Let be an abelian group and be integers. A set is a -set if given any set with , and any set , at least one of the translates is not contained in . For any , we prove that if is a -set in , then . We show that for any integer , there is a -set with . We also show that for any odd prime , there is a -set with , which is asymptotically best possible. Using the projective norm graphs from extremal graph theory, we show that for each integer , there is a -set with . A set is a weak -set if we add the condition that the translates are all pairwise disjoint. We use the probabilistic method to construct weak -sets in for any . Lastly we obtain upper bounds on infinite -sequences. We prove that for any infinite -sequence , we have for infinitely many , where .
