In this short paper we prove a quantitative version of the Khintchine-Groshev Theorem with congruence conditions. Our argument relies on a classical argument of Schmidt on counting generic lattice points, which in turn relies on a certain variance bound on the space of lattices.
We prove a version of the Khinchine--Groshev theorem for Diophantine approximation of matrices subject to a congruence condition. The proof relies on an extension of the Dani correspondence to the quotient by a congruence subgroup. This correspondence together with a multiple ergodic theorem are used to study rational approximations in several congruence classes simultaneously. The result in this part holds in the generality of weighted approximation but is restricted to simple approximation functions.
For a positive integer $t\geq 2$, let $b_{t}(n)$ denote the number of $t$-regular partitions of a nonnegative integer $n$. In a recent paper, Keith and Zanello investigated the parity of $b_{t}(n)$ when $t\leq 28$. They discovered new infinite families of Ramanujan type congruences modulo 2 for $b_{21}(n)$ involving every prime $p$ with $p\equiv 13, 17, 19, 23 \pmod{24}$. In this paper, we investigate the parity of $b_{21}(n)$ involving the primes $p$ with $p\equiv 1, 5, 7, 11 \pmod{24}$. We prove new infinite families of Ramanujan type congruences modulo 2 for $b_{21}(n)$ involving the odd pr…
We are interested in solving the congruences $f^3+g^3+1\equiv 0\pmod{fg}$ and $f^4-4g^2+4\equiv 0\pmod{fg}$ in polynomials $f, g$ with rational coefficients. Moreover, we present results of computations of all integer points on certain one parametric curves of genus 1 and 3, related to cubic and quartic fields, respectively.
We give bounds on the number of solutions to the Diophantine equation (X+1/x)(Y+1/y) = n as n tends to infinity. These bounds are related to the number of solutions to congruences of the form ax+by = 1 modulo xy.
Let $b_3(n)$ be the number of $3$-regular partitions of $n$. Recently, W. J. Keith and F. Zanello discovered infinite families of Ramanujan type congruences modulo $2$ for $b_3(2n)$ involving every prime $p$ with $p \equiv 13, 17, 19, 23 \pmod {24}$, and O. X. M. Yao provided new infinite families of Ramanujan type congruences modulo $2$ for $b_3(2n)$ involving every prime $p\geqslant 5$. In this paper, we introduce new infinite Ramanujan type congruences modulo $2$ for $b_3(2n)$. They complement naturally the results of Keith-Zanello and Yao and involve primes in $\mathcal P=\{p \text{ prime …
The paper shows that the asymptotic density of solutions of Diophantine equations or systems of the natural numbers is 0. The author provides estimation methods and estimates number, density and probability of k- tuples $<x_1,...x_k>$ to be the solution of the algebraic equations of the first, second and higher orders in two or more variables, non-algebraic Diophantine equations and systems of Diophantine equations in the domain of the natural numbers. The estimate for the number of positive integer solutions of the second-order Diophantine equations in two, three or more variables is geometri…
In his 1960 paper, Schmidt studied a quantitative type of Khintchine-Groshev theorem for general (higher) dimensions. Recently, a new proof of the theorem was found, which made it possible to relax the dimensional constraint and more generally, to add on the congruence condition by M. Alam, A. Ghosh, and S. Yu. In this paper, we generalize this new approach to S-arithmetic spaces and obtain a quantitative version of an S-arithmetic Khintchine-Groshev theorem. In fact, we consider a new S-arithmetic analog of Diophantine approximation, which is different from the one formerly established (see t…
We consider a system of integer polynomials of the same degree with non-singular local zeros and in many variables. Generalising the work of Birch (1962) we find quantitative asymptotics (in terms of the maximum of the absolute value of the coefficients of these polynomials) for the number of integer zeros of this system within a growing box. Using a quantitative version of the Nullstellensatz, we obtain a quantitative strong approximation result, i.e. an upper bound on the smallest integer zero provided the system of polynomials is non-singular.
We consider multiparameter dynamics on the space of unimolular lattices. Along with quantitative nondivergence we prove that multiplicative Diophantine exponents of hyperplanes are inherited by their nondegenerate submanifolds.
We present a sharpening of nondivergence estimates for unipotent (or more generally polynomial-like) flows on homogeneous spaces. Applied to metric Diophantine approximation, it yields precise formulas for Diophantine exponents of affine subspaces of $\Bbb R^n$ and their nondegenerate submanifolds.
We prove a new quantitative result on the degeneracy of the dimension of the subspace spanned by the best Diophantine approximations for a linear form.
