Argue indirectly. Agree, as usual, that the empty sum is 0 to consider rationals in [0,1); adjoining 0 causes no harm, since ∑x∈F1/x=0 for no nonempty finite subset F of S. For every rational r in [0,1), let Fr be the unique finite subset of S such that
x∈Fr∑x1=r.
The argument hinges on the lemma below.
Lemma. If x is a member of S and q and r are rationals in [0,1) such that q−r=1/x, then x is a member of Fq if and only if it is not one of Fr.
Proof. If x is a member of Fq, then
y∈Fq∖{x}∑y1=y∈Fq∑y1−x1=q−x1=y∈Fr∑y1,
so Fr=Fq∖{x}, and x is not a member of Fr. Conversely, if x is not a member of Fr, then
y∈Fr∪{x}∑y1=y∈Fr∑y1+x1=r+x1=q=y∈Fq∑y1,
so Fq=Fr∪{x}, and x is a member of Fq. □
Consider now an element x of S and a positive rational r<1. Let n=[rx] and consider the sets Fr−k/x, k=1,…,n. Since
0≤r−xn<x1,
the set Fr−n/x does not contain x, and a repeated application of the lemma shows that the Fr−(n−2k)/x do not contain x, whereas the Fr−(n−2k−1)/x do. Consequently, x is a member of Fr if and only if n is odd.
Finally, consider F2/3. By the preceding, [2x/3] is odd for each x in F2/3, so 2x/3 is not integral. Since F2/3 is finite, there exists a positive rational ϵ such that [(2/3−ϵ)x]=[2x/3] for all x in F2/3. This implies that F2/3 is a subset of F2/3−ϵ which is impossible.
