Summary of results. The principal result of this paper is as follows: given any set of real numbers z1, z2, & , zn and an integer t we can find an integer and a set of integers p1, p2 & , pn such that

(0.11).

Also, if n = 2, we can, given t, produce numbers z1 and z2 such that

(0.12)

This supersedes the results of Nils Pipping (Acta Aboensis, vol. 13, no. 9, 1942) that there is a q satisfying (0.11) such that , and also the classical result of Dirichlet that there is such a q less than tn.