Recently, Adiceam, Beresnevich, Levesley, Velani and Zorin proved a quantitative version of the convergence case of the Khintchine-Groshev theorem for nondegenerate manifolds, motivated by applications to interference alignment. In the present paper, we obtain analogues of their results for affine subspaces.
The goal of this survey is to discuss the Quantitative non-Divergence estimate on the space of lattices and present a selection of its applications. The topics covered include extremal manifolds, Khintchine-Groshev type theorems, rational points lying close to manifolds and badly approximable points on manifolds. The main emphasis is on the role of the Quantitative non-Divergence estimate in the aforementioned topics within the theory of Diophantine approximation, and therefore this paper should not be regarded as a comprehensive overview of the area.
In the present paper we establish bounds for the size of the spectral gap for actions of algebraic groups on certain homogeneous spaces. Our approach is based on estimating operator norms of suitable averaging operators, and we develop techniques for establishing both upper and lower bounds for such norms. We shall show that this analytic problem is closely related to the arithmetic problem of establishing bounds on the discrepancy of distribution for rational points on algebraic group varieties. As an application, we show how to establish an effective bound for property $τ$ of congruence subg…
In this short note, we closely follow the approach of Green and Tao to extend the best known bound for recurrence modulo 1 from squares to the largest possible class of polynomials. The paper concludes with a brief discussion of a consequence of this result for polynomials structures in sumsets and limitations of the method.
An open conjecture of Erdos and Moser is that the only solution of the Diophantine equation in the title is the trivial solution 1+2=3. Reducing the equation modulo k and k^2, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on solutions to the resulting congruence and supercongruence. A corollary is a new proof of Moser's result that the conjecture is true for odd exponents n. We also connect solutions k of the congruence to primary pseudoperfect numbers and to a result of Zagier. The proofs use divisibility properties of power sums as well as Lerch's relation between Fermat and Wilson quotients.
Let $F \subseteq [0,1]$ be a set that supports a probability measure $μ$ with the property that $ |\widehatμ(t)| \ll (\log |t|)^{-A}$ for some constant $ A > 0 $. Let $\mathcal{A}= (q_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} $ be a sequence of natural numbers. If $\mathcal{A}$ is lacunary and $A >2$, we establish a quantitative inhomogeneous Khintchine-type theorem in which (i) the points of interest are restricted to $F$ and (ii) the denominators of the `shifted' rationals are restricted to $\mathcal{A}$. The theorem can be viewed as a natural strengthening of the fact that the sequence $(q_nx {\rm \ mod \, } 1)…
We generalize Dirichlet's diophantine approximation theorem to approximating any real number $α$ by a sum of two rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2 \leq N$. This turns out to be related to the congruence equation problem $x y \equiv c \pmod q$ with $1 \leq x, y \leq q^{1/2 + ε}$.
The distribution of $αp$ modulo one, where $p$ runs over the rational primes and $α$ is a fixed irrational real, has received a lot of attention. It is natural to ask for which exponents $ν>0$ one can establish the infinitude of primes $p$ satisfying $||αp||\le p^{-ν}$. The latest record in this regard is Kaisa Matomäki's landmark result $ν=1/3-\varepsilon$ which presents the limit of currently known technology. Recently, Glyn Harman, and, jointly, Marc Technau and the first-named author, investigated the same problem in the context of imaginary quadratic fields. Glyn Harman obtained an analog…
We prove over fields of power series the analogues of several Diophantine approximation results obtained over the field of real numbers. In particular we establish the power series analogue of Kronecker's theorem for matrices, together with a quantitative form of it, which can also be seen as a transference inequality between uniform approximation and inhomogeneous approximation. Special attention is devoted to the one dimensional case. Namely, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on an irrational power series $α$ which ensures that, for some positive $\eps$, the set $$ \liminf_{Q \in …
We consider the problem of Diophantine approximation on semisimple algebraic groups by rational points with restricted numerators and denominators and establish a quantitative approximation result for all real points in the group by rational points with any prescribed denominator and an almost prime numerator.

This paper is devoted to the study of a problem of Cassels in multiplicative Diophantine approximation which involves minimising values of a product of affine linear forms computed at integral points. It was previously known that values of this product become arbitrary close to zero, and we establish that, in fact, they approximate zero with an explicit rate. Our approach is based on investigating quantitative density of orbits of higher-rank abelian groups.
In a ground-breaking work \cite{BY}, Beresnevich and Yang recently proved Khintchine's theorem in simultaneous Diophantine approximation for nondegenerate manifolds resolving a long-standing problem in the theory of Diophantine approximation. In this paper, we prove an effective version of their result.
