Erdős problem 987 · problems.science

Clunie [Cl67] proved that there exists an infinite sequence $\{z_\nu\}$ on the unit circle with $A_\nu \le \nu$ for all $\nu \ge 1$ . Translating $z_\nu = e(x_\nu)$ , the natural domain of $x_\nu$ is the half-open unit interval $\mathrm{Ico}\,0\,1$ , matching the original [Er64b]/[Cl67] statement (any unit complex number is allowed, including $z = 1$ , i.e. $x = 0$ ).

Linear upper bound (weakened). A first weakened version of Clunie's A_k ≤ k: there exists a sequence $x \in (0,1)$ with $A_k \le 2k$ for all $k \ge 1$ . The witness is the (shifted) van der Corput sequence. For the tighter $A_k \le k + 1$ bound see linear_upper_bound_clunie.

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