1082 strengthens the bound to floor(n/2) under the no-three-collinear hypothesis whereas 89 asks the unrestricted n/sqrt(log n) bound.#91 depends_on #98 (conf 0.7) — An 'optimal' set in 91 is defined as one achieving the minimum distinct-distance count, which is exactly the function h(n) studied in 98, so 91's definition is parasitic on that minimum.#91 related #89 (conf 0.55) — Problem 91's notion of a distance-count-minimizing optimal configuration is the extremal object underlying the distinct-distances lower bound problem 89.#96 specializes #1085 (conf 0.65) — Problem 96 counts unit distances among the vertices of a convex n-gon, a convex-position restriction of the maximum-unit-distances problem 1085 for n points in R^d.#97 related #653 (conf 0.55) — Problem 97's count of points equidistant from a point p is the multiplicity structure dual to 653's R(x_i), the number of distinct distances from x_i, since many equidistant points means a repeated distance value.#108 shares_technique #750 (conf 0.6) — Both concern forcing high-girth subgraphs inside graphs of large (here infinite) chromatic number, using the same Erdős high-girth high-chromatic-number probabilistic/construction machinery.#123 related #32 (conf 0.55) — Both are additive-completeness problems asking that every sufficiently large integer be represented as a sum from a set (distinct elements in 123, p+a complements to primes in 32).#124 shares_technique #406 (conf 0.55) — Both involve restricted base-d digit representations of integers (sums of distinct powers d^i in 124, powers of 2 with only digits 0,1 in base 3 in 406), relying on the same base-representation combinatorics.#128 related #566 (conf 0.6) — Both ask whether a local edge-density condition on every small/medium subgraph (n^2/50 edges on half-sets in 128;

139 states the bound problem while 142 asks specifically for an asymptotic formula for the same quantity.#142 related #138 (conf 0.55) — 142 is the density (Szemeredi) version of avoiding k-term APs while 138 is the coloring (van der Waerden) version of forcing monochromatic APs, two faces of the same arithmetic-progression Ramsey phenomenon.#138 related #645 (conf 0.65) — 645 (any 2-colouring of N yields a monochromatic 3-term AP) is a special low-length, two-colour instance of the monochromatic-AP guarantee that 138 quantifies via van der Waerden numbers.#138 related #142 (conf 0.55) — 138 counts N forcing monochromatic APs (van der Waerden) whereas 142 measures the largest AP-free set (Szemeredi density), the partition and density formulations of the same AP-avoidance problem.#160 related #138 (conf 0.6) — Both study colourings of {1,...,n} with respect to arithmetic progressions: 160 asks the fewest colours so no 4-AP is monochromatic, 138 asks when a monochromatic AP is unavoidable.#143 generalizes #1196 (conf 0.55) — 1196 defines primitive sets where no element divides another; 143's condition |kx-y|>=1 for all integer k>=1 is a real-valued strengthening/generalization of the no-multiple (primitivity) divisibility condition to A in (1,infty).#155 related #30 (conf 0.9) — F(N) (largest Sidon subset of {1,...,N}) in 155 is the same extremal quantity as h(N) (max size of a Sidon set in {1,...,N}) in 30, stated under a different name.#155 related #43 (conf 0.9) — 155's F(N) and 43's f(N), both the maximum size of a Sidon set in {1,...,N}, are literally the same function.#155 specializes #44 (conf 0.8) — 44 asserts the specific upper bound F(N) <= 2*sqrt(N) for exactly the largest-Sidon-set quantity F(N) that 155 defines, so 44 is a concrete bound on 155's object.#158 generalizes #155 (conf 0.8) — B_2[g] sets in 158 generalize Sidon sets (the g=1 case), so the extremal size questions in 158 generalize the largest-Sidon-subset quantity F(N) studied in 155.#158 generalizes #30 (conf 0.75) — A Sidon set is a B_2[1] set, hence 158's B_2[g] maximum-size problem strictly generalizes 30's maximum Sidon set size in {1,...,N}.#153 shares_technique #152 (conf 0.85) — 153 and 152 use the identical construction f(n) = minimum over Sidon sets A of size n of a functional of the gap/structure of A+A, differing only in which statistic of A+A is minimized.#153 related #155 (conf 0.55) — 153 minimizes a gap-statistic of A+A over Sidon sets while 155 maximizes Sidon-set size; both are extremal problems over the same family of Sidon sets and their sumsets.#172 related #1199 (conf 0.7) — 1199 asks for an infinite monochromatic A+A under 2-colouring; 172 asks for arbitrarily large A with all sums and products monochromatic under finite colouring, the same Hindman-type monochromatic-sumset Ramsey question with products added.#172 related #645 (conf 0.5) — Both are partition-regularity (Ramsey) statements over finite colourings of N seeking monochromatic additive structure (sums in 172, 3-term APs in 645).#195 specializes #196 (conf 0.9) — 196 (must every permutation of N contain a monotone 4-term AP) is the k=4, ground-set-N special case of 195's question on the largest guaranteed monotone k-term AP in any permutation of Z.#195 related #197 (conf 0.7) — Both concern monotone arithmetic progressions inside permutations of the integers;

