Finiteness conjecture for binomial near collisions of fixed difference
Finiteness conjecture for binomial near collisions of fixed difference
A binomial near collision is a quadruple with , , and
with . Here is the positive difference between the two binomial coefficients.
Fixed-difference finiteness conjecture. Given a fixed difference , the number of near collisions with difference is finite.
This generalizes the preceding difference-one completeness conjecture from a classification claim to a finiteness claim for every fixed positive difference. The source provides no proof or resolution.
