Erdős Problem 480 #

Let $x_1,x_2,\dots \in [0, 1]$ be an infinite sequence. Is it true that there are infinitely many $m, n$ such that $|x_{m+n} - x_m| \le \frac 1 {\sqrt 5 n}$?
This was proved Chung and Graham.
For any $ϵ>0$ there must exist some $n$ such that there are infinitely many $m$ for which $|x_{m+n} - x_m| < \frac 1 {(c-ϵ)n}$, where $c= 1 + \sum_{k \ge 1} \frac 1 {F_{2k}} =2.535370508\dots$ and $F_m$ is the $m$th Fibonacci number. This constant is best possible.