the prime case is the canonical instance motivating Erdős's general AP conjecture.#203 shares_technique #7 (conf 0.75) — Both are resolved by constructing covering systems of congruences; 203 needs a covering of the exponents (k,l) of 2^k·3^l·m+1, exactly the covering-system machinery that 7 studies in the odd-modulus case.#203 shares_technique #1113 (conf 0.8) — 203 asks for m making 2^k·3^l·m+1 never prime; 1113's covering-set framework for k·2^n+1 (Sierpiński numbers) is the same prime-blocking-by-covering construction extended to two exponents.#203 shares_technique #279 (conf 0.65) — Both rely on choosing congruence classes a_p mod p (covering congruences) to force every relevant integer into a prescribed residue, the shared covering-system method.#236 related #9 (conf 0.85) — 236 counts representations n=p+2^k while 9 is precisely the set of odd n with zero such representations; 9 is the support of {n: f(n)=0} for 236's counting function.#236 related #10 (conf 0.75) — Both study representability of integers as a prime plus powers of 2; 10 generalizes the single power-of-2 in 236's n=p+2^k to a prime plus at most k powers of 2.#213 related #212 (conf 0.7) — Both concern point sets in the plane with rational/integral pairwise distances; 213's finite no-3-collinear-no-4-concyclic integral-distance configurations are the structured finite analogue of 212's dense rational-distance set.#241 specializes #41 (conf 0.85) — 241 (max A with all triple sums a+b+c distinct, a B_3 set) is the h=3 case of 41's general B_h condition that all n-tuple sums be distinct up to trivial coincidences.#241 shares_technique #30 (conf 0.7) — Both are extremal problems for the maximum size of an additive-distinctness set in {1,...,N};

Verified contributions.

Nine integer-sum Sidon lower bounds (n = 9,11,12,13,14,15,16,19,20), each independently re-verified, editor-approved and published. The campaign's first external adoption event.

By Hoggar's theorem a non-unimodal forest needs a non-log-concave component; swept 112,916 generalized trees + 253,695 forest products — all unimodal. The forest surface prior tree-only searches left untouched.

Erdős #302 — improved published bound

banked

f(N) ≤ (155923/180048 + o(1))·N ≈ 0.86601·N, beating the prior best verifiable certificate. Reproduced the published baselines exactly before confirming the new base.

Six verified reductions naming the missing theorem

banked

For #1094, #366, #699, #1093, #376, #488 — gate-verified reductions that isolate the exact open input a number theorist would need. Honest grades, never “solved.”

What the gate caught.

rejected before banking

Wins look like every AI-math demo. The least-fakeable proof that the trust layer is real is what it rejected — each of these was a plausible claim that an adversarial probe killed before it could bank.

A search self-reported a Sidon set beating the OEIS best by 48.

probe: Independent re-count of the witness against the actual OEIS values.

Phantom. The real improvement was 9 records — which then earned adoption.

Erdős #204 reported as a fresh result, ready for a covering search.

probe: Prior-art check before spending compute.

Already solved (Adenwalla, in Lean). Killed before the search ran.

Erdős #488 small-|A| density bound proposed as a novel resolution.

probe: Literature/prior-art check against the active frontier.

Not novel — Tao is at the general/primes frontier. Blocked.

A #1056 k=5,6 witness looked like progress toward a solve.

probe: Re-read the problem's actual quantifier (for every k).

Infinitary — a new finite example, not a solve. Graded extends_prior_work.

Honest grade ledger.

The grade distribution is the campaign’s honesty made legible: most of the work is nulls, partial proofs, and reductions that name the missing theorem — never inflated to “solved.”
