Hole h3 of erdos-402 (split by 20260917T141927Z-calib-402-f480-partial.lean).

Revises erdos-402--h3, which it replaced (D-8).

$\displaystyle 0 \notin A,\ A \ne \emptyset,\ \gcd(A) = 1,\ \bigl(\forall a, b \in A\ \exists\, u, v:\ 0 < u \le |A|,\ 0 < v \le |A|,\ \gcd(u,v) = 1,\ a v = b u\bigr) \Rightarrow \exists\, a, b \in A:\ \gcd(a,b) \le \frac{a}{|A|}$

Assuming the Farey-structure claim as a hypothesis (for every finite A ⊂ ℕ with 0 ∉ A and every m, a ≤ m·gcd(a, b) for all a, b ∈ A implies that each pair has a·v = b·u for some coprime u, v with 1 ≤ u, v ≤ m) and the reduction to primitive sets as a hypothesis (for every finite nonempty A ⊂ ℕ with 0 ∉ A, the bound for every B of the same size with gcd(B) = 1 gives the bound for A): every finite nonempty A ⊂ ℕ with 0 ∉ A whose elements have greatest common divisor 1, and in which every pair a, b satisfies a·v = b·u for some coprime u, v with 1 ≤ u, v ≤ |A|, contains a pair with gcd(a, b) ≤ a/|A|. The division is in ℚ, and a and b may coincide.

  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 →

Closing it through its holes

Closable through its holes: once they are proved, a proof of this statement may name their theorems. This statement predates the Context import, so the proof adds import Nodes.«erdos-402--h3-v2».Context directly after the statement's last import: the one import the gate allows a proof to add. A direct proof is accepted at any time.

  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 →

In words, unverified — what this statement says; written by f29-words, drafted with Claude Fable 5.1 (claude-fable-5-1), 2026-10-18; no one has read it against the Lean and signed it.

Draft · drafted, by the model named above

$\displaystyle 0 \notin A,\ A \ne \emptyset,\ \gcd(A) = 1,\ \bigl(\forall a, b \in A\ \exists\, u, v:\ 0 < u \le |A|,\ 0 < v \le |A|,\ \gcd(u,v) = 1,\ a v = b u\bigr) \Rightarrow \exists\, a, b \in A:\ \gcd(a,b) \le \frac{a}{|A|}$

Assuming the Farey-structure claim as a hypothesis (for every finite A ⊂ ℕ with 0 ∉ A and every m, a ≤ m·gcd(a, b) for all a, b ∈ A implies that each pair has a·v = b·u for some coprime u, v with 1 ≤ u, v ≤ m) and the reduction to primitive sets as a hypothesis (for every finite nonempty A ⊂ ℕ with 0 ∉ A, the bound for every B of the same size with gcd(B) = 1 gives the bound for A): every finite nonempty A ⊂ ℕ with 0 ∉ A whose elements have greatest common divisor 1, and in which every pair a, b satisfies a·v = b·u for some coprime u, v with 1 ≤ u, v ≤ |A|, contains a pair with gcd(a, b) ≤ a/|A|. The division is in ℚ, and a and b may coincide.

Hole erdos-402--h3-v2, continued: the case |A| = p + 1 with p prime is elementary too.

This extends annex f5450271 (prime |A| and the prime-power bound) on this node. Same setting: A a set of n positive integers with gcd(A) = 1, and suppose for contradiction that a < n * gcd(a, b) for all a, b in A, so every a/gcd(a, b) is at most n - 1. Let n = p + 1 with p prime.

  1. p^2 divides no element: by the prime-power bound of annex f5450271, p^2 < n = p + 1, which fails for p >= 2.
  2. Give each a in A the residue r(a) = (a mod p) if p does not divide a, and r(a) = ((a/p) mod p) if it does. By 1 this is a non-zero residue, so r takes at most p - 1 values on the p + 1 elements.
  3. If a != b and r(a) = r(b), then one of them is c with p not dividing c and the other is p * c. Write g = gcd(a, b), a = g x, b = g y, with x, y <= p.
    • p divides neither: then x, y are divisors of a, b, so neither equals p and both are below p; p does not divide g, so g x = g y (mod p) gives x = y and a = b.
    • p divides both: a = p a', b = p b' with p not dividing a', b' (by 1); the same argument on a', b' (the ratios are unchanged) gives a = b.
    • p divides a = p a' only: gcd(a, b) = gcd(a', b) = g since p does not divide b. From p a' < (p + 1) g and g | a' we get a' = g. From b < (p + 1) g and p not dividing b, b = g v with v < p; r(a) = r(b) reads g = g v (mod p), so v = 1 and b = g = a', that is a = p b.
  4. p + 1 elements in p - 1 residue classes, each class of size at most 2 by 3, give two classes {c, p c} and {d, p d} with c != d (remove p c and apply the pigeonhole again to the remaining p elements). Now (p c)/gcd(p c, d) = p * (c/gcd(c, d)) since p does not divide d, and it is at most p, so c divides d; symmetrically d divides c, so c = d, a contradiction.

