Infinite collision conjecture over the algebraic closure of a finite field
Let be an integer that is not a power of , and let . For each , let , and define
Infinite collision conjecture. The set is infinite. The conjecture reverses the expectation stated immediately beforehand, which predicted finiteness when ; the source reports extensive computation but gives no proof or resolution.
