On strongly minimal asymptotic bases of order h generated by powers of $2$

Abstract

Let h≥2 be an integer and let ℕ0=W1∪⋯∪ Wh be a partition into infinite sets. For W⊆ℕ0, let A(W) denote the set of all finite nonempty sums of distinct powers 2w with w∈ W. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for A=A(W1)∪⋯∪ A(Wh) to be a strongly minimal asymptotic basis of order h. This provides a complete answer to a problem posed by Nathanson in 1988.
