The concentration conjecture for coefficient-lattice minima of four-element sets
The concentration conjecture for coefficient-lattice minima of four-element sets
Fix an integer and a real number . For a four-element subset of , let and denote the first and second successive -minima of its coefficient lattice.
Concentration conjecture. There is an integer such that, for every , at least of the four-element subsets of have ; among those with , the proportion having is at least .
The conjecture is intended to explain the concentration of four-element sumset sizes around values governed by the first two coefficient-lattice minima. The paper describes the relevant proportions as not yet proved, so the asymptotic assertion remains open.
