Keywords: monochromatic diffsequences; primes

Concavity of van der Waerden numbers ★★

Author(s): Landman

For $ k $ and $ \ell $ positive integers, the (mixed) van der Waerden number $ w(k,\ell) $ is the least positive integer $ n $ such that every (red-blue)-coloring of $ [1,n] $ admits either a $ k $-term red arithmetic progression or an $ \ell $-term blue arithmetic progression.

Conjecture   For all $ k $ and $ \ell $ with $ k \geq \ell $, $ w(k,\ell) \geq w(k+1,\ell-1) $.

Keywords: arithmetic progression; van der Waerden

The large sets conjecture ★★★

Author(s): Brown; Graham; Landman

Conjecture   If $ A $ is 2-large, then $ A $ is large.

Keywords: 2-large sets; large sets
