    Khinchin theorem for integral points on quadratic varieties

    Full text link
    We prove an analogue the Khinchin theorem for the Diophantine approximation by integer vectors lying on a quadratic variety. The proof is based on the study of a dynamical system on a homogeneous space of the orthogonal group. We show that in this system, generic trajectories visit a family of shrinking subsets infinitely often.Comment: 19 page

    Rational approximation and arithmetic progressions

    Full text link
    A reasonably complete theory of the approximation of an irrational by rational fractions whose numerators and denominators lie in prescribed arithmetic progressions is developed in this paper. Results are both, on the one hand, from a metrical and a non-metrical point of view and, on the other hand, from an asymptotic and also a uniform point of view. The principal novelty is a Khintchine type theorem for uniform approximation in this context. Some applications of this theory are also discussed

    Diophantine Approximation and applications in Interference Alignment

    This paper is motivated by recent applications of Diophantine approximation in electronics, in particular, in the rapidly developing area of Interference Alignment. Some remarkable advances in this area give substantial credit to the fundamental Khintchine-Groshev Theorem and, in particular, to its far reaching generalisation for submanifolds of a Euclidean space. With a view towards the aforementioned applications, here we introduce and prove quantitative explicit generalisations of the Khintchine-Groshev Theorem for non-degenerate submanifolds of R n. The importance of such quantitative statements is explicitly discussed in Jafar's monograph [12, §4.7.1]

    Badly approximable points on manifolds

    Addressing a problem of Davenport we show that any finite intersection of the sets of weighted badly approximable points on any analytic nondegenerate manifold in has full dimension. This also extends Schmidt's conjecture on badly approximable points to arbitrary dimensions
