The Littlewood Conjecture, proposed by UK mathematician John Littewood in 1930, states that for any two real numbers α and β,
$${\displaystyle \liminf _{n\to \infty }\ n\,\Vert n\alpha \Vert \,\Vert n\beta \Vert =0,}$$
where $${\displaystyle \Vert x\Vert :=\min(|x-\lfloor x\rfloor |,|x-\lceil x\rceil |)}$$ is the distance to the nearest integer.
In plain language :
Any two real numbers α and β can be simultaneously approximated at least moderately well by rationals… - The Newman conjectureplugin-autotooltip__plain plugin-autotooltip_bigThe Newman conjecture
The Newman conjecture was created by Morris Newman in 1960. It remains unsolved.
It's stated formally as :
For any integers m and r such that $${\displaystyle 0\leq r\leq m-1}$$ $${\displaystyle 0\leq r\leq m-1}$$the value of the partition function $${\displaystyle p(n)}$$ satisfies the congruence $${\displaystyle p(n)\equiv r{\pmod {m}}}$$ for infinitely many non-negative integers - sidebarplugin-autotooltip__plain
