Extract

The letters a, b, n, m, t (perhaps with suffixes) always denote natural numbers. A, B, S denote finite sets of natural numbers. |A| stands for the cardinality of A.

For a given constant c > 1 we say that the set A has property α(c) if there are at most c|A| differences a − b ≥ 0 for a, b ∈ A.
