Finding bundle
back to stateErdős Problem #442 has been DISPROVED (a counterexample is known). Statement: Let $\operatorname{Log} x := \max\{\log x, 1\}$, $\operatorname{Log}_2x = \operatorname{Log} (\operatorname{Log} x)$, and $\operatorname{Log}_3x = \operatorname{Log}(\operatorname{Log}(\operatorname{Log} x)).$ Is it true that if $A\subseteq\mathbb{N}$ is such that $$ \frac{1}{\operatorname{Log}_2 x} \sum_{n\in A: n\leq x} \frac{1}{n}\to\infty $$ then $$ \left(\sum_{n\in A: n\leq x} \frac{1}{n}\right)^2 \sum_{n, m \in A: n < m \leq x} \frac{1}{\operatorname{lcm}(n, m)}\to\infty $$ as $x\to\infty$? Tao [Ta24b] has shown this is false. [Ta24b] Tao, T., _Dense sets of natural numbers with unusually large least common multiples_. arXiv:2407.04226 (2024). Note: the informal and formal statements follow the solution paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/2407.04226 Topics: number theory. Erdős prize: no. Statement is machine-verified in Lean (formal-conjectures). OEIS: N/A.
