Erdős Problem 357: Little O Version

Let $f(n)$ be the maximal $k$ such that there exist integers $1 \le a_1 < \dotsc < a_k \le n$ such that all sums of the shape $\sum_{u \le i \le v} a_i$ are distinct. How does $f(n)$ grow? Can we find a (good) explicit function $g$ such that $g = o(f)$ ?

Statement artifacts, not proofs

These records expose exact Lean propositions and statement-only wrappers. Defining a proposition does not supply a proof of it. A placeholder-bearing target also contains no proof. Elaboration checks syntax and types; it does not certify that a formalization perfectly captures every nuance of the informal problem.
