Erdős Problem 889

Let v(n,k)v(n,k) count the prime factors of n+kn+k which do not divide n+in+i for 0i<k0\leq i < k. Is it true that v0(n)=maxk0v(n,k)v_0(n)=\max_{k\geq 0}v(n,k)\to \infty as nn\to \infty?

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.
