Smooth discrepancy unboundedness under a nonintegral product-of-forms condition

About 2 years old · traced to

Let Lk\mathscr L_k denote the space of lattices of the form AZkA\mathbb Z^k with A∈SLk(R)A \in \mathrm{SL}_k(\mathbb R), and let k⩾3k \geqslant 3. Let ff be the product of the linear forms defined by the rows of (A−1)T(A^{-1})^T, and assume that ff is not proportional to a polynomial with integer coefficients. Let ϕ:[1,∞)→[1,∞)\phi:[1,\infty)\to[1,\infty) be non-decreasing and satisfy the paper's doubling and lattice Diophantine lower-bound conditions. Let ω∈Gk,ℓ\boldsymbol{\omega}\in\mathcal G_{k,\ell}, with ℓ\ell satisfying the paper's smoothness condition. Smooth discrepancy unboundedness conjecture.

Dω(Λ;N) is an unbounded function of N.D_{\boldsymbol{\omega}}(\Lambda;N) \text{ is an unbounded function of }N.

The paper presents this as a refinement of the two preceding conjectures, using smooth lattice discrepancy to strengthen their expected unboundedness consequence. The supplied excerpt does not establish the refinement.
