"Rational points near manifold and Diophantine approximation"

It is well known that sharp estimates on the number of rational
points near manifold can lead to solutions of some long standing
conjectures on metric Diophantine approximation. The former question which is very interesting in its own right, is nevertheless rather hard. During the last decade or so there has been some remarkable breakthrough on this difficult problem. In this talk we will discuss some related topics.
