Exact approximation order of real numbers in Cantor series expansions

Abstract: Let $Q = {q_n}_{n \ge 1}$ be a sequence of integers with $q_n \ge 2$ for all $n \in\mathbb{N}$. For any real number $x \in [0,1)$, it can be expanded into the following infinite series: $$x =\frac{\varepsilon_1(x)}{q_1}+ \frac{\varepsilon_2(x)}{q_1 q_2}+ \cdots+ \frac{\varepsilon_n(x)}{q_1 q_2 \cdots q_n}+ \cdots,$$ which is called the Cantor series expansion of $x$. We introduce the exact spproximation order in Cantor series expansions. It is analogous to the notion appearing in classical Diophantine approximation. More precisely, let $ω_n(x)$ denote the $n$-th partial sum of the Cantor series expansion of $x$. For any monotonic function $ψ$, we study the metric theory of the set $E_c(ψ)$ of points that are exactly $ψ$-approximable by $ω_n(x)$.
