Hole h_ndvd of erdos-1094--h2--h2--h3--h1 (split by 20261015T144930Z-t1015c-a08-partial.lean).

$\displaystyle \exists K\in\mathbb{N}\ \forall n,k\in\mathbb{N}:\quad 0<k,\ \ k^3\le n,\ \ \exp\!\Bigl(\frac{(\log k)^2}{20\log\log k}\Bigr)<n+1,\ \ k\lfloor n/k\rfloor\mid k!,\ \ \operatorname{minFac}\tbinom{n}{k}>\lfloor n/k\rfloor,\ \ \frac{n}{\gcd(n,k)}\text{ prime},\ \ k\nmid n\ \Longrightarrow\ k\le K$

Only finitely many $k$ admit an $n$ with $n\ge k^3$ and $n+1>\exp\bigl((\log k)^2/(20\log\log k)\bigr)$ (natural logarithms, over the reals) such that $k\lfloor n/k\rfloor$ divides $k!$, the least prime factor of $\binom{n}{k}$ exceeds $\lfloor n/k\rfloor$, and $n/\gcd(n,k)$ is prime with $k\nmid n$. Lean conventions: n / k is floor division, $n/\gcd(n,k)$ is natural-number division, exact here since the gcd divides $n$, Nat.minFac is the least prime factor (1 at 1, 2 at 0), and Real.log is 0 at 0, so for small $k$ the exponent is a junk value ($\log\log 1=0$ and division by 0 gives 0).

  sorry
Why does it end in sorry?

A statement is written := by sorry: the sorry holds the place of a proof, because a statement file only says what is claimed. A proof the gate checked is its own file, Proof.lean. How to read a proof page →
