Abstract: In this paper we study nearly perfect sequences (NPS) via their connection to direct product difference sets (DPDS). We prove the connection between a $p$-ary NPS of period $n$ and type $gamma$ and a cyclic $(n,p,n,fracn-gammap+gamma,0,fracn-gammap)$-DPDS for an arbitrary integer $gamma$. Next, we present the necessary conditions for the existence of a $p$-ary NPS of type $gamma$. We apply this result for excluding the existence of some $p$-ary NPS of period $n$ and type $gamma$ for $nleq100$ and $vertgammavertleq2$. We also prove the similar results for an almost $p$-ary NPS of type $gamma$. Finally, we show the non-existence of some almost $p$-ary perfect sequences by showing the non-existence of equivalent cyclic relative difference sets by using the notion of multipliers.
