The uniform distribution hypothesis for extremal B-star[g] sets

From papers

Let R(g,n)R(g,n) denote the maximum size of a B[g]B^{\ast}[g] set contained in {1,,n}\{1,\dots,n\}. A sequence (Sn)n=1(S_n)_{n=1}^\infty of sets of positive integers becomes uniformly distributed if

lim supnsup0α<β1Sn[αMn,βMn]Sn(βα)=0,\limsup_{n\to\infty}\sup_{0\leq\alpha<\beta\leq1}\left|\frac{|S_n\cap[\alpha M_n,\beta M_n]|}{|S_n|}-(\beta-\alpha)\right|=0,

where MnM_n is the largest element of SnS_n. Uniform distribution hypothesis. Let g2g\geq2 be an integer. If Sn{1,,n}S_n\subseteq\{1,\dots,n\} is a sequence of B[g]B^{\ast}[g] sets with SnR(g,n)|S_n|\sim R(g,n), then (Sn)(S_n) becomes uniformly distributed. The assertion generalizes the known result for g=2g=2; its resolution for general gg is not supplied in the source.
