Sums of Reciprocals of Fractional Parts over Aligned Boxes
arXiv:2101.11094
Abstract
In this paper, we prove new upper bounds for sums of reciprocals of fractional parts over general aligned boxes, thus extending a previous result of the author concerning bounds for sums of reciprocals over symmetric boxes. These new upper bounds depend solely on the volume of the boxes, and not on their diameter. This generalisation relies a novel lattice-point counting technique involving estimates for the higher successive minima of certain naturally arising lattices.
