Let \( a_1,a_2,\dots \) be an infinite sequence of integers such that \( 0\leq a_1\leq a_2\leq \cdots \) and \( a_k\to +\infty \). If \( n \) is a non-negative integer, let \( r(n) \) be the number of ordered pairs \( (i,j) \) of positive integers such that \( a_i + a_j \leq n \). Thus if \[ g(z) = \sum_{k=1}^{\infty}z^{a_k} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}c_nz^n \quad (|z| < 1), \] then \[ \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} r(n)z^n = g(z)^2/(1-z) \quad (|z| < 1). \] Erdős and Fuchs [1956] have shown that if \( c > 0 \), it is impossible to have \[ r(n) = cn + o(n^{1/4}(\log n)^{-1/2}) \] as \( n\to +\infty \). In this note we generalize their result to the case where the main term has the form \( nL(n) \), where \( L \) is a slowly oscillating function which is convex or concave on some interval of the form \( [a,+\infty) \).
