Beresnevich–Haynes–Velani inhomogeneous Gallagher conjecture

Let ψ:N[0,)\psi:\mathbb N\to[0,\infty) be an approximating function, let \bfthetaRd\bftheta\in\mathbb R^d, and let \WWψ,\bfthetadRd\WW^d_{\psi,\bftheta}\subset\mathbb R^d denote the set of points \xx\xx for which qx1θ1qxdθd<ψ(q)\|qx_1-\theta_1\|\cdots\|qx_d-\theta_d\|<\psi(q) for infinitely many qNq\in\mathbb N. Write \Id=[0,1]d\I^d=[0,1]^d, and normalize dd-dimensional Hausdorff measure so that \HHd(\Id)=1\HH^d(\I^d)=1. Beresnevich–Haynes–Velani conjecture. For every approximating function ψ\psi,

\HHd(\WWψ,\bfthetad\Id)=1ifq=1ψ(q)logd1(q)=.\HH^d(\WW^d_{\psi,\bftheta}\cap\I^d)=1\quad\text{if}\quad\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}\psi(q)\log^{d-1}(q)=\infty.

The convergence counterpart follows from the first Borel–Cantelli lemma, while the divergence statement is the inhomogeneous analogue of Gallagher's zero–full law and was presented as an open problem.
