Abstract

As it follows from the theory of almost periodic functions the set of integer solutions qq to the Kronecker system ωjqθj<ε(mod1)|\omega_{j} q - \theta_{j}| < \varepsilon \pmod 1, j=1,,mj=1,\ldots,m, where 1,ω1,,ωm1,\omega_{1},\ldots,\omega_{m} are linearly independent over Q\mathbb{Q}, is relatively dense in R\mathbb{R}. The latter means that there is L(ε)>0L(\varepsilon)>0 such that any segment of length L(ε)L(\varepsilon) contains at least one integer solution to the Kronecker system. We give some lower and upper non-effective (asymptotic) estimates for L(ε)L(\varepsilon) and, in particular, show that L(ε)=(1ε)m+o(1)L(\varepsilon) = \left(\frac{1}{\varepsilon}\right)^{m+o(1)} as ε0\varepsilon \to 0 for many cases, including algebraic numbers as well as badly approximable numbers. We use methods of dimension theory and Diophantine approximations of mm-tuples satisfying the Diophantine condition.
