The Chet Conjecture for entry-wise nonnegative Chet matrices

About 3 years old · traced to

Let CnC_n denote the n×nn\times n Chet matrix, and let C={n:Cn is entry-wise nonnegative}C=\{n:C_n\text{ is entry-wise nonnegative}\}. Chet Conjecture. One has

∣C∣=∞.|C|=\infty.

More strongly,

C=N.C=\mathbb{N}.

The paper presents this as its main conjecture. Exact computations verify nonnegativity through n=21n=21, and numerical simulations support it through n=500n=500, but no proof or disproof is given.
