The conjectural recursive upper bound for Schur numbers

About 6 years old · traced to

For n≥2n\ge 2, let S(n)S(n) denote the nnth Schur number. The recursive Schur-number upper-bound conjecture.

S(n)≤n(S(n−1)+1)for all n≥2.S(n)\le n\bigl(S(n-1)+1\bigr)\qquad\text{for all }n\ge 2.

This conjecture follows from the preceding conjecture on L(n)L(n) together with the paper's upper-bound theorem, and it is verified in the source for 2≤n≤52\le n\le 5.
