Around the Littlewood conjecture in Diophantine approximation
The Littlewood conjecture in Diophantine approximation claims thatholds for all real numbers and , where denotes the distance to the nearest integer. Its -adic analogue, formulated by de Mathan and Teulié in 2004, asserts thatholds for every real number and every prime number , where denotes the -adic absolute value normalized by . We survey the known results on these conjectures and highlight recent developments.