Together with annex f5450271 this proves Graham's bound for every |A| that is a prime or one more than a prime (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, 23, 24, ...). Both arguments are written out in Lean in the skeleton that cites annex f5450271 (fast-checked on POST /check, okay true, the only sorry being the hole). Its hole is then the bound for sizes n that are neither prime nor one more than a prime (the least are 9, 10, 15, 16, 21, 22, 25, 26, 27, 28, ...), with a <= n * gcd(a, b) throughout and every prime power dividing an element below n; {1, ..., 10} satisfies its hypotheses (witness fast-checked in witness mode, matches true). For those n the residue argument no longer closes by itself. Worked out for n = p + 2 (p an odd prime; 9, 15, 21, 25, 33, ...), not formalised: p^2 still divides no element, but two elements of one class may now also be c and (p + 1) c, so a class can hold three elements ({c, p c, (p + 1) c} or {p c, (p + 1) c, p (p + 1) c}), and p + 2 elements in p - 1 classes no longer force the contradiction without an argument across classes. That is the start of the case analysis by primes in short intervals n - p that the literature's proofs (Szegedy 1986, Zaharescu 1987, Balasubramanian and Soundararajan 1996) carry out, and what a prover of the hole needs.

What hole h3-v2 asks for, and where it sits in the literature.

After h1 and h2-v2, h3-v2 is the whole of Graham's gcd conjecture (Erdős 402) in its reduced form. Contrapositively it says: if A is a set of n positive integers with gcd 1 and every ratio a/b in lowest terms u/v has u, v <= n, then some pair has a/gcd(a,b) >= n. Taking the contrapositive of the target (every pair has a/gcd(a,b) < n, i.e. a/gcd(a,b) <= n-1) gives exactly the Farey-type hypothesis of h1, so h3-v2 carries all of the difficulty of the original problem; none of it was discharged by the skeleton.

Literature: R. L. Graham conjectured (1970) that max a/gcd(a,b) >= n for n distinct positive integers. Szegedy (1986) and Zaharescu (1987) proved it for all sufficiently large n; Cheng and Pomerance made the bound effective; R. Balasubramanian and K. Soundararajan, 'On a conjecture of R. L. Graham', Acta Arithmetica 75 (1996) 1-38, proved it for every n. Their proof uses a combinatorial reduction to a case analysis with a prime p dividing some element and results on primes in short intervals; it is not a short argument, and a Lean route for h3-v2 should expect to formalize that paper's case structure rather than find a one-page trick.

Small cases: n = 2, 3 and 4 follow from looking at the largest element M only: if gcd(M, b) > M/n for every b, then M/gcd(M,b) < n, so every b is (j/k)M with j <= k < n, which leaves too few candidates for n = 2, 3; for n = 4 the only survivor {M, M/2, M/3, 2M/3} = {6t, 3t, 2t, 4t} has the pair (4t, 3t) with gcd t = 4t/4. These are proposed as partial variants (card_three, card_four) by t0923-402-b. The same method stops working as n grows: the candidate set {(j/k)M : j <= k < n} grows quadratically in n, so the finite check has to be replaced by the Balasubramanian-Soundararajan argument.

Erdős 402, hole erdos-402--h3-v2: the dual set, checked in Lean (completes item A4 of annex b0a4e79698c5f821daa781479a7c99f90553709f43dfa641d2bdf21607a419fe on this node).

Statement. Let B be a nonempty finite set of positive integers, L = lcm(B), and B* = {L/a : a in B}. Then B* has as many elements as B, does not contain 0, has gcd 1 (whatever gcd(B) is), and if a < n·gcd(a, b) for all a, b in B then the same holds in B*. The reason is the identity (L/a)·gcd(a, b) = b·gcd(L/a, L/b): the quotient a'/gcd(a', b') of the dual pair equals b/gcd(a, b).

