Abstract

The spectrum of lattice Diophantine exponents is in every dimension at least three, and the quantitative exact-order theorem supports this conclusion.
The exact-order construction realizes every nonnegative exponent
Pages 2–3 and 13–15 · Theorems 1–2 and Section 8 · arXiv:2512.24913v1
The prescribed function supplies infinitely many lattice points at the upper target scale while the two Borel–Cantelli estimates exclude all but finitely many points below the lower scale. Taking therefore realizes the exponent .

Condition (C) must compare the th convergent with , not with an unbound . In case 3, must be . The surrounding equalities uniquely fix both indices.
02Proofs2 reported findingsContains incorrect or incomplete proofs
The geometric and metric parts of the construction are correct, but the cited exact-approximation theorem is used with an unproved localization requirement. The gap has a standard verified repair by fixing an initial continued-fraction cylinder.
The quoted Baker–Ward theorem does not by itself place alpha near the required point
Pages 3 and 13 · Theorem B and conditions (A)–(C) · arXiv:2512.24913v1
Condition (A) requires , whereas the quoted Theorem B only asserts an uncountable set somewhere in . The proof gives no density or localization statement for that set. A repair is to prescribe a finite initial continued-fraction word whose cylinder lies in the desired interval and apply the Baker–Ward tail construction after that word; finite prefixes alter neither the eventual lower bound nor the infinitely many exact-order convergents. With this localization inserted, the rest of Section 8 applies unchanged.
The two Borel–Cantelli arguments and embedding estimates close
Pages 5–13 · First and Second Main Lemmas · arXiv:2512.24913v1
The planar exceptional sets have summable measure, the multidimensional boxes have the required product-volume bounds, and the coefficient count makes the second exceptional series converge under (4). These conclusions are uniform over the compact parameter box used in the final lattice construction.
