Some continuity properties of the Schnirelmann density. II

R. L. Duncan

Vol. 32 (1970), No. 1, 65–67
Abstract

Let S denote the set of all infinite increasing sequences of positive integers. For all A{an} and B = {bn} in S define the metric ρ(A,B) = 0 if A = B; i.e., if an = bn for all n and ρ(A,B) = 1∕k otherwise, where k is the smallest value of n for which anbn. The main object of this note is to show that the set of points of continuity of the Schnirelmann density d(A) is a residual set and that this is the best possible result of this type.
