Cusick–Wills Lonely Runner Conjecture
Cusick–Wills Lonely Runner Conjecture
Let be distinct real numbers, and write for the distance from to the closest integer:
Cusick–Wills conjecture. For each , there is a real number such that
for all . Equivalently, among runners with distinct constant speeds on a unit-length track, each runner is at distance at least from every other runner at some time. The conjecture is the standard formulation of the Lonely Runner Conjecture, and the source does not specify its resolution.
