Abstract
Based on work of P. Balister, B. Bollobás, R. Morris, J. Sahasrabudhe and M. Tiba [5], we show that if a covering system has distinct
squarefree moduli, then the minimum modulus is at most 118. We also show
that in general the \(k\)-th smallest modulus in a covering system with distinct moduli (provided it is required for the covering) is bounded by an absolute constant.
基于P. Balister, B. Bollobás, R. Morris, J. Sahasrabudhe和M. Tiba[5]的工作,我们证明了如果覆盖系统具有不同的无平方模量,则最小模量最多为118。我们还表明,在具有不同模的覆盖系统中(如果覆盖需要它),通常\(k\) -最小模是由一个绝对常数限定的。
