Erdős Problem #1093 — For n≥2kn\geq 2k we define the deficiency of (nk)\binom{n}{k} as follows.

About 40 years old · traced to

For n≥2kn\geq 2k we define the deficiency of (nk)\binom{n}{k} as follows. If (nk)\binom{n}{k} is divisible by a prime p≤kp\leq k then the deficiency is undefined. Otherwise, the deficiency is the number of 0≤i<k0\leq i<k such that n−in-i is kk-smooth, that is, divisible only by primes ≤k\leq k. Are there infinitely many binomial coefficients with deficiency 11? Are there only finitely many with deficiency >1>1?
