An explicit version of Birch's Theorem
A generalization of the well-known Fibonacci sequence given by F₀ = 0, F₁ = 1 and for all n ≥ 0 is the k-generalized Fibonacci sequence whose first k terms are 0,..., 0, 1 and each term afterwards is the sum of the preceding k terms. For the Fibonacci sequence the formula holds for all n ≥ 0. In this paper, we show that there is no integer x ≥ 2 such that the sum of the xth powers of two consecutive k-generalized Fibonacci numbers is again a k-generalized Fibonacci number. This generalizes...
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 to the case where the numerators and the denominators of the rational approximants are related by a congruential constraint stronger than coprimality.
This Note gives an extension of Mahler's theorem on lattices in to simply connected nilpotent groups with a -structure. From this one gets an application to groups of Heisenberg type and a generalization of Hermite's inequality.
We prove a version of the Khinchin-Groshev theorem in Diophantine approximation for quadratic extensions of function fields in positive characteristic.
