Let \(\psi\) be a positive decreasing function, and let \(V(\psi)\) denote the set of points \((X,{\mathbf \alpha}) \in\mathbb{R}^{mn} \times \mathbb{R}^n\) for which the system of inequalities \[ \max_{1 \leq j\leq n} \left|\sum^m_{i=1} q_ix_{ij} -\alpha_j \right|<\psi \bigl(|{\mathbf q} |\bigr) \] has infinitely many solutions in \({\mathbf q} \in\mathbb{Z}^m\). Here \(X=(x_{ij})\), \({\mathbf q} = (q_1, \dots, q_m)\), \(|{\mathbf q} |= \max |q_i |\), and \({\mathbf a}= (\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha_n)\). Put \(\lambda =\liminf_{q\to\infty} (-\log \psi(q))/(\log q)\). The author proves that the Hausdorff dimension of the set \(V(\psi)\) is \[ \dim V(\psi) =\begin{cases} mn+ (m+n)/(\lambda+1) \quad & \text{when } \lambda \geq m/n,\\ (m+1)n \quad & \text{when } \lambda \geq m/n. \end{cases} \] This very interesting result is an inhomogeneous counterpart of the Jarník -- Besicovitch theorem.