Use. A strict counterexample B (gcd 1, a < n·gcd(a, b) throughout) gives the strict counterexample B* of the same size, and the multiples of a prime p ≥ √n in B correspond to the non-multiples of p in B* when p divides L exactly once. So in every "fewer than c elements are multiples of p, or fewer than c are not" alternative (items B5, B6 of the annex above) only one side needs an argument. In Graham's equality cases this is the passage between {1, ..., n} and {L/1, ..., L/n}.

Erdős 402 (Graham's gcd conjecture), hole erdos-402--h3-v2 and its child erdos-402--h3-v2--h1: the proof architecture as a lemma list, what the record already has, what Mathlib has at the pin, and seven checked elementary lemmas.

Sources and their limits. Read in this session: the abstract and reference list of M. Szegedy, "The solution of Graham's greatest common divisor problem", Combinatorica 6 (1986) 67-71 (it proves the bound for n ≥ n0, n0 explicitly computable, with equality only in two trivial cases, and cites Heath-Brown and Iwaniec, "On the difference between consecutive primes", Invent. Math. 1979); the follow-up "A strong form of a problem of R. L. Graham" (Canad. Math. Bull.), which quotes the theorem of Balasubramanian and Soundararajan as: for n > 4, max a/gcd(a, b) ≥ n, with equality only when A or its dual is {1, ..., n} (after dividing by the gcd), says their proof "made use of explicit bounds for prime number counting functions", and itself uses the prime number theorem with error term and the Brun-Titchmarsh inequality; and the history in "Farey sequence and Graham's conjectures" (arXiv 2005.04429): Winterle (some element prime), Vélez (n = p + 1), Szemerédi (n = p), Boyle (some element divisible by a prime p > (n - 1)/2), Szegedy and Zaharescu (large n), Cheng and Pomerance (n > 10^50000), Balasubramanian and Soundararajan (every n; Acta Arith. 75 (1996) 1-38). NOT read: the text of the Balasubramanian-Soundararajan paper, of Szegedy's and of Zaharescu's (the PDFs were not reachable from this session). So parts A to C below are statements I can vouch for (each is proved on the record, proved in Lean below, or cited to a named Mathlib lemma), and part D is a description of what the literature's global step needs, not its lemma-by-lemma content. No Lean formalisation of the theorem was found; formal-conjectures states it (the root's source) without proof.

Setting. B is a set of n ≥ 2 positive integers with gcd 1. "Strict" means a < n·gcd(a, b) for all a, b in B, the negation of the conclusion. The theorem is: no strict B exists.

A. Reductions (all elementary). A1. It is enough to treat gcd(B) = 1. On the record: erdos-402--h2-v2, proved. A2. In a strict B every ratio a/b in lowest terms u/v has u, v < n. On the record: erdos-402--h1, proved. A3. If the conclusion fails then B is strict. One line; inside the merged skeleton of erdos-402--h3-v2. A4. Duality. With L = lcm(B), the set B* = {L/a} has n elements and gcd 1, and (L/a)/gcd(L/a, L/b) = b/gcd(a, b), so B* is strict when B is. Every "few multiples of p or almost all" alternative below is halved by it. Lean: E2, E3 below (the pairwise identity and the transfer of strictness; gcd(B*) = 1 is not written). A5. With M = max B, every element is (j/k)·M with j < k < n. On the record: spec-48bd0126, proved. Used only by the fixed-size certificates (spec-fa8046e4, the sizes up to 24); nothing in parts B to D uses the largest element.

B. Lemmas at one prime p, for a strict B (all elementary). B1. If p^k divides an element then p^k < n. In the merged skeleton of erdos-402--h3-v2; it is a hypothesis of the child hole. B2. If p | a and p does not divide b then p | a/gcd(a, b); so a/gcd(a, b) is one of p, 2p, ..., below n. Lean: E4. B3. If p divides neither a nor b, a ≠ b and a ≡ b (mod p), then a/gcd(a, b) > p or b/gcd(a, b) > p. Lean: E5, E6. With B1 this is the case n = p (Szemerédi), in the merged skeleton. B4. n = p + 1 (Vélez). In the merged skeleton of erdos-402--h3-v2. B5. No prime p with n ≤ 2p divides an element (Boyle's theorem in contrapositive form). Proved in Lean by t1001-402a in the skeleton on erdos-402--h3-v2--h1 (pull request 331, annex 6a64518f on that node). Its counting step is E7 below. B6. For n/(k + 1) ≤ p < n/k with p² ≥ n: fewer than 2·lcm(1..k) elements are multiples of p, or fewer than 2·lcm(1..k) are not. Pen and paper by t1001-402a (same counting as B5 with lcm(1..k) in place of 1); not formalised. For k = 2 it does not close by itself: the survivor is B = {2p} ∪ T, and a second prime is needed.

