Alternating dyadic intervals contain disjoint IP sets
ID: alternating-dyadic-intervals-contain-disjoint-ip-sets
Let be the union of integer intervals for . Every nonempty sum of distinct has largest summand and lies in , since the sum of all smaller summands is . Thus . Doubling gives . Both sides are IP sets. Each can be adjoined to the IP-star filter while preserving the finite intersection property, yielding two distinct IP ultrafilters.
