Metric Diophantine approximation on the middle-third Cantor set

Yann Bugeaud, Arnaud Durand (2016)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let μ 2 be a real number and let ( μ ) denote the set of real numbers approximable at order at least μ by rational numbers. More than eighty years ago, Jarník and, independently, Besicovitch established that the Hausdorff dimension of ( μ ) is equal to 2 / μ . We investigate the size of the intersection of ( μ ) with Ahlfors regular compact subsets of the interval [ 0 , 1 ] . In particular, we propose a conjecture for the exact value of the dimension of ( μ ) intersected with the middle-third Cantor set and give several results...

Multiplicative zero-one laws and metric number theory

Victor Beresnevich, Alan Haynes, Sanju Velani (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

We develop the classical theory of Diophantine approximation without assuming monotonicity or convexity. A complete 'multiplicative' zero-one law is established akin to the 'simultaneous' zero-one laws of Cassels and Gallagher. As a consequence we are able to establish the analogue of the Duffin-Schaeffer theorem within the multiplicative setup. The key ingredient is the rather simple but nevertheless versatile 'cross fibering principle'. In a nutshell it enables us to 'lift' zero-one laws to higher...

Non-Typical Points for β-Shifts

David Färm, Tomas Persson (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We study sets of non-typical points under the map f β β x mod 1 for non-integer β and extend our results from [Fund. Math. 209 (2010)] in several directions. In particular, we prove that sets of points whose forward orbit avoid certain Cantor sets, and the set of points for which ergodic averages diverge, have large intersection properties. We observe that the technical condition β > 1.541 found in the above paper can be removed.

Note on the density constant in the distribution of self-numbers. II

G. Troi, U. Zannier (1999)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Dimostriamo che la costante che regola la distribuzione dei cosiddetti self numbers è un numero trascendente. Ciò precisa un risultato dimostrato in un precedente articolo dal medesimo titolo, ossia che tale costante sia irrazionale. Il metodo fa uso di una curiosa formula per l'espansione 2-adica di tale numero (già utilizzata nell'altro lavoro) e del profondo Teorema del Sottospazio.

On Baker type lower bounds for linear forms

Tapani Matala-aho (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

A criterion is given for studying (explicit) Baker type lower bounds of linear forms in numbers 1 , Θ 1 , . . . , Θ m * over the ring of an imaginary quadratic field . This work deals with the simultaneous auxiliary functions case.
