Erdős Problem 39

Is there an infinite Sidon set ANA\subset \mathbb{N} such that A{1,N}ϵN1/2ϵ\lvert A\cap \{1\ldots,N\}\rvert \gg_\epsilon N^{1/2-\epsilon} for all ε>0\varepsilon > 0?

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.
