Erdős Problem 699

Erdős Problem 699.* Is it true that for every 1i<jn/21 \le i < j \le n / 2 there exists a prime pip \ge i with pgcd((ni),(nj))p \mid \gcd\big(\binom{n}{i}, \binom{n}{j}\big)?

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.
