Abstract
This short and simple communication is motivated by recent papers by L. Colzani and A. Kochergin. We give a brief analysis of an example by Poincaré related to sums of the type where is a continuous periodic function and is irrationaland its recent generalisations. Most of the constructions under consideration are well-known. In this note, we just wanted to bring all the results together and give a general and improved multi-dimensional formulation of a recent result by A. Kochergin, prove non-existence of a universal continuous function and discuss some of the related results in terms of Diophantine Approximation. In particular, in our opinion smoothness results involving Diophantine exponents , and had never been documented before.

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.

01Statements2 reported findingsCorrect
The constructions for Poincare-type and Kronecker sums, including the dense and nowhere-dense alternatives and the Diophantine exponent bound, are correct.
The prescribed behavior of the weighted Kronecker sums is achieved
Pages 1 and 8–18 · Theorems 1–5 · arXiv:2310.05003v2
The nested interval constructions keep earlier partial sums stable while new blocks force the required oscillation or localization. The discrepancy estimate in the final theorem converts the uniform exponent into the stated bound after optimizing the block length.
Full paper, version 2 ↗A coefficient type and one exponent sign are typos

The coefficients summing to one are positive reals, not positive integers. In Theorem 5 the subsequence supplied by the definition has lower bound ; the printed reverses the error sign. Using the correct sign and then letting tend to zero gives the displayed final exponent.
02Proofs2 reported findingsCorrect
The nested constructions and exponent optimization are complete after the sign correction in the final subsequence bound.
The smooth constructions respect the stated Diophantine thresholds
Pages 14–18 · Theorems 4–5 and Section 8 · arXiv:2310.05003v2
For Theorem 4, the Fourier blocks in (40) have the displayed decay, and estimate (43) tends to infinity exactly under . For Theorem 5, splitting the Fourier series at gives the two terms and . Using the corrected subsequence bound and optimizing yields the threshold in (46).
All limiting choices can be made in the announced order
Pages 8–18 · proofs of Theorems 1–5 · arXiv:2310.05003v2
At every stage only finitely many previous constraints must be preserved, so the next denominator and block can be chosen sufficiently large. The corrected exponent sign leaves an arbitrarily small loss that disappears in the final limit.
