    Abc Conjecture

    Statement

    For any ϵ>0, there exists a constant C_ϵ such that for any three relatively prime integers a, b, c satisfying a + b = c, the inequality max( left bracketing bar a right bracketing bar , left bracketing bar b right bracketing bar , left bracketing bar c right bracketing bar )<=C_ϵ product_(p|abc)p^(1 + ϵ) holds.

    Formal statement

    for all _(ϵ, ϵ>0)exists_(C_ϵ) for all _({a, b, c}, (a, b, c) element Z^3 ∧ gcd(a, b, c) = 1 ∧ a + b = c)max( left bracketing bar a right bracketing bar , left bracketing bar b right bracketing bar , left bracketing bar c right bracketing bar )<=C_ϵexp( sum_(n∣abc ∧ n element P)(1 + ϵ)log(n))
