Tait's perfect-difference-set extension conjecture
Tait's perfect-difference-set extension conjecture
Let be a sufficiently large prime, and let . Suppose is a Sidon set of size . A perfect difference set of size is a subset of size whose nonzero differences represent every nonzero element of exactly once.
Tait's perfect-difference-set extension conjecture. The set is contained in some perfect difference set of size .
This is presented as an additional open problem, attributed to Michael Tait by personal communication. It asks whether every sufficiently large near-perfect Sidon set in the indicated cyclic group extends to a perfect difference set.
