Let $G$ be an infinite group with the identity $e$, $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal $\leqslant |G|$. A subset $A\subset G$ is called $\kappa$-thin if $|gA\cap A|\leqslant\kappa$ for every $g\in G\setminus\{e\}$. We calculate the minimal cardinal $\mu(G,\kappa)$ such that $G$ can be partitioned in $\mu(G,\kappa)$ $\kappa$-thin subsets. In particular, we show that the statement $\mu(\mathbb R,\aleph_0)=\aleph_0$ is equivalent to the Continuum Hypothesis.
Keywords: $\kappa$-thin subsets of a group
Mots-clés : partition of a group.
