Proximity Inversion Functions on the Non-Negative Integers

Discrete Mathematics 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We consider functions mapping non-negative integers to non-negative real numbers such that a and a+n are mapped to values at least 1/n apart. In this paper we use a novel method to construct such a function. We conjecture that the supremum of the generated function is optimal and pose some unsolved problems.
