Lattice points in the 3-dimensional torus
  We prove the exponent $4/3$ for the lattice point discrepancy of a torus in $\mathbb{R}^3$ (generated by the rotation of a circle around the $z$ axis). The exponent comes from a diagonal term and it seems a natural limit for any approach based solely on classical methods of exponential sums. The result extends to other solids in $\mathbb{R}^3$ related to the torus.
