Abstract Suppose that λ1, λ2, λ3, λ4, λ5 are nonzero real numbers, not all of the same sign, λ1/λ2 is irrational, λ2/λ4 and λ3/λ5 are rational. Let η real, and ε > 0. Then there are infinitely many solutions in primes pj to the inequality $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle |\lambda_1p_1+\lambda_2p_2^2+\lambda_3p_3^3+\lambda_4p_4^4+\lambda_5p_5^5+\eta| \lt (\max{p_j^j})^{-1/32+\varepsilon} \end{array}$. This improves an earlier result under extra conditions of λj.

Let [Formula: see text] be an integer with [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] be any real number. Suppose that [Formula: see text] are nonzero real numbers, not all the same sign and [Formula: see text] is irrational. It is proved that the inequality [Formula: see text] has infinitely many solutions in primes [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. This generalizes earlier results. As application, we get that the integer parts of [Formula: see text] are prime infinitely often for primes [Formula: see text].

Introduction. If ξ is a real number we denote by ∥ ξ ∥ the difference between ξ and the nearest integer, i.e.It is well known (e.g. Koksma (3), I, Satz 4) that if θ1, θ2, …, θn are any real numbers, the inequalityhas infinitely many integer solutions q > 0. In particular, if α is any real number, the inequalityhas infinitely many solutions.

Let [Formula: see text] be nonzero real numbers not all of the same sign, satisfying that [Formula: see text] is irrational, and [Formula: see text] be a real number. In this paper, we prove that for any [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] has infinitely many solutions in prime variables [Formula: see text].

It is proved that if [Formula: see text] are nonzero real numbers, not all of the same sign and [Formula: see text] is irrational, then for given real numbers [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], the inequality [Formula: see text] has infinitely many solutions in prime variables [Formula: see text]. This result constitutes an improvement upon that of Liu for the range [Formula: see text].

AbstractLet λj (1 ≦ j ≦ 4) be any nonzero real numbers which are not all of the same sign and not all in rational ratio and let pj be polynomials of degree one or two with integer coefficients and positive leading coefficients. The author proves that if exactly two pj are of degree two then for any real n there are infinitely many solutions in primes pj of the inequality . where 0 <β < (√(21)–1)∖5760.

Let $b\geq 2$ be an integer and $\hat{v}$ a real number. Among other results, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the set of real numbers ${\it\xi}$ with the property that, for every sufficiently large integer $N$, there exists an integer $n$ such that $1\leq n\leq N$ and the distance between $b^{n}{\it\xi}$ and its nearest integer is at most equal to $b^{-\hat{v}N}$. We further solve the same question when replacing $b^{n}{\it\xi}$ by $T_{{\it\beta}}^{n}{\it\xi}$, where $T_{{\it\beta}}$ denotes the classical ${\it\beta}$-transformation.

Let k be an integer with 4 ≤ k ≤ 6 and η be any real number. Suppose that λ 1 , λ 2 , … , λ 5 are nonzero real numbers, not all of them have the same sign, and λ 1 / λ 2 is irrational. It is proved that the inequality λ 1 p 1 + λ 2 p 2 2 + λ 3 p 3 3 + λ 4 p 4 4 + λ 5 p 5 k + η < max 1 ≤ j ≤ 5 p j − σ k has infinitely many solutions in prime variables p 1 , p 2 , p 3 , p 4 ,  and  p 5 , where 0 < σ 4 < 1 / 36 , 0 < σ 5 < 4 / 189 , and 0 < σ 6 < 1 / 54 . This gives an improvement of the recent results.

1. Introduction. Let ω be an irrational number. It is well known that there exists a positive real number h such that the inequality(1)has infinitely many solutions in coprime integers a and c. A theorem of Hurwitz asserts that the set of all such numbers h is a closed set with supremum √5. Various proofs of these results are known, among them one by Ford (1), in which he makes use of properties of the modular group. This approach suggests the following generalization.

Abstract In a classic paper [14], W.G. Spohn established the to-date sharpest estimates from below for the simultaneous Diophantine approximation constants for three and more real numbers. As a by-result of his method which used Blichfeldt’s Theorem and the calculus of variations, he derived a bound for the critical determinant of the star body|x1|(|x1|3 + |x2|3 + |x3|3 ≤ 1.In this little note, after a brief exposition of the basics of the geometry of numbers and its significance for Diophantine approximation, this latter result is improved and extended to the star body|x1|(|x1|3 + |x22 + x32)3/2≤ 1.
