Source abstract

The Lonely Runner Conjecture of Wills and Cusick states that if k+1k+1 runners start running at distinct constant speeds around a unit-length circular track, then for each runner there is a time when he/she is at least 1/(k+1)1/(k+1) away from all other runners. Rosenfeld recently obtained a computer-assisted proof of the conjecture for 88 runners. By refining his approach with a sieve, we obtain proofs (also computer-assisted) for 99 and 1010 runners.
