A NOTE ON ASYMPTOTIC NONBASES
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 October 2016
Abstract
Let $A$ be a subset of
$\mathbb{N}$ , the set of all nonnegative integers. For an integer
$h\geq 2$ , let
$hA$ be the set of all sums of
$h$ elements of
$A$ . The set
$A$ is called an asymptotic basis of order
$h$ if
$hA$ contains all sufficiently large integers. Otherwise,
$A$ is called an asymptotic nonbasis of order
$h$ . An asymptotic nonbasis
$A$ of order
$h$ is called a maximal asymptotic nonbasis of order
$h$ if
$A\cup \{a\}$ is an asymptotic basis of order
$h$ for every
$a\notin A$ . In this paper, we construct a sequence of asymptotic nonbases of order
$h$ for each
$h\geq 2$ , each of which is not a subset of a maximal asymptotic nonbasis of order
$h$ .
