Visibility density conjecture for polynomially defined lattice points

About 5 years old · traced to

Let V(an,an−1,…,a1)V(a_n,a_{n-1},\dots,a_1) denote the set of lattice points associated with the coefficient vector (an,an−1,…,a1)(a_n,a_{n-1},\dots,a_1), and let dens⁡\operatorname{dens} denote its density. Visibility density conjecture. For every coefficient vector other than (1,0,…,0)(1,0,\dots,0),

dens⁡(V(an,an−1,…,a1))=1.\operatorname{dens}(V(a_n,a_{n-1},\dots,a_1))=1.

The preceding results provide lower bounds for these densities and show that the exceptional vector (1,0,…,0)(1,0,\dots,0) has density 1/ζ(n+1)1/\zeta(n+1). Numerical experiments motivate the conjecture that all other coefficient vectors have full density.
