Erdős problem 349

For 0<α≤10 < \alpha \le 1 and any t>0t > 0, (t,α)(t, \alpha) is not a good pair: every term ⌊tαn⌋\lfloor t\alpha^n\rfloor lies in the finite interval [0,⌊t⌋][0, \lfloor t\rfloor] (since αn≤1\alpha^n \le 1), so every subset sum is bounded by the constant ∑i∈[0,⌊t⌋]i\sum_{i \in [0,\lfloor t\rfloor]} i, and no large integer can be a subset sum. A partial result on the open Erdős Problem 349, complementing the 2<α2 < \alpha and integer-coefficient cases.

Is it true that the terms of the sequence ⌊(3/2)n⌋\lfloor (3/2)^n\rfloor are even infinitely often?
