Diophantine inequalities and quasi-algebraically closed fields

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Consider a form g(x1,...,xs)g(x_1,...,x_s) of degree dd, having coefficients in the completion Fq((1/t))F_q((1/t)) of the field of fractions Fq(t)F_q(t) associated to the finite field FqF_q. We establish that whenever s>d2s>d^2, then the form gg takes arbitrarily small values for non-zero arguments x∈Fq[t]sx\in F_q[t]^s. We provide related results for problems involving distribution modulo Fq[t]F_q[t], and analogous conclusions for quasi-algebraically closed fields in general.
