Abstract

In this paper, we study inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation over the completion KvK_v of a global function field KK (over a finite field) for a discrete valuation vv, with affine algebra RvR_v. We obtain an effective upper bound for the Hausdorff dimension of the set BadA(ϵ)={θKvm:lim inf(p,q)Rvm×Rvn,qqnAqθpmϵ}, \mathbf{Bad}_A(\epsilon)=\left\{\boldsymbol{\theta}\in K_v^{\,m} : \liminf_{(\mathbf{p},\mathbf{q})\in R_v^{\,m} \times R_v^{\,n}, \|\mathbf{q}\|\to \infty} \|\mathbf{q}\|^n \|A\mathbf{q}-\boldsymbol{\theta}-\mathbf{p}\|^m \geq \epsilon \right\}, of ϵ\epsilon-badly approximable targets θKvm\boldsymbol{\theta}\in K_v^{\,m} for a fixed matrix AMm,n(Kv)A\in\mathscr{M}_{m,n}(K_v), using an effective version of entropy rigidity in homogeneous dynamics for an appropriate diagonal action on the space of RvR_v-grids. We further characterize matrices AA for which BadA(ϵ)\mathbf{Bad}_A(\epsilon) has full Hausdorff dimension for some ϵ>0\epsilon>0 by a Diophantine condition of singularity on average. Our methods also work for the approximation using weighted ultrametric distances.
