On approximation to real numbers by algebraic numbers [PDF]

open access: yesActa Arithmetica, 2000
Define the height \(H(\alpha)\) of an algebraic number \(\alpha\) as the maximum of the absolute values of the coefficients of its irreducible polynomial over \(\mathbb{Z}\). Let \(n\geq 2\) be an integer and let \(\xi\) be a real number which is not an algebraic number of degree \(\leq n\).

STABILITY OF MOTION OF RAILWAY VEHICLES DESCRIBED WITH LAGRANGE EQUATIONS OF THE FIRST KIND

open access: yesNauka ta progres transportu, 2018
Purpose. The article aims to estimate the stability of the railway vehicle motion, whose oscillations are described by Lagrange equations of the first kind under the assumption that there are no nonlinearities with discontinuities of the right-hand sides.

Thue's Fundamentaltheorem, I: The General Case

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, Thue's Fundamentaltheorem is analysed. We show that it includes, and often strengthens, known effective irrationality measures obtained via the so-called hypergeometric method as well as showing that it can be applied to previously ...

Simultaneous approximation of a real number by all conjugates of an algebraic number

open access: yes, 2007
Using a method of H. Davenport and W. M. Schmidt, we show that, for each positive integer n, the ratio 2/n is the optimal exponent of simultaneous approximation to real irrational numbers 1) by all conjugates of algebraic numbers of degree n, and 2) by ...

On Approximation constants for Liouville numbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate some Diophantine approximation constants related to the simultaneous approximation of $(\zeta,\zeta^{2},\ldots,\zeta^{k})$ for Liouville numbers $\zeta$. For a certain class of Liouville numbers including the famous representative $\sum_{n\

Simultaneous rational approximations to algebraic numbers [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the American Mathematical Society, 1961
Let \(\beta_1, \beta_2, \dots,\beta_n\) be linearly independent numbers of a real algebraic number field of degree \(n+1\). By a study of the units of the field it is shown how to obtain all integral solutions of the set of inequalities: \[ q_0>0, \quad\gcd(q_0,q_1,\dots,q_n)=1,\quad | \beta_j/\beta_0-q_j/q_0| < Cq_0^{-1-1/n} \] for fixed \(C\).

A Hyper-Dual Number Approach to Higher-Order Derivative Computation

open access: yesAxioms
This paper develops a theoretical framework for the computation of higher-order derivatives based on the algebra of hyper-dual numbers. Extending the classical dual number system, hyper-dual numbers provide a natural and rigorous mechanism for encoding ...

Exponents of Diophantine Approximation and Sturmian Continued Fractions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Let x be a real number and let n be a positive integer. We define four exponents of Diophantine approximation, which complement the exponents w_n(x) and w_n^*(x) defined by Mahler and Koksma.

The Polyhedron-Hitting Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We consider polyhedral versions of Kannan and Lipton's Orbit Problem (STOC '80 and JACM '86)---determining whether a target polyhedron V may be reached from a starting point x under repeated applications of a linear transformation A in an ambient vector ...

Normal Shock Wave Approximations for Flight at Hypersonic Mach Numbers

open access: yesAerospace
Normal shock pressure ratios in equilibrium air for Mach numbers up to 30 and altitudes to 300,000 feet are shown to be correlated by a simple power law which provides an accuracy of ±2%, thereby permitting direct calculation of corresponding enthalpy ...
