Representation functions for binary linear forms

Fang-Gang Xue (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

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 ) .
