Inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation for generic homogeneous functions

preprint2022arXivOpen access

Abstract

The present paper is a sequel to [Monatsh.~Math.\ {\bf 194} (2021), 523--554] in which results of that paper are generalized so that they hold in the setting of inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Given any integers n≥2n \geq 2 and ℓ≥1\ell \geq 1, any ξ=(ξ1,…,ξℓ)∈Rℓ{\pmb ξ} = \left(ξ_1, \dots , ξ_\ell \right) \in \mathbb{R}^\ell, and any homogeneous function \linebreak f=(f1,…,fℓ):Rn→Rℓf = \left(f_1, \dots , f_\ell \right): \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^\ell that satisfies a certain nonsingularity assumption, we obtain a biconditional criterion on the approximating function ψ=(ψ1,…,ψℓ):R≥0→(R>0)ℓψ= \left(ψ_1, \dots , ψ_\ell \right): \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0} \to \left(\mathbb{R}_{>0}\right)^\ell for a generic element f∘gf \circ g in the SL⁡n(R)\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{R})-orbit of ff to be (respectively, not to be) ψψ-approximable at ξ=(ξ1,…,ξn){\pmb ξ} = (ξ_1,\dots,ξ_n): that is, for there to exist infinitely many (respectively, only finitely many) v∈Zn\mathbf{v} \in \mathbb{Z}^n such that ∣ξj−(fj∘g)(v)∣≤ψj(∥v∥)\left|ξ_j - \left( f_j \circ g\right)(\mathbf{v})\right| \leq ψ_j(\|\mathbf{v}\|) for each j∈{1,…,ℓ}j \in \left\lbrace 1, \dots, \ell \right\rbrace. In this setting, we also obtain a sufficient condition for uniform approximation. We also consider some examples of ff that do not satisfy our nonsingularity assumptions and prove similar results for these examples. Moreover, one can replace SL⁡n(R)\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{R}) above by any closed subgroup of ASL⁡n(R)\operatorname{ASL}_n(\mathbb{R}) that satisfies certain integrability axioms (being of Siegel and Rogers type) introduced by the authors in the aforementioned previous paper.
