The Baker-Schmidt problem for dual approximation and some classes of functions

Abstract

The Generalised Baker-Schmidt Problem (1970) concerns the Hausdorff $f$-measure of the set of $Ψ$-approximable points on a nondegenerate manifold. We refine and extend our previous work [Int. Math. Res. Not. IMRN 2021, no. 12, 8845--8867] in which we settled the problem (for dual approximation) for hypersurfaces. We verify the GBSP for certain classes of nondegenerate submanifolds of codimension greater than $1$. Concretely, for codimension two or three, we provide examples of manifolds where the dependent variables can be chosen as quadratic forms. Our method requires the manifold to have even dimension at least the minimum of four and half the dimension of the ambient space. We conjecture that these restrictions on the dimension of the manifold are sufficient to provide similar examples in general.

Asymptotic density of k-almost primes

Landau's well known asymptotic formula $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : Ω(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \left( \frac{x}{\log x} \right) \frac{(\log\log x)^{k-1}}{(k - 1)!}\ \ (x \rightarrow \infty),$$ which also holds for $$π_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : ω(n)=k\}\mid,$$ is known to be fairly poor for $k > 1$, and when $k$ is allowed to tend to infinity with $x$, the study of $N_k(x)$ and $π_k(x)$ becomes very technical [1, Chapter II.6, $§$ 6.1, p.200]. I hope to show that the method described below provides not only a more accurate approach, but rather increases in its asymptotic accuracy as $k$ tends to infinity.

Real quadratic base changes for $\mathrm{GL}_3$ and integral periods relations

We prove a $p$-adic divisibility between the automorphic periods of a cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GL}_3(\mathbb{Q})$ and the periods of its Arthur-Clozel's base change to some real quadratic field $E$. This generalizes earlier works of Tilouine-Urban and of Hida in the case of classical modular forms. The divisibility we prove involves a new kind of automorphic periods, defined using the middle degree of the cuspidal cohomology of $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$, instead of the top or bottom degrees. We also investigate the Rogawski's stable base change from the quasi-split unitary group $U_E$ associated with $E$ to $\mathrm{GL}_3(E)$. In this situation, we also obtain some results toward a $p$-adic divisibility of automorphic periods.
