Abstract: Let $d$ be a positive integer. Let $p$ be a prime number. Let $alpha$ be a real algebraic number of degree $d+1$. We establish that there exist a positive constant $c$ and infinitely many algebraic numbers $xi$ of degree $d$ such that $|alpha-xi|cdotmin|Norm(xi){|}_p,1<cH(xi{)}^{-d-1}(log3H(xi){)}^{-1/d}$. Here, $H(xi)$ and $Norm(xi)$ denote the na{"i}ve height of $xi$ and its norm, respectively. This extends an earlier result of de Mathan and Teuli'e that deals with the case $d=1$.
