Exponents of inhomogeneous Diophantine Approximation

In Diophantine approximation, inhomogeneous problems are linked with homogeneous ones by means of the so-called Transference Theorems. We revisit this classical topic by introducing new exponents of Diophantine approximation. We prove that the exponent of approximation to a generic point in R^n by a system of n linear forms is equal to the inverse of the uniform homogeneous exponent associated to the system of dual forms.
