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.

    Are there $n$ such that there is a covering system with moduli the divisors of $n$ which is 'as disjoint as possible'?

    That is, for all $d\mid n$ with $d>1$ there is an associated $a_d$ such that every integer is congruent to some $a_d\pmod{d}$, and if there is some integer $x$ with $$x\equiv a_d\pmod{d}\textrm{ and }x\equiv a_{d'}\pmod{d'}$$then $(d,d')=1$.

    The density of such $n$ is zero. Erdős and Graham believed that no such $n$ exist.

    Adenwalla [Ad25] has proved there are no such $n$.

    This was formalized by van Doorn in Lean using Aristotle.
