Abstract: This paper deals with the analogue of Inhomogeneous Diophantine Approximation in function fields. The inhomogeneous approximation constant of a Laurent series

h e t a i n m a t h b b F_{q} l e f t (l e f t (f r a c 1 t i g h t) i g h t)

with respect to

g a m m a i n m a t h b b F_{q} l e f t (l e f t (f r a c 1 t i g h t) i g h t)

is defined to be

c (h e t a, g a m m a) = i n f_{0 e q N i n m a t h b b F_{q} l e f t [t i g h t]} | N | c d o t | l a n g l e N h e t a - g a m m a a n g l e |

. We show that for every

h e t a

there exists

g a m m a

such that

c (h e t a, g a m m a) g e q q^{- 2}

, and find a sufficient condition on

h e t a

which forces

c (h e t a, g a m m a) l e q q^{- 2}

for every

g a m m a

. Given

h e t a

, we prove that the set

B A_{h e t a} = l e f t g a m m a i n m a t h b b F_{q} l e f t (l e f t (f r a c 1 t i g h t) i g h t); :; c (h e t a, g a m m a) > 0 i g h t

has full Hausdorff dimension. Our methods allow us to solve the case of vectors in

m a t h b b F_{q} l e f t (l e f t (f r a c 1 t i g h t) i g h t)^{d}

as well. Our results offer a strengthening to analogues of results for real inhomogeneous approximation.
