Expanding Translates of Curves and Dirichlet-minkowski Theorem on Linear Forms

چکیده

We show that a multiplicative form of Dirichlet’s theorem on simultaneous Diophantine approximation as formulated by Minkowski, cannot be improved for almost all points on any analytic curve on R which is not contained in a proper affine subspace. Such an investigation was initiated by Davenport and Schmidt in the late sixties. The Diophantine problem is then settled via showing that certain sequence of expanding translates of curves on the homogeneous space of unimodular lattices in R k+1 gets equidistributed in the limit. We use Ratner’s theorem on unipotent flows, linearization techniques, and a new observation about intertwined linear dynamics of various SL(m,R)’s contained in SL(k + 1,R).

Equidistribution of Expanding Translates of Curves and Dirichlet’s Theorem on Diophantine Approximation

We show that for almost all points on any analytic curve on R which is not contained in a proper affine subspace, the Dirichlet’s theorem on simultaneous approximation, as well as its dual result for simultaneous approximation of linear forms, cannot be improved. The result is obtained by proving asymptotic equidistribution of evolution of a curve on a strongly unstable leaf under certain parti...

The Hasse–Minkowski Theorem

The Hasse-Minkowski Theorem provides a characterization of the rational quadratic forms. What follows is a proof of the Hasse-Minkowski Theorem paraphrased from the book, Number Theory by Z.I. Borevich and I.R. Shafarevich [1]. Throughout this paper, some familiarity with the p-adic numbers and the Hilbert symbol is assumed and some basic facts about quadratic forms are stated without proof. Al...

Optimal Transportation and Ricci Curvature for Metric Measure Spaces

Moreover, we introduce a curvature-dimension condition CD(K, N) being more restrictive than the curvature bound Curv(M,d, m) ≥ K. For Riemannian manifolds, CD(K, N) is equivalent to RicM (ξ, ξ) ≥ K · |ξ|2 and dim(M) ≤ N . Condition CD(K,N) implies sharp version of the Brunn-Minkowski inequality, of the Bishop-Gromov volume comparison theorem and of the Bonnet-Myers theorem. Moreover, it allows ...

m-Projections involving Minkowski inverse and range symmetric property in Minkowski space

In this paper we study the impact of Minkowski metric matrix on a projection in the Minkowski Space M along with their basic algebraic and geometric properties.The relation between the m-projections and the Minkowski inverse of a matrix A in the minkowski space M is derived. In the remaining portion commutativity of Minkowski inverse in Minkowski Space M is analyzed in terms of m-projections as...

Presentation and Solving Non-Linear Quad-Level Programming Problem Utilizing a Heuristic Approach Based on Taylor Theorem

The multi-level programming problems are attractive for many researchers because of their application in several areas such as economic, traffic, finance, management, transportation, information technology, engineering and so on. It has been proven that even the general bi-level programming problem is an NP-hard problem, so the multi-level problems are practical and complicated problems therefo...
