Stephan's third ratio conjecture for the Pascal triangle sequence

At least 15 years old · documented by

Consider Pascal triangle modulo 22, and let c(n)c(n) be the binary number obtained by reading its nnth row. Define

l(n)=c(2n)−14.l(n)=\frac{c(2n)-1}{4}.

Stephan's third ratio conjecture.

lim⁡n→∞l(8n+4)l(8n+3)=25785.\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\frac{l(8n+4)}{l(8n+3)}=\frac{257}{85}.

The conjecture belongs to R. Stephan's series concerning the sequence {l(n)}n≥0\{l(n)\}_{n\geq 0}. The paper's abstract says that these conjectures are proved, but the supplied candidate does not include the relevant proof or resolution evidence.
