problems (whether single equations or systems of simultaneous equations). The article should be useful in…
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.
These are the notes from a course of five lectures at the 2009 Park City Math Institute. The focus is on elliptic curves over function fields over finite fields. In the first three lectures, we explain the main classical results (mainly due…
Diophantine exponents are ones of the simplest quantitative characteristics responsible for the approximation properties of linear subspaces of a Euclidean space. This survey is aimed at describing the current state of the area of…
We describe the spectrum of ordinary Diophantine exponents for $d$-dimensional lattices. The result reduces the problem to two-dimensional case and uses argument of metric theory.
Let $ \{L_n\}_{n\geq 0} $ be the sequence of Lucas numbers. In this paper, we look at the exponential Diophantine equation $L_n-2^x3^y=c$, for $n,x,y\in \mathbb{Z}_{\ge0}$. We treat the cases $c\in -\mathbb{N}$, $c=0$ and $c\in \mathbb{N}$…
Lecture notes from a minicourse given at the ICTP in May 2002.
The existence of exponential dichotomies has been well-established as a powerful tool to study existence, stability, and bifurcations of coherent structures. Currently, the application of exponential dichotomies to elliptic problems posed…
A talk presented at International Conference ICMP-2000, London, England
This text is a slightly expanded version of a survey article on certain aspects of low dimensional dynamics and number theory written after a kind invitation by the editors of the Notices of the American Mathematical Society.
Let $\Theta = (\theta_1,\theta_2,\theta_3)\in \mathbb{R}^3$. Suppose that $1,\theta_1,\theta_2,\theta_3$ are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Z}$. For Diophantine exponents $$ \alpha(\Theta) = \sup \{\gamma >0:\,\,\, \limsup_{t\to…
