The union-measure form of the Duffin–Schaeffer conjecture

For a non-negative function ψ:NR\psi:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{R}, let En(ψ){\mathcal E}_n(\psi) and W(ψ)W(\psi) be as above, and define

Z(ψ)=n=1En(ψ).Z(\psi)=\bigcup_{n=1}^{\infty}{\mathcal E}_n(\psi).

Let λ\lambda denote Lebesgue measure on R/Z\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z} and let φ\varphi be Euler's phi function. Union-measure Duffin–Schaeffer conjecture. There exists a universal constant C>0C>0 such that

\lambda(Z(\psi))\geq C\min\left\\{\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\psi(n)\varphi(n)}{n},1\right\\}.

The paper proves that this formulation is equivalent to the classical Duffin–Schaeffer conjecture, so it remains open in the source.
