Abstract
We find upper and lower bounds on the number of rational points that are -approximations of some -dimensional -adic integer. Lattice point counting techniques are used to find the upper bound result, and a Pigeon-hole principle style argument is used to find the lower bound result. We use these results to find the Hausdorff dimension for the set of -adic weighted simultaneously approximable points intersected with -adic coordinate hyperplanes. For the lower bound result we show that the set of rational points that -approximate a -adic integer form a set of resonant points that can be used to construct a local ubiquitous system of rectangles.