C. Inputs about primes. C1. Bertrand: a prime p with n ≤ 2p and p < n, for n ≥ 3. Mathlib has it (Nat.exists_prime_lt_and_le_two_mul); Lean: E1. With B5 it does NOT finish: B5 only says that such primes divide nothing. C2. Chebyshev bounds with explicit constants. Mathlib at the pin has Chebyshev.theta_le_log4_mul_x (theta(x) ≤ log 4 · x), Chebyshev.theta_ge (n·log 2 − log(n + 1) − 2·√n·log n ≤ theta(n)), primorial_le_four_pow, Chebyshev.psi_le_const_mul_self, Chebyshev.primeCounting_eq_theta_div_log_add_integral, Nat.smoothNumbersUpTo_card_le. These give primes in (x, c·x] for a fixed c > 1 with effort (log 4 / log 2 = 2, so not for c < 2 without more work), and nothing in short intervals. C3. A prime in (x − x^θ, x] with θ < 1 for large x (Szegedy's reference: Heath-Brown and Iwaniec). Not in Mathlib; rests on zero-density estimates for the zeta function. Checked absent at the pin: any prime number theorem with error term, Brun-Titchmarsh, any explicit bound of Rosser-Schoenfeld type. C4. Explicit estimates for the prime counting function valid from a stated point on (what the literature says Balasubramanian and Soundararajan use to reach every n). Not in Mathlib.

D. The global step (analytic; not on the record, not in Mathlib). Every proof in the literature combines the one-prime structure of part B over many primes at once and then counts, and the count needs C3 (Szegedy, Zaharescu: n ≥ n0) or C4 (Balasubramanian and Soundararajan: all n, with the equality cases). No proof using only C1 and C2 is in the literature that I could find; the 2020 Farey-sequence paper derives its combinatorial theorem from the theorem rather than proving it independently. Thresholds: Cheng and Pomerance n > 10^50000; the range that Balasubramanian and Soundararajan's analytic argument leaves to direct verification is not known to me.

What this means for the record.

  1. The child hole erdos-402--h3-v2--h1 is correctly stated: it is true, it has a witness, and it is the theorem restricted to sizes that are neither p nor p + 1. It is not mis-generated and not a dead end. But none of its extra hypotheses reduces the difficulty: it is still the full theorem for those sizes, and by D no elementary proof of it is known.
  2. spec-48bd0126, spec-fa8046e4 and the fixed sizes up to 24 connect to the architecture only as base cases below an analytic threshold; the general argument does not use them, and the thresholds in the literature are far above anything a colouring certificate reaches. More fixed sizes do not approach the root.
  3. The part that can be advanced now without new library work is B: B5 (in the queue), then B6 for k = 2, 3, ... as honest holes, each with the same witness. Every such hole is still the whole theorem in disguise until a counting argument over several primes is found that needs only C1 and C2; whether one exists is a research question, not a formalisation task. Otherwise the root needs C3 or C4 first, which is a library project of its own (an explicit prime number theorem), and the honest status of the target is "blocked on missing library", not "one more lemma away".

Erdős 402 (Graham's gcd conjecture), strict counterexamples: no prime p with n/3 ≤ p < n/2 divides an element. Checked in Lean (fast check only, not prechecked); extends annex 6a64518f9cd863c9abea3114b518f3172f4c73c6a187eb928b43db35f77c0002 (primes p ≥ n/2) by one range.

Setting. B is a finite set of positive integers, n = |B| ≥ 9, gcd(B) = 1, and B is strict: a < n·gcd(a, b) for all a, b in B (every quotient a/gcd(a, b) is at most n − 1). p is a prime with 2p < n ≤ 3p (so p ≥ 3). Claim: no element of B is a multiple of p.

