Abstract: The number of lattice points in d-dimensional hyperbolic or elliptic shells m:a<Q[m]<b, which are restricted to rescaled and growing domains r;Omega, is approximated by the volume. An effective error bound of order o(rd2) for this approximation is proved based on Diophantine approximation properties of the quadratic form Q. These results allow to show effective variants of previous non-effective results in the quantitative Oppenheim problem and extend known effective results in dimension dgeq9 to dimension dgeq5. They apply to wide shells when ba is growing with r and to positive definite forms Q. For indefinite forms they provide explicit bounds (depending on the signature or Diophantine properties of Q) for the size of non-zero integral points m in dimension dgeq5 solving the Diophantine inequality |Q[m]|<varepsilon and provide error bounds comparable with those for positive forms up to powers of logr.
