Littlewood's conjecture for products of linear forms

About 2 years old · traced to

Let ff be a product of kk linear forms in Rk\mathbb R^k, where k⩾3k \geqslant 3, and assume that ff is not proportional to a multiple of a polynomial with integer coefficients. Littlewood's conjecture for products of linear forms.

inf⁡{∣f(x)∣:0≠x∈Zk}=0.\inf \{ |f(\mathbf x)|: {\boldsymbol 0} \ne \mathbf x \in \mathbb Z^k \} = 0.

Cassels and Swinnerton-Dyer derived Littlewood's conjecture from the case k=3k=3. The stated conjecture is a special case of Margulis's conjecture and remains open in general.
