The optimal bound for fractional Helly in ultraproducts of -adics
Let be an ultraproduct of the fields or over a non-principal ultrafilter, and let be a partitioned formula with . The optimal fractional Helly bound conjecture. Every such formula satisfies ; equivalently, the bound in the stated corollary can be improved to . The paper proves the bound and records as the expected optimal bound, so the improvement remains open.
