Abstract
We discuss some easy statements dealing with linear inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Surprisingly, we did not find some of them in the literature.

Audit summary
Not a correctness certificate. A “Correct” result may include yellow typos or minor formal corrections that do not affect substantive soundness. It means this audit found no unresolved substantive error under the stated criteria; it does not replace expert scrutiny or formal verification.

01Statements3 reported findingsCorrect
The inhomogeneous approximation statements, including the primitive-point conclusions in Theorem 7, are correct after two local parameter and index corrections.
Jarnik's growth estimate and transference give the claimed approximant
Pages 2–3 · proof of Theorem 3 · arXiv:2205.14961v1
Jarnik's estimate provides with . Applying Theorem 1 with and gives an integer vector with error below and for large . Hence the error is below , exactly as Theorem 3 claims.
The primitive inhomogeneous approximants exist with the stated quality
Pages 2–3 and 7–8 · Theorems 3 and 7 · arXiv:2205.14961v1
The transference parallelepiped supplies a lattice point at the required approximation scale. Adding a short multiple of a basis vector makes its coefficients coprime; the perturbation is smaller than the available inhomogeneous error in both parameter regimes.
Full paper, version 1 ↗A variable range and one endpoint exponent need local correction
Pages 2 and 7 · Theorem 3 and final proof · arXiv:2205.14961v1
The independent indices in Theorem 3 satisfy , not . In the final perturbation argument choose any rather than equality; then the residual factor tends to zero exactly as required. The primitive-point lemma permits every positive , so this change has no downstream effect.
02Proofs1 reported findingCorrect
The transference and primitive-perturbation proofs are complete after choosing the final exponent strictly inside its admissible range.
A strict interior exponent makes the final error vanish
Pages 7–8 · equations (20)–(21) · arXiv:2205.14961v1
The coefficient bound is polynomial in the transference parameter, and the coprimality adjustment grows by an arbitrarily small power. With the strict choice of , its contribution is and the stated infinitely many primitive approximants follow.
