Dirichlet proved that for any real irrational number ΞΎ there exist infinitely many rational numbers p/q such that |ΞΎp/q| < q -2 . The correct generalization to the case of approximation by algebraic numbers of degree n, n > 2, is still unknown. Here we prove a result which improves all previous esti
## Abstract We consider elements __x__ + __y__$ \sqrt {-m} $ in the imaginary quadratic number field β($ \sqrt {-m} $) such that the norm __x__^2^ + __my__^2^ = 1 and both __x__ and __y__ have a finite __b__βadic expansion for an arbitrary but fixed integer base __b__. For __m__ = 2, 3, 7 and 11 a