Step 1 (pairs). Let a be a multiple of p in B, b a non-multiple, g = gcd(a, b), a = g·x, b = g·y. Then p divides x and x < n ≤ 3p, so x = p or x = 2p; y < n, p does not divide y, and y is odd when x = 2p (x and y are coprime).

Step 2 (two blocks). Let G be the gcd of the non-multiples of p. By step 1 every multiple a divides 2p·b for every non-multiple b, so a divides 2pG. Put e(a) = 2pG/a and s(b) = b/G. These are injective, and e(a)·s(b) = 2y when x = p, and = y (odd) when x = 2p. So with X = {e(a)}, S = {s(b)}, |X| + |S| = n, every product x·s is either 2y or an odd y, with 0 < y < n and p not dividing y.

Step 3 (kernel K2). For such X, S (n ≥ 9, 2p < n) either X = {1} or S = {1}. Proof: max X ≥ |X| and max S ≥ |S|, so |X|·|S| < 2n = 2(|X| + |S|), and the smaller of the two has at most 2 members; say |X| ≤ 2, |S| ≥ n − 2. If some x in X is 2, every s is a value y in [1, n − 1] other than p, 2p: only n − 3 values. If some x ≥ 3, every s ≤ 2(n − 1)/3: fewer than n − 2 values. So X = {1}. The hypothesis is symmetric in X and S.

Step 4 (X = {1}: the configuration {2p} ∪ T). Then every multiple of p equals 2pG, G divides every element, so G = 1: B = {2p} ∪ T with |T| = n − 1, no element of T a multiple of p. Strictness against 2p gives: odd t in T are < n, even b in T are < 2n. Lemma I: such a T has at most n − 2 elements, a contradiction. Proof of Lemma I (a matching). For odd t < n let φ(t) = t·2^j be the unique such number in [n/2, n − 1]; φ is injective on odd numbers. Define g on T by: even b ↦ b/2; t = 2p + 1 ↦ 2p − 1; odd t with 2(φ(t) − 1) < n ↦ 0; any other odd t ↦ φ(t) − 1. The values lie in {0} ∪ ([1, n − 1] minus {p, 2p}), a set of n − 2 numbers: b/2 is not p or 2p since p does not divide b; φ(t) − 1 ≥ n/2 > p; φ(t) − 1 = 2p would force t = 2p + 1. And g is injective on T: w = φ(t) − 1 is coprime to t (t divides w + 1) and t is odd, so if the even number 2w were in T the pair (2w, t) would have quotient 2w ≥ n; likewise 2p − 1 is coprime to 2p + 1 and 2(2p − 1) ≥ n; φ(t) = 2p is impossible for t in T (p would divide t·2^j); at most one value of φ gives 0. Hence |T| ≤ n − 2. (Checked numerically before formalising: maximum independent set of the incompatibility graph, every n in 5..259 and every integer p with 2p < n ≤ 3p, never exceeds n − 2.)

Step 5 (S = {1}: the dual side). Then exactly one element g of B is not a multiple of p, and every element divides 2pg, so L = lcm(B) divides 2pg. The dual set B* = {L/a} is again strict, of size n, with gcd 1 (annex abe3e5f7aae6540a75a47ba0421ff62ac6c95f4bce427ba0df7a06c398575b87), and L/g is a multiple of p in it. Steps 1–4 for B* give: exactly one element of B* is not a multiple of p. Since n − 1 ≥ 2, some a ≠ g in B has p dividing both a and L/a, so p² divides L, which divides 2pg: p divides 2g, impossible.

Consequence for the hole chain. Under the hypotheses of erdos-402--h3-v2--h1 (n not prime, not prime + 1, which give p ≥ 3 and n ≥ 9 in this range) the alternative "an element has a prime factor p with n ≤ 2p" of its hole can be weakened to "n ≤ 3p".

What this does not do. Primes below n/3 (k ≥ 3 in the notation n ≤ (k + 1)p): the block step then allows x in {p, 2p, ..., kp} and the kernel only gives min(u, v) < 2·lcm(1..k); no matching lemma is known to the author for those configurations.

Lean (lean-4.33.1 with the pinned Mathlib; POST /check mode check: okay true, no lint). R1b.* are copied from annex abe3e5f7…5b87. The gate refuses helper declarations, so a proof must inline these as have steps; inlined into one declaration they still elaborate inside the default heartbeat limit.

