Metric Theory of Diophantine Approximations


Book Description

This monograph is a systematic presentation of a branch of number theory known as the metric theory of Diophantine approximation. The main emphasis is on extremal problems, i.e., problems involving approximations that are best in a certain sense.




Metric Diophantine Approximation on Manifolds


Book Description

This book is concerned with Diophantine approximation on smooth manifolds embedded in Euclidean space, and its aim is to develop a coherent body of theory comparable with that which already exists for classical Diophantine approximation. In particular, this book deals with Khintchine-type theorems and with the Hausdorff dimension of the associated null sets. All researchers with an interest in Diophantine approximation will welcome this book.




Dynamics and Analytic Number Theory


Book Description

Presents current research in various topics, including homogeneous dynamics, Diophantine approximation and combinatorics.




Diophantine Approximation and Abelian Varieties


Book Description

The 13 chapters of this book centre around the proof of Theorem 1 of Faltings' paper "Diophantine approximation on abelian varieties", Ann. Math.133 (1991) and together give an approach to the proof that is accessible to Ph.D-level students in number theory and algebraic geometry. Each chapter is based on an instructional lecture given by its author ata special conference for graduate students, on the topic of Faltings' paper.




Diophantine Approximation


Book Description

This volume contains 21 research and survey papers on recent developments in the field of diophantine approximation, which are based on lectures given at a conference at the Erwin Schrödinger-Institute (Vienna, 2003). The articles are either in the spirit of more classical diophantine analysis or of a geometric or combinatorial flavor. Several articles deal with estimates for the number of solutions of diophantine equations as well as with congruences and polynomials.




Diophantine Approximations


Book Description

This self-contained treatment covers approximation of irrationals by rationals, product of linear forms, multiples of an irrational number, approximation of complex numbers, and product of complex linear forms. 1963 edition.







Diophantine Approximation and Its Applications


Book Description

This volume represents the proceedings of a Conference on Diophantine Approximation and Its Applications held in Washington, D.C., June 6-8, 1972, and sponsored by the Mathematics Research Center of the Naval Research Laboratory. The purpose of this meeting was to stimulate research in the area of Diophantine approximation by bringing together many of the leading researchers in this field so that they could exchange information and ideas. Fourteen formal lectures were presented at the conference, and these are the papers contained in this volume.
