Infinitely many lengths with exactly very odd sequences
Infinitely many lengths with exactly very odd sequences
For each natural number , let denote the number of very odd binary sequences of length . For an integer , consider the level set of lengths satisfying . The infinitude conjecture. For every , there are infinitely many integers such that
This is proposed as a strengthening of the known fact that each such level set is nonempty. The paper explains that the claim would follow from the existence of infinitely many suitable non-Wieferich primes, a statement related to Artin's primitive root conjecture and currently unproved.
