A full solution has been claimed but not yet accepted. The statement is true.
Open, the site's label (OPEN; page last edited 2026-02-01). One
pending full claim is recorded:
Wang and Grau Ribas's positive-density theorem,
a 2026 preprint (later versions by Wang alone) with an author-built Lean
development stating that the answer is yes; the frontmatter standing,
claimed/proved, follows from it. An accepted partial claim page records
Erdős's 1981 theorem
for the sequences whose consecutive gaps tend to infinity.
