Erdős conjectured that for any set $A\,\subseteq \,\mathbb{N}$ with positive lower asymptotic density, there are infinite sets $B,\,C\,\subseteq \,\mathbb{N}$ such that $B\,+\,C\,\subseteq \,A$ . We verify Erdős’ conjecture in the case where $A$ has Banach density exceeding $\frac{1}{2}$ . As a consequence, we prove that, for $A\,\subseteq \,\mathbb{N}$ with positive Banach density (a much weaker assumption than positive lower density), we can find infinite $B,\,C\,\subseteq \,\mathbb{N}$ such that $B\,+\,C$ is contained in the union of $A$ and a translate of $A$ . Both of the aforementioned results are generalized to arbitrary countable amenable groups. We also provide a positive solution to Erdős’ conjecture for subsets of the natural numbers that are pseudorandom.
