under the given circumstances vs under a given circumstances

The correct phrase is 'under the given circumstances.' The use of the definite article 'the' is necessary before 'given circumstances' to indicate a specific set of circumstances. 'Under a given circumstances' is incorrect as 'a' should not be used in this context.
