[#R1493] Work at the unresolved boundary

View evidenceOpen source ↗

1Summary

Even existence of the limit is unknown, as is its value.

Research should address this boundary directly: Even existence of the limit is unknown, as is its value.

A claimed resolution should satisfy every item below and preserve the statement's exact quantifiers and normalizations: - Prove convergence of \(R(k)^{1/k}\) and identify the limit, or prove that the sequence has no limit.

Reported evidence. Replay readiness: source only.

2Outcome
