Diophantine approximation on algebraic varieties
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Volume 11 (1999) no. 2, pp. 439-502.

We present an overview of recent advances in diophantine approximation. Beginning with Roth's theorem, we discuss the Mordell conjecture and then pass on to recent higher dimensional results due to Faltings-Wustholz and to Faltings respectively.

Nous donnons un aperçu de progrès récents en théorie de l'approximation diophantienne. Le point de départ étant le théorème de Roth, nous nous intéressons d'abord à la conjecture de Mordell, puis ensuite à des résultats analogues en dimension supérieure, résultats dûs à Faltings-Wustholz et à Faltings.
