Erdős Problem #29 — Explicit sequence with f(n)>0f(n)>0 but f(n)=o(nε)f(n)=o(n^\varepsilon)

Erdős

Let A={a1<a2<}A = \{a_1 < a_2 < \ldots\} be an infinite sequence of integers, and denote by f(n)f(n) the number of solutions of n=ai+ajn = a_i + a_j. Also I offer 100 dollars for an explicit construction of a sequence AA for which f(n)>0f(n) > 0 for all nn but f(n)/nε0f(n)/n^{\varepsilon} \to 0 for every ε>0\varepsilon > 0, i.e., for a constructive solution to Sidon's original question.
