Popis: Sidon sets are those sets such that the sums of two of its elements never coincide. They go back to the 30s when Sidon asked for the maximal size of a subset of consecutive integers with that property. This question is now answered in a satisfactory way. Their natural generalization, called B 2 [g] sets and defined by the fact that there are at most g ways (up to reordering the summands) to represent a given integer as a sum of two elements of the set, are much more difficult to handle and not as well understood. In this article, using a numerical approach, we improve the best upper estimates on the size of a B 2 [g] set in an interval of integers in the cases g = 2, 3, 4 and 5.
