The asymptotic basis $A$ is minimal if removing any element of $A$ destroys every representation of infinitely many integers, and so $A\\setminus \\{a\\}$ is not an asymptotic basis of order $h$ for all $a\\in A$. In this paper, a new class of minimal asymptotic bases is constructed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-25T17:06:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11B13", "11B05", "11B34", "11B75" ], "keywords": [ "asymptotic basis", "minimal asymptotic bases", "necessarily distinct elements", "sufficiently large integer", "nonnegative integers" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
