Abstract

Let N\mathbb{N} be the set of all nonnegative integers. For SNS\subseteq \mathbb{N} and nNn\in \mathbb{N}, let the representation function RS(n)R_{S}(n) denote the number of solutions of the equation n=s+sn=s+s' with s,sSs, s'\in S and s<ss<s'. In this paper, we determine the structure of C,DNC, D\subseteq \mathbb{N} with CD=[0,m]C\cup D=[0, m] and CD=2|C\cap D|=2 such that RC(n)=RD(n)R_{C}(n)=R_{D}(n) for any nonnegative integer nn.
