Claim. The formal-conjectures pull request #6509, opened by the GitHub user Sanexxxx777 and merged on 23 September 2026, replaces the sorry of erdos_885.variants.k_eq_4 with a proof. The proof exhibits the integers 6598462565984625, 508032000508032000, 15789634561578963456 and 25056640002505664000 and shows that 50405040, 2772027720, 6888068880 and 164976164976 lie in all four factor difference sets, each membership by writing N=b(b+d)N=b(b+d) for an explicit bb. This answers Problem 885 yes for k=4k=4, by a witness independent of Bremner's construction (claim page). The memberships check by computation.

Covers. The instance k=4k=4.

Depends on. No page of this wiki.

Acceptance. None. The corpus has not built this Lean file, so the page lists no formalized evidence; the instance is settled independently by Bremner's refereed paper.
