Abstract

A very special case of one of the theorems of the authors states as follows: Let 1≤a 1a 2≤... be an infinite sequence of integers for which all the sumsa i +a j , 1≤ij, are distinct. Then there are infinitely many integersk for which 2k can be represented in the forma i +a j but 2k+1 cannot be represented in this form. Several unsolved problems are stated.
