Beresnevich–Haynes–Velani inhomogeneous Gallagher conjecture

About 10 years old · traced to

Let ψ:N→[0,∞)\psi:\mathbb N\to[0,\infty) be an approximating function, let \bftheta∈Rd\bftheta\in\mathbb R^d, and let \WWψ,\bfthetad⊂Rd\WW^d_{\psi,\bftheta}\subset\mathbb R^d denote the set of points \xx\xx for which ∥qx1−θ1∥⋯∥qxd−θd∥<ψ(q)\|qx_1-\theta_1\|\cdots\|qx_d-\theta_d\|<\psi(q) for infinitely many q∈Nq\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)=1if∑q=1∞ψ(q)log⁡d−1(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.
