[#R134] Fibonacci constructions approach three halves

claim. The CPM 2026 construction gives infinitely many lengths with at least 1.5n minus O(sqrt(n)) distinct circular square factors.

1Summary

Charalampopoulos, Mohamed, Radoszewski, Rytter, Waleń, and Zuba construct words from Fibonacci-word blocks and prove that CS(n) >= 1.5n - O(sqrt(n)) for infinitely many n. Here CS(n) is the maximum number of distinct squares of total length at most n in a circular word of length n. This is the strongest checked lower construction and supplies the source for the conjectured coefficient.

Supported evidence. Recorded scope: the Fibonacci-block circular words W_{k,t} used in the CPM 2026 lower-bound construction.
