On the other hand, if there exists some ε>0\varepsilon > 0 such that ana_n satisfies lim infan+1an2+ε>0\liminf \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n^{2+\varepsilon}} > 0, then ana_n is an irrationality sequence by the above folklore result erdos_263.variants.folklore.

The proof uses `sorry`: part of the argument is written but not proved. Lean accepts the file; it does not accept the theorem.
