Abstract: For every $kinmathbbN$, we produce a set of integers which is $k$-recurrent but not $(k+1)$-recurrent. This extends a result of Furstenberg who produced a 1-recurrent set which is not 2-recurrent. We discuss a similar result for convergence of multiple ergodic averages. Finally, we also point out a combinatorial consequence related to Szemer' edi's theorem.
