Abstract
The -fold sumset of a set of integers is the set of all sums of not necessarily distinct elements of . Let be a strictly decreasing sequence of sets of integers and let . Then for all . Let . The arithmetical structure of the sets is unknown. It is proved that for every there exist sequences such that but and also that there exist sequences such that but .
