Diophantine approximation with nonsingular integral transformations

Abstract: Let

G a m m a

be the multiplicative semigroup of all

n i m e s n

matrices with integral entries and positive determinant. Let

1 l e q p l e q n - 1

and

V = R^{n} o p l u s c d o t s o p l u s R^{n}

(

p

copies). We consider the componentwise action of

G a m m a

on

V

. Let

be such that

is dense in

V

. We discuss the effectiveness of the approximation of any target point

by the orbit

, in terms of

o r m g a m m a o r m

, and prove in particular that for all

in the complement of a specific null set described in terms of a certain Diophantine condition, the exponent of approximation is

(n - p) / p

; that is, for any

h o < (n - p) / p

,

for infinitely many

g a m m a

.
