The quantitative Schmidt conjecture for dimensions of k-singular matrices

About 7 years old · traced to

For integers m,nm,n with (m,n)≠(1,1)(m,n)\neq(1,1), let fm,n(k)=mn−k(m+n−k)mn(m+n)2−{kmm+n}{knm+n}f_{m,n}(k)=mn-\frac{k(m+n-k)mn}{(m+n)^2}-\left\{\frac{km}{m+n}\right\}\left\{\frac{kn}{m+n}\right\}, where {x}\{x\} denotes the fractional part of xx. Let a matrix be kk-singular when it satisfies the successive-minima condition referred to in the source. Quantitative Schmidt conjecture. For every 2≤k≤m+n−12\leq k\leq m+n-1, the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of the set of kk-singular m×nm\times n matrices are both

max⁡(fm,n(k),fm,n(k−1)).\max\big(f_{m,n}(k),f_{m,n}(k-1)\big).

The paper proves the corresponding lower bound and conjectures its optimality for both dimensions.
