The perfect Skolem set conjecture
The perfect Skolem set conjecture
Let be a set of positive integers with . A Skolem set is a set for which can be partitioned into pairs whose differences are the elements of . The perfect Skolem set conjecture. The set is a Skolem set if and only if the number of even is even and
for each . This proposes that the elementary parity and density conditions are also sufficient for ordinary sets, although the corresponding existence problem for multisets is substantially harder.
