Finiteness conjecture for digit-special integers

About 7 years old · traced to

A real number x≥0x\geq 0 is digit-special if, for every integer base b≥3b\geq 3, its base-bb expansion omits at least one digit from 0,1,…,b−10,1,\dots,b-1. Finiteness conjecture. There are finitely many digit-special integers. The paper presents this as a strengthening of its conditional theorem under Schanuel's conjecture; it remains open.
