Abstract:
Let ${\lambda _1}, \ldots ,{\lambda _8}$ be any nonzero real numbers such that not all ${\lambda _j}$ are of the same sign and not all ratios ${\lambda _j}/{\lambda _k}$ are rational. If $\eta ,\alpha$ are any real numbers with $0 < \alpha < 3/70$ then $|\eta + \Sigma _{j = 1}^8{\lambda _j}n_j^3| < {(\max {n_j})^{ - \alpha }}$ has infinitely many solutions in positive integers ${n_j}$.References