An asymptotic formula which holds almost everywhere is obtained for the number of solutions to the Diophantine inequalities |qA-p|<ψ(|q|), where A is an n by m matrix (m>1) over the field of formal Laurent series with coefficients from a finite field, and p and q are vectors of polynomials over the same finite field.

The main goal of this work is to establish quantitative nondivergence estimates for flows on homogeneous spaces of products of real and $p$-adic Lie groups. These results have applications both to ergodic theory and to Diophantine approximation. Namely, earlier results of Dani (finiteness of locally finite ergodic unipotent-invariant measures on real homogeneous spaces) and Kleinbock-Margulis (strong extremality of nondegenerate submanifolds of $\Bbb R^n$) are generalized to the $S$-arithmetic setting.
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 $\mathbb{R}^n$. The importance of such quanti…
The goal of this paper is to generalize the main results of [KM] and subsequent papers on metric Diophantine approximation with dependent quantities to the set-up of systems of linear forms. In particular, we establish `joint strong extremality' of arbitrary finite collection of smooth nondegenerate submanifolds of ${\bold R}^n$. The proofs are based on generalized quantitative nondivergence estimates for translates of measures on the space of lattices.
Let $Λ$ be a subgroup of an arithmetic lattice in SO(n+1,1). The quotient $\mathbb{H}^{n+1} / Λ$ has a natural family of congruence covers corresponding to primes in some ring of integers. We establish a super-strong approximation result for Zariski-dense $Λ$ with some additional regularity and thickness properties. Concretely, this asserts a quantitative spectral gap for the Laplacian operators on the congruence covers. This generalizes results of Sarnak and Xue (1991) and Gamburd (2002).
We present shrinking targets results for general systems with the emphasis on applications for IETs (interval exchange transformations) $(J,T)$, $J=[0,1)$. In particular, we prove that if an IET $(J,T)$ is ergodic (relative to the Lebesgue measure $\lam$), then the equality \[ \liminf_{n\to\infty}\limits n |T^n(x)-y|=0 \tag{A1} \] holds for $\lam\ttimes\lam$-a. a. $(x,y)\in J^2$. The ergodicity assumption is essential: the result does not extend to all minimal IETs. The factor $n$ in (A1) is optimal (e. g., it cannot be replaced by $n \ln(\ln(\ln n))$. On the other hand, for Lebesgue almost al…
Let $Y_0$ be a not very well approximable $m\times n$ matrix, and let $M$ be a connected analytic submanifold in the space of $m\times n$ matrices containing $Y_0$. Then almost all $Y\in M$ are not very well approximable. This and other similar statements are cast in terms of properties of certain orbits on homogeneous spaces and deduced from quantitative nondivergence estimates for `quasi-polynomial' flows on on the space of lattices.
In 1958, Szüsz proved an inhomogeneous version of Khintchine's theorem on Diophantine approximation. Szüsz's theorem states that for any non-increasing approximation function $ψ:\mathbb{N}\to (0,1/2)$ with $\sum_q ψ(q)=\infty$ and any number $γ,$ the following set \[ W(ψ,γ)=\{x\in [0,1]: |qx-p-γ|< ψ(q) \text{ for infinitely many } q,p\in\mathbb{N}\} \] has full Lebesgue measure. Since then, there are very few results in relaxing the monotonicity condition. In this paper, we show that if $γ$ is can not be approximate by rational numbers too well, then the monotonicity condition can be replaced …
Point counting estimates are a key stepping stone to various results in metric Diophantine approximation. In this paper we use the quantitative non-divergence estimates originally developed by Kleinbock and Margulis to improve lower bounds by Bernik, Götze et al. for the number of points with algebraic conjugate coordinates close to a given manifold. In the process, we also improve on a Khinchin-Groshev-type theorem for a problem of constrained approximation by polynomials.
For a positive proportion of primes $p$ and $q$, we prove that $\mathbb{Z}$ is Diophantine in the ring of integers of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{p},\sqrt{-q})$. This provides a new and explicit infinite family of number fields $K$ such that Hilbert's tenth problem for $O_K$ is unsolvable. Our methods use Iwasawa theory and congruences of Heegner points in order to obtain suitable rank stability properties for elliptic curves.
We prove a quantitative theorem for Diophantine approximation by rational points on spheres. Our results are valid for arbitrary unimodular lattices and we further prove 'spiraling' results for the direction of approximates. These results are quantitative generalizations of the Khintchine-type theorem on spheres proved by Kleinbock and Merrill.
