Explanation legend Lean4 Domain Explanation Language (L4DEL)

L4DEL explanations are a separate layer. They do not change the Lean source. Intuition is explanatory prose; numbered items are a reading path; sources link the wording back to evidence.

    We say that $A\subset \mathbb{N}$ is an essential component if $d_s(A \oplus B)>d_s(B)$ for every $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ with $0<d_s(B)<1$ where $d_s$ is the Schnirelmann density. Here, the sumset is the appropriate one for Schnirelmann density, $A \oplus B = \{a+b \mid a \in A \cup \{0\}, b \in B \cup \{0\}\}$ (i.e. $(A \cup \{0\}) + (B \cup \{0\})$). This avoids the trivial case where the sumset misses $1$ simply because neither $A$ nor $B$ contains $0$.

    Is $B=\{2^m3^n : m,n\geq 0\}$ an essential component?

    In [Ru99] Ruzsa states "The simplest set with a chance to be an essential component is the collection of numbers in the form $2^m3^n$ and Erdős often asked whether it is an essential component or not; I do not even have a plausible guess."
