Abstract:
A weakly complete sequence is an increasing sequence of positive
integers such that every sufficiently large integer can be
written as a sum of distinct terms of the sequence. In this article,
we give a partial proof of a conjecture of Paul giving a formula for
weakly complete sequences formed using a natural procedure.
