Regularity propagation conjecture for disjoint Golomb rulers

For positive integers II and JJ, let H(I,J)H(I,J) denote the least nn admitting II disjoint JJ-mark Golomb rulers in {1,,n}\{1,\ldots,n\}. A DGR is regular when n=IJn=IJ. Regularity propagation conjecture. If

H(I0,J)=I0J,H(I_0,J)=I_0J,

then

H(I,J)=IJH(I,J)=IJ

for every integer I>I0I>I_0. The conjecture predicts that regularity at one value of the number of rulers propagates to all larger values; it is used in the paper as a proposed structural principle and remains unproved.
