The -pattern conjecture
The -pattern conjecture
Let be an increasing chain of subsets of with . A -pattern is a set obtained from by a common scaling and translation; denotes the size of the smallest set of integers containing a -pattern with basepoint for distinct integer values of . The -pattern conjecture. For every such increasing chain,
This is technically a family of conjectures, one for each chain . The source notes that integer and rational basepoints give the same quantity after clearing denominators.
