Abstract
The exact decrease rate of the best approximations of non-integer numbers by polynomials with integer coefficients of growing degrees is found on a disk in the complex plane, a cube in ℝd, and a ball in ℝd. The sup-norm is used in the first two cases, and the norm in Lp, 1 ≤ p < ∞, is applied in the third one. Detailed comments are given (two remarks at the end of the paper).
