  1. A least-common-multiple bound for the Erdős–Selfridge function

    Let g(k) be the least n > k + 1 such that every prime factor of nk exceeds k. Then

    g(k) < lcm(1, 2, …, k)

    for every sufficiently large k: the eventual form of a 1974 conjecture of Ecklund, Erdős, and Selfridge.

    Scope Proves the eventual strict inequality only. The order of magnitude of g(k) remains open.

    Schematic at k = 120. The proof modifies lcm(1, …, k): one extra factor of each small prime , and the primes just below k removed . Lucas’s digit criterion turns the rest into a finite sieve.
  2. A thin-triangle Kakeya construction at N = 128

    One thin triangle for each slope 0, 1/128, …, 127/128, each of width 1/128 at its base. Choosing the 128 intercepts well makes them overlap as much as possible. This choice gives a union of exact area

  3. A bounded counterexample for lacunary averages with endpoint Fourier decay

    A 0–1 function f on the circle and a sequence with nj+1 ≥ 2nj. The Fourier tails of f decay like 8/√(log log m), and its integral is at most 1/16. Yet for almost every x, its averages along the sequence keep climbing back to 3/4. This refutes the triple-logarithmic condition Erdős asked about, for every exponent.

    Prior work Boon Suan Ho disproved the question first, by a different construction. No priority is claimed.

  4. Lebesgue functions on every interval

    For any n interpolation nodes in [−1, 1], let λ(x) = Σk |ℓk(x)|. On every fixed interval [a, b],

    max λ > (2/π − o(1)) log n

    uniformly in the choice of nodes: a question of Erdős and Turán from 1961.

    Prior work First resolved by Terence Tao in 2026, with a sharper error term. This is a different route. Its key input, the de Boor–Pinkus comparison theorem, is proved in full in the formalization.

    Drag the nodes.
  5. Abundant numbers are eventually semiperfect

    There is an absolute constant C such that every n with σ(n) > Cn is a sum of distinct proper divisors of n.

    Prior work First proved by Daniel Larsen. This is a different route. Its key input, the Alon–Freiman subset-sum theorem, is proved in full in the formalization.

    Sums of distinct proper divisors of 70 reach every number from 0 to 74 except 4 and 70 itself. So 70 is abundant, σ(70) = 144, yet not semiperfect. Benkoski and Erdős asked whether enough abundance always rules this out.
