Abstract: We consider shifts of a set AsubseteqmathbbN by elements from another set BsubseteqmathbbN, and prove intersection properties according to the relative asymptotic size of A and B. A consequence of our main theorem is the following: If A=an is such that an=o(nk/k−1), then the k-recurrence set Rk(A)=xmid|Acap(A+x)|gek contains the distance sets of arbitrarily large finite sets.


Summary: We consider shifts of a set \(A\subseteq\mathbb{N}\) by elements from~another set \(B\subseteq\mathbb{N}\), and prove intersection properties according to the relative asymptotic size of \(A\) and \(B\). A consequence of our main theorem is the following:~If \(A=\{a_n\}\) is such that \(a_n=o(n^{k/k-1})\), then the \(k\)-recurrence set \(R_k(A)=\{x\mid |A\cap(A+x)|\geq k\}\)~contains the distance sets~ of arbitrarily large finite sets.
