APPROXIMATION OF AN ALGEBRAIC NUMBER BY PRODUCTS OF RATIONAL NUMBERS AND UNITS
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 February 2013
Abstract
We relate a previous result of ours on families of Diophantine equations having only trivial solutions with a result on the approximation of an algebraic number by products of rational numbers and units. We compare this approximation with a Liouville type estimate, and with an estimate arising from a lower bound for a linear combination of logarithms.
