Abstract: How small can a set be while containing many configurations? Following up on earlier work of ErdH os and Kakutani cite{MR0089886}, M'ath'e cite{MR2822418} and Molter and Yavicoli cite{Molter}, we address the question in two directions. On one hand, if a subset of the real numbers contains an affine copy of all bounded decreasing sequences, then we show that such subset must be somewhere dense. On the other hand, given a collection of convergent sequences with prescribed decay, there is a closed and nowhere dense subset of the reals that contains an affine copy of every sequence in that collection.
