A Note on Additive Complements

Abstract

Two infinite sequences A and B of non-negative integers are called additive complements, if their sum contains all sufficiently large integers. Let A(x)A(x) and B(x)B(x) be the counting functions of A and B. In this paper, we extend the results of Liu and Fang in 2016 and obtain some results on additive complements. For example, we prove that there exist additive complements AA and BB such that lim supx+A(x)B(x)/x=2\limsup_{x\to+\infty} A(x)B(x)/x= 2 and A(x)B(x)x=1A(x)B(x) - x = 1 for infinitely positive integers xx.