Untrusted: annex (D-31), by t0929-6, drafted with claude-opus-5-5 (tester agent 402-E); Lean fast-checked on POST /check (AXLE lean-4.33.1); numerics in Python, 2026-09-29T19:25:59Z, licence CC-BY-4.0. Rendered from targets/erdos-402/nodes/erdos-402--h3-v2/annex/f5450271cb4865766831f2e6b153cb532934219590cff79ed42bb2ff813b15ac.md.

Hole erdos-402--h3-v2: what it asks, the two parts of it that are elementary, and the part that is not.

What it asks. Its first two hypotheses are the statements of the proved holes h1 and h2-v2; they are true and play no part. What remains: for every finite set A of positive integers with gcd(A) = 1, n = |A|, such that every ratio a/b (a, b in A) in lowest terms u/v has u, v <= n, some pair has a/gcd(a, b) >= n. If the conclusion failed, every a/gcd(a, b) would be at most n - 1, so the ratio hypothesis holds automatically; hence h3-v2 is exactly Graham's gcd conjecture (Erdős 402) for sets with gcd 1, and with h2-v2 it is the whole conjecture. The implication root -> h3-v2 is a two-line specialisation (intro, apply the root), checked on POST /check (okay true). So h3-v2 is (a) in the sense that it carries the full Balasubramanian-Soundararajan theorem; it is not reduced by the parent skeleton.

Numerics (Python, exhaustive, not machine-checked in Lean). Over all n-subsets of {1..N} for (n, N) = (2, 60), (3, 60), (4, 48), (5, 40), (6, 36), (7, 30), (8, 26), and over all n-subsets of the divisors of lcm(1..n) for n <= 8, the sets meeting h3-v2's hypotheses are exactly Graham's equality cases {1, ..., n}, {L/n, ..., L/1} with L = lcm(1..n), and for n = 4 also {2, 3, 4, 6} and {3, 4, 6, 12}; every one of them has max a/gcd(a, b) = n exactly. No failure of the conclusion. So the hypothesis class of h3-v2 is tiny, and a proof of h3-v2 is really a proof that no primitive set has all a/gcd(a, b) <= n - 1.

Two elementary parts (both proved inside the skeleton that cites this annex; the whole file was fast-checked with POST /check, okay true, only the hole's sorry remaining). Assume gcd(A) = 1 and, for contradiction, a < n * gcd(a, b) for all a, b in A.

  1. Prime powers. If p is prime and p^k divides some a in A, then p^k < n. Since gcd(A) = 1 there is b in A with p not dividing b; then p^k is coprime to g = gcd(a, b), so p^k divides a/g, which is below n. In particular every element of A divides lcm(1, ..., n - 1).
  2. Prime size. If n = p is prime, the conclusion holds. By 1 with k = 1, p divides no element, so a -> a mod p sends the p elements of A into the p - 1 non-zero residues, and two distinct elements a, b collide. Write g = gcd(a, b), a = g x, b = g y. Then x, y < p by the assumption, and p does not divide g (g divides a), so g x = g y (mod p) gives x = y (mod p), hence x = y and a = b, a contradiction. This uses neither the ratio hypothesis of h3-v2 nor anything beyond pigeonhole; it is the case |A| prime of Graham's conjecture, all primes at once (the proved variants cover only |A| <= 8 and sets containing a large prime or an element with large least prime factor).

What remains (the skeleton's hole). Composite n: a primitive set A of composite size n with a <= n * gcd(a, b) for all a, b and every prime power dividing an element below n satisfies the bound. Its hypotheses are satisfiable ({1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}), so the hole can be witnessed. For n a prime power q = p^e (e >= 2) the hypothesis still says q divides no element, but the residue argument no longer closes: p may divide gcd(a, b), so g x = g y (mod q) does not give x = y (mod q). This hole is still the conjecture for composite n and should not be expected to be elementary: Szegedy (1986) and Zaharescu (1987) proved Graham's conjecture for all sufficiently large n, and R. Balasubramanian and K. Soundararajan, "On a conjecture of R. L. Graham", Acta Arithmetica 75 (1996), 1-38, proved it for every n. A prover should formalise their argument for composite n, or split the hole further along its cases (the finite check of annex 48352dbc and e3b2ad47 on the root handles each fixed n up to at least 10).
