Abstract:
Singular vectors were defined by Khintchin in the twenties.
Recently it has been proved by Yitwah Cheung that the Hausdorff
dimension of the set of singular couples is $4/3$. In a joint work
with Yitwah Cheung, we have proved that the Hausdorff dimension of the
set of singular vectors in $\mathbb R^d$ is $\frac{d^2}{d+1}$.
We will explain the proof of this formula with a special emphasis on best
Diophantine approximations.
