[#R1100] Current status and unresolved remainder
claim. The cited 2024 survey describes the conjecture as widely open. The source and public status were checked on 2026-07-31. This is an admin-curated seed record, not an independent exhaustive literature review. Prove the separation assertion for every n and every set of distinct constant speeds, or give explicit distinct speeds and prove that at least one runner never attains the required distance from all others.
1Summary
The cited 2024 survey describes the conjecture as widely open. The source and public status were checked on 2026-07-31. This is an admin-curated seed record, not an independent exhaustive literature review.
A complete resolution must satisfy this condition: Prove the separation assertion for every n and every set of distinct constant speeds, or give explicit distinct speeds and prove that at least one runner never attains the required distance from all others.
Supported evidence. Replay readiness: source only.
2Evidence
