Default Re: Sklansky -Fermat Conjectures

[ QUOTE ]
Conjecture Two: If there are in fact q's for which the conjecture holds, some will be formally unprovable.

That doesn't look like a conjecture. That looks like a guess. I'd bet $1k against it, even money.


My point is that I think there are qs for which the conjecture holds for no logical "reason" other than "sparseness".

It might be much easier to show that such q's exist than to actually find them.
