Lagrange-like spectrum of perfect additive complements

Number Theory 2023-10-11 v2

Abstract

Two infinite sets AA and BB of non-negative integers are called \emph{perfect additive complements of non-negative integers}, if every non-negative integer can be uniquely expressed as the sum of elements from AA and BB. In this paper, we define a Lagrange-like spectrum of the perfect additive complements (L\mathfrak{L} for short). As a main result, we obtain the smallest accumulation point of the set L\mathfrak{L} and prove that the set L\mathfrak{L} is closed. Other related results and problems are also contained.
