Rational approximation to surfaces defined by polynomials in one variable

Abstract: We study the rational approximation properties of special manifolds defined by a set of polynomials with rational coefficients. Mostly we will assume the case of all polynomials to depend on only one variable. In this case the manifold can be viewed as a Cartesian product of polynomial curves and it is possible to generalize recent results concerning such curves with similar concepts. There is hope that the method leads to insights on how to treat more general manifolds defined by arbitrary polynomials with rational coefficients.
