Meilleures approximations diophantiennes simultanées et théorème de Lévy
[Best simultaneous Diophantine approximations and Lévy's theorem]
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 55 (2005) no. 5, pp. 1635-1657.

According to Lévy's theorem, the denominators of the continued fraction expansion of a real number almost surely grow at most at the rate of a geometric series. We extend this estimate to best simultaneous Diophantine approximations to a set of linear forms.

D'après le théorème de Lévy, les dénominateurs du développement en fraction continue d'un réel croissent presque sûrement à une vitesse au plus exponentielle. Nous étendons cette estimation aux meilleures approximations diophantiennes simultanées de formes linéaires.
