Bremner's conjecture on additive rigidity of elliptic-curve points

Let E/\a0QE/\a0\mathbb{Q} be an elliptic curve of Mordell\a0\a0Weil rank rr, and let {P1,,PN}\{P_1,\ldots,P_N\} be a sequence of rational points whose xx-coordinates form an arithmetic progression in Q\mathbb{Q}. Bremner's conjecture. There exists an absolute constant AA such that

NAr.N \ll A^r.

This precise formulation expresses the idea that long xx-arithmetic progressions should force large Mordell\a0\a0Weil rank. It is supported by several results, and Garcia-Fritz and Pasten proved it for families with fixed jj-invariant; the general conjecture remains open.
