Infinite-order separation conjecture for Cantor series
Infinite-order separation conjecture for Cantor series
Suppose that is a partition of the natural numbers. Let be a basic sequence, and say that it is fully divergent when the relevant divergence condition holds for every order. Infinite-order separation conjecture. There exist a real number and a fully divergent basic sequence such that
This would extend the finite-order separation assertion to an arbitrary partition of the natural numbers. The authors call it much more surprising and explicitly hesitate to suggest that it is true; it remains open.
