Abstract

Let nZ3.n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 3}. Given any Borel subset AA of Rn\mathbb{R}^n with finite and nonzero measure, we prove that the probability that the set of primitive points of a random full-rank unimodular lattice in Rn\mathbb{R}^n does not contain any R\mathbb{R}-linearly independent subset of AA of cardinality (n2)(n-2) is bounded from above by a constant multiple, which depends only on nn, of (vol(A))1.\left(\mathrm{vol}(A)\right)^{-1}. This generalizes a result that is jointly due to J. S. Athreya and G. A. Margulis (see \cite[Theorem 2.2]{Log}). We also generalize independent results of C. A. Rogers (see \cite[Theorem 6]{MeanRog}) and W. M. Schmidt (see \cite[Theorem 1]{Metrical}) about primitive lattice points of random lattices to the case of primitive tuples of rank less than n2.\frac{n}{2}. In addition to the work of the authors who were just mentioned, a crucial element of this present paper is the usage of a rearrangement inequality due to Brascamp\textendash Lieb\textendash Luttinger (see \cite[Theorem 3.4]{BLL}).
