Irrationality-exponent sets product-dimension bounds conjecture

At least 5 years old · documented by

For λ∈[2,∞]\lambda\in[2,\infty], let Wλ\mathscr{W}_\lambda denote the set of real numbers with the corresponding irrationality exponent, and let n≥1n\geq 1. The irrationality-exponent product-dimension conjecture. For any λ0,…,λn−1∈[2,∞]\lambda_0,\ldots,\lambda_{n-1}\in[2,\infty],

n−1+2max⁡0≤i≤n−1λi≥dim⁡(∏i=0n−1Wλi)≥max⁡{n−1,  2∑i=1nλi−1}.n-1+\frac{2}{\max_{0\leq i\leq n-1}\lambda_i}\geq\dim\left(\prod_{i=0}^{n-1}\mathscr{W}_{\lambda_i}\right)\geq\max\left\{n-1,\;2\sum_{i=1}^{n}\lambda_i^{-1}\right\}.

In particular, when all λi\lambda_i are sufficiently large compared with nn,

dim⁡(∏i=0n−1Wλi)>∑i=0n−1dim⁡(Wλi),\dim\left(\prod_{i=0}^{n-1}\mathscr{W}_{\lambda_i}\right)>\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}\dim(\mathscr{W}_{\lambda_i}),

and

lim⁡max⁡λi→∞dim⁡(∏i=0n−1Wλi)=n−1,\lim_{\max\lambda_i\to\infty}\dim\left(\prod_{i=0}^{n-1}\mathscr{W}_{\lambda_i}\right)=n-1,

with the limit understood as in the source theorem. The analogous bounds for restricted-rational sets are proved in the paper, while these unrestricted-rational assertions are formulated as a conjecture.
