Erdős problem 267

If n1<n2<n_1 < n_2 < \cdots with nk+1/nkc>1n_{k+1}/n_k \ge c > 1, must k1/Fnk\sum_k 1/F_{n_k} be irrational? The proposed proof closes the range 1<c<21 < c < 2 left open by earlier criteria.

Let F1=F2=1F_1=F_2=1 and Fn+1=Fn+Fn1F_{n+1} = F_n + F_{n-1} be the Fibonacci sequence. Let n1<n2<n_1 < n_2 < \dots be an infinite sequence with nkk\frac {n_k}{k} \to \infty. Must k1Fnk\sum_k \frac 1 {F_{n_k}} be irrational?
