Abstract: For $i,j>0,i+j=1$, the set of badly approximable vectors with weight $(i,j)$ is defined by $Bad(i,j)=(x,y)in{R}^2:existsc>0forallqinN,;;maxq||qx|{|}^{1/i},q||qy|{|}^{1/j}>c$, where $||x||$ is the distance of $x$ to the nearest integer. In 2010 Badziahin-Pollington-Velani solved Schmidt's conjecture which was stated in 1982, proving that $Bad(i,j)capBad(j,i)$ is nonempty. Using Badziahin-Pollington-Velani's technique with reference to fractal sets, we were able to improve their results: Assume that we are given a sequence $(i_t,j_t)$ with $i_t,j_t>0,i_t+j_t=1$. Then, the intersection of $Bad(i_t,j_t)$ over all t is nonempty.
