Suppose $x\in \mathbb{R}$ is irrational, with irrationality measure $\mu=\mu(x)$; this means that the inequality $|x-\frac{p}{q}|< q^{-\lambda}$ has infinitely many solutions in integers $p,q$ if and only if $\lambda < \mu$. A beautiful theorem of Roth asserts that algebraic numbers have irrationality measure $2$. For $\lambda<\mu$, let $\mathcal{Q}(x,\lambda) \subset \mathbb{N}$ be the (infinite) set of all $q$ occuring in solutions to the aforementioned inequality.

Question: For which pairs $(x,\lambda)$ does $\mathcal{Q}(x,\lambda)$ have positive relative density in the positive integers? For which pairs $(x,\lambda)$ does the cardinality of $\mathcal{Q}(x,\lambda) \cap [1,N]$ grow like a positive power of $N$?
