Abstract

Let f(x)f(x) be a polynomial of degree n1n \ge 1 with real coefficients and let X2X \ge 2 and δ0\delta \ge 0 be real numbers. Let \|\cdot\| be the distance to the nearest integer. We obtain upper bounds for the number of solutions to the inequality f(x)δ\|f(x)\| \le \delta with x[X,2X]Nx \in [X,2X] \cap \mathbb{N}.
