Erdős Problem #866

partialconfidence 70%

VibeMathed reports this item as partial. VibeMath preserves that report as a source assertion and has not independently authored a plain-language mathematical explanation.

Precise statement

Estimate the least excess $g_k(N)$ forcing $k$ integers whose pairwise sums all lie in a dense subset of $\{1, \dots, 2N\}$; in particular, determine the positive variant $h_4(n)$.

The source statement is reproduced for indexing with attribution. Mathematical correctness requires domain-expert or mechanical review. VibeMath has not independently audited statement fidelity, correctness, priority, or novelty.
