Let be the set of integers, 0 the set of nonnegative integers and F ( x 1 , x 2 ) = u 1 x 1 + u 2 x 2 be a binary linear form whose coefficients u 1 , u 2 are nonzero, relatively prime integers such that u 1 u 2 ± 1 and u 1 u 2 - 2 . Let f : 0 { } be any function such that the set f - 1 ( 0 ) has asymptotic density zero. In 2007, M. B. Nathanson (2007) proved that there exists a set A of integers such that r A , F ( n ) = f ( n ) for all integers n , where r A , F ( n ) = | { ( a , a ' ) : n = u 1 a + u 2 a ' : a , a ' A } | . We add the structure of difference for the binary linear form F ( x 1 , x 2 ) .

AB - Let $\mathbb {Z}$ be the set of integers, $\mathbb {N}_0$ the set of nonnegative integers and $F(x_1,x_2)=u_1x_1+u_2x_2$ be a binary linear form whose coefficients $u_1$, $u_2$ are nonzero, relatively prime integers such that $u_1u_2\ne \pm 1$ and $u_1u_2\ne -2$. Let $f\colon \mathbb {Z}\rightarrow \mathbb {N}_0\cup \lbrace \infty \rbrace $ be any function such that the set $f^{-1}(0)$ has asymptotic density zero. In 2007, M. B. Nathanson (2007) proved that there exists a set $A$ of integers such that $r_{A,F}(n)=f(n)$ for all integers $n$, where $r_{A,F}(n)=|\lbrace (a,a^{\prime }) \colon n=u_1a+u_2a^{\prime } \colon a,a^{\prime }\in A\rbrace |$. We add the structure of difference for the binary linear form $F(x_1,x_2)$.
