Bukh–Balla–Dräxler–Keevash–Sudakov conjecture on equiangular-line bounds

Let r2r\geq2 be an integer. For α>0\alpha>0, let Nα(d)N_\alpha(d) denote the maximum number of equiangular lines in Rd\mathbb{R}^d with common absolute inner product α\alpha.

Bukh–Balla–Dräxler–Keevash–Sudakov conjecture. For sufficiently large nn,

N12r1(d)=r(n1)r1+O(1).N_{\frac{1}{2r-1}}(d)=\frac{r(n-1)}{r-1}+O(1).

This conjecture proposes a general asymptotic formula for equiangular-line systems whose common angle is the reciprocal of an odd integer. The statement uses nn in its formula although the surrounding notation defines the parameter as dd; this notation mismatch should be checked against the source.
