Allen–Ramírez conjecture for the inhomogeneous Khintchine–Groshev theorem

About 2 years old · traced to

For positive integers n,mn,m, a function ψ:N→R≥0\psi: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}, and an inhomogeneous parameter y∈Rm\mathbf{y} \in \mathbb{R}^m, let An,my(ψ)\mathscr{A}^\mathbf{y}_{n,m}(\psi) be the set of x∈[0,1)nm\mathbf{x} \in [0,1)^{nm} such that

∣qx−p−y∣<ψ(∣q∣)|\mathbf{qx} - \mathbf{p} - \mathbf{y}| < \psi(|\mathbf{q}|)

for infinitely many (q,p)∈(Zn∖0)×Zm(\mathbf{q}, \mathbf{p}) \in (\mathbb{Z}^n \setminus \\{\mathbf{0}\\}) \times \mathbb{Z}^m, where x\mathbf{x} is an n×mn \times m matrix and ∣⋅∣|\cdot| is the maximum norm. Let ∣⋅∣|\cdot| also denote Lebesgue measure. Allen–Ramírez conjecture. If (n,m)=(1,2)(n,m)=(1,2) or (2,1)(2,1), then

∣An,my(ψ)∣={0if ∑q=1∞qn−1ψ(q)m<∞,1if ∑q=1∞qn−1ψ(q)m=∞.|\mathscr{A}_{n,m}^\mathbf{y}(\psi)|=\begin{cases}0 & \text{if } \displaystyle\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}q^{n-1}\psi(q)^m<\infty,\\\\1 & \text{if } \displaystyle\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}q^{n-1}\psi(q)^m=\infty. \end{cases}

Thus the divergence conclusion should hold without assuming that ψ\psi is monotonic. Allen and Ramírez proved the corresponding inhomogeneous theorem for nm≥3nm\geq 3, while monotonicity is known to be necessary in the (1,1)(1,1) case; the nm=2nm=2 cases remain open in the supplied source.
